What is PolySwarm

PolySwarm defines a real-time threat detection ecosystem involving enterprises, consumers, vendors and security experts.

PolySwarm functions as a prediction market with multiple micro-engines investigating the latest malware developments.

PolySwarm will assign arbitrage to existing threat intelligence vendors that are willing to maintain engagement with the PolySwarm team, help identify and address platform bugs, and help build interest in the ecosystem.

PolySwarm market incentivizes actions that incur minimal Ethereum gas cost, as well as activity on the market with PolySwarm tokens.

PolySwarm will develop a common interface and description language for publicly registering workers.

PolySwarm Roadmap

1
V0.1 Alpha

A “Bounty Manager” smart contract which holds Bounty Amounts and Fees, accepts Assertions, publishes Verdicts, and rewards accurate Experts
Artifact posting and retrieval to / from off-PolySwarm storage (e.g. S3 and/or IPFS)
Prototype algorithm for selecting Arbiters at Bounty expiration
Reference implementations for Bounty publishing, Assertion response, and Arbiter ground truth determination

2
V0.2 Beta

Offer Channels: Distributed Channel establishment, multiple Offers via a single Channel, NCT settlement at Channel Close
Reference implementation for Offer production and response
Reference implementation for Arbiter ground truth notification and response
Fee collection and distribution smart contracts
Research and quantify trust (in NCT) required for a specific Artifact volume
Offer/Bounty development toolkit: a test and implementation framework for Experts and Ambassadors to automate servicing of Bounties and Offers

3
V0.3 Gamma

Worker Description Language (WDL) describing artifact analysis capabilities and Expert authorship attribution (for reputation)
Distributed, searchable, registry of Workers and their capabilities.
Confidentiality for pre-deadline Bounty Assertions
Finalize Arbiter selection, response, and end to end Bounty feedback loop

4
V1.0 Stable

PolySwarm Stable will focus on eliminating bugs in PolySwarm Gamma prior to migration from the PolySwarm testnet (test tokens) to the real PolySwarm market.

5
V2.0 Future

Flexible Artifact confidentiality: Basic: Artifacts selectively disclosed to Experts or SaaS providers, Advanced: Artifacts never revealed to anyone outside of SGX enclaves of fully homomorphic engines
New Instruments (e.g. subscription-ready threat feeds)
Deployment support for endpoint-resident Worker containers that supplant today’s endpoint protection suites
