Right now, data is mindless, easily exposed and abused. Imagine a new Internet composed of Smart Data that remembers, keeps a secret, learns from its users, and is open for good. COVA contributes to the making of this new Internet.<\/p>\n<p>Mission<br \/>The existing Internet protocol suite provides end-to-end data communication specifying how data should be packetized, addressed, transmitted, routed, and received. However, it does not specify how data should be used. A successful data usage control would need to regulate what happens to data in the future after access is granted, which makes the problem extremely difficult and remains a last frontier of the Internet protocol suite.<\/p>\n<p>Covalent is a new addition to the Internet protocol suite that specifies and enforces how data should be used. Under the Covalent protocol, data carries a \u201csmart policy\u201d. Whereas a usual data usage policy is expressed in natural language and is only enforceable by law, a \u201csmart policy\u201d is specified in programming language and is enforceable by code.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20190806004945\/https:\/\/www.covalent.ai\/\">Cova Website<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20190528150610\/https:\/\/github.com\/covalent-hq\/wiki\/wiki\">Cova Whitepaper<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20190305141602\/https:\/\/docs.covalent.ai\/\">Cova Documentation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Social<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Internet is only as smart as the data it carries.
