The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Corsha, Inc. a $994,567 Cooperative Agreement under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA #47.084) program to develop performant distributed ledger technologies for cybersecurity applications. The two-year project aims to enable distributed ledgers to naturally scale as their workloads grow, reducing barriers for companies to adopt and operate the technology long-term. Key objectives include developing algorithms for context-aware transaction compression pruning and examining how different classes of applications could benefit from Corsha's novel pruning technology. This builds upon the company's prior SBIR Phase I research. Corsha plans to leverage realistic, highly scalable load-testing infrastructure to simulate and benchmark thousands of clients during this Phase II effort, which was awarded on August 15, 2024. The project will advance private, permissioned blockchains to become viable for production-scale, enterprise use cases spanning sectors like cybersecurity and finance with high transaction throughput requirements.
