The U.S. Department of the Navy (DoN) has revealed that it is embracing a disruptive new technology, the blockchain, to conduct a series of experiments to explore the potential of 3D printing.

In an announcement, the Navy said that it would utilize the blockchain technology to securely share data between Additive Manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, in addition to helping secure the digital thread of design and production.
Conducted by the Naval Innovation Advisory Council (NIAC) lieutenant commander Jon McCarter, wrote in a blog post, that the Naval Additive Manufacturing was a ‘perfect match’ when combined with the blockchain.
He said:
The ability to secure and securely share data throughout the manufacturing process (from design, prototyping, testing, production, and ultimately disposal) is critical to Additive Manufacturing and will form the foundation for future advanced manufacturing initiatives.

This summer the NIAC is expected to conduct its tests with the blockchain, which will also include a proof-of-concept. A report following the tests is to follow in September, which is expected to show a practical application of the blockchain in a controlled environment.
This is thought to be the first application of interest by the U.S. Navy as it explores the distributed ledger.
However, while it’s being used by the Navy for the first time, in the past the blockchain has also been applied for other military use.
Last October, it was reported that the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) had started working on funding efforts that would see whether the technology could be used to secure highly sensitive data from nuclear weapons to military satellites.
More recently, though, a former DoD official has spoken out and urged the U.S. Foreign Relations Committee that it must guard itself against cyberattacks by focusing more on blockchain investments. According to Eric Rosenbach, the U.S. is susceptible to a cyberattack from the likes of North Korea and that such an attack is likely to take place ‘within the next year.’
While the Department of Homeland Security has awarded millions of dollars in grants to blockchain researchers to advance cybersecurity projects.

omg are they paying you to be negative? Im just sharing content... Im new to this platform so instead of giving out negatives why wont you just enlighten me?
If I submit a story I usually but a credit or source to it. but alanajoy there is a bot that will go around and reply to posts of multiple or copied content. take it easy. If people like you feel the need to be rude. You will start chasing people away from the platform!!! I don't want another SM that is filled with nagging/bitchey people. Relax there are many new to many people, I have done the same thing. But now because of people just like you I post the org source. don't get your panties in a bunch! newspapers do it ALL Day. It's a News get over yourself.
If you post the original source "because of people like me" then GOOD. The original source is a human being who sat down to write their thoughts and ideas in a unique way, from their unique perspective and expertise. They took the time, invested the effort, and if it was published somewhere, that is also likely how they earn their living. We learn in grade school not to plagiarize, and to CREDIT THE SOURCE. IF you write it yourself and post in on several platforms, that is not plagiarizing: it is your content and it belongs to you. If you copy an article in full, do not link to the source, site the author, or even indicate you did not write it you are stealing someone else's works. That isn't negative to point out, that is incredibly productive. I shouldn't have to enlighten an adult man to not steal and pass of works that are not his, as his own. It isn't "mean". It's wanting to see the actual clever person who created the work credited properly. I would be furious if some THOT stole MY writing to make herself seem smart. Enough.
Thot? So we into name calling when i wasn't disrespectful to you in any way shape or form? I will repost everything i like with proper credits to author and site. Ill surpass you very quickly! Good luck to you and i wish you nothing but the best...
I didn't call you a name, I was illustrating how I would feel if someone did to me what you did to the actual author of this post. Had you credited your sources in the first place rather than being a deceptive thief and liar, none of this would have happened. I am not wrong for calling out content theft. You are wrong for doing it.
As for your success: best of luck to you. I am in competition with no one but myself. I write my own content and do not steal. I would rather have success based on my own intellect, and not on the shoulders of stealing from others.
Meanwhile, you have yet to update this post or any of the posts you stole. Have a nice life being a con!
Why should i when you and your band of misfits voted down on all of my post within the last 12 hours! All the content from now on will say repost with author name and site. Trust me i dont want to be on your page acting like a superficial troll. God bless and good luck....
If you didn't mean to be a content thief you'd fix it. Sorry, not sorry.
its social media, get off your high horse! If it is something that helps the community and the greater good. why bitch. Be like Tesla, be humble. I freely give knowledge all the time and when someone uses it. I don't cry. I put 8 years of cuts, stitches, negative bank accounts, debt, damn near bankrupted once, didn't get paid 15k I was owed for the work I physically did and paid for material, you name it. But do I get but hurt when someone uses my knowlage to make themselves feel better or help someone else? NOPE! I actualy feel good just for the fact that someone had to use m knowlage to help them self. In one of your articals you talk about hate. To me, you represent that well. Not looking out for everyone just wanting to look out for you and your own.
chicka chicka bow bow.
I dont feel like getting into a facebook argument with you. Im over that kind of entertainment. I could troll you all day long and take up your time but, I am turning a new leaf as the crypto cummunity has shown me much love and I whould like to see this community thrive and not cry when you dont get credit. Take your partisipation ribbon and shove it!
Here is a free tip that I won't charge you for. use Grammarly when you type. It may help from time to time. When trying to rant or post an article.
See how easy free is :P companies and people do it all the time. hell look at STEEMIT. They pay you when you get liked for a comment. and you really did nothing but spew your opinion. What if you op sucks and is wrong? You can still get paid for it.
But in closing, I hope you have a great day! don't melt out there
Yawn. This isn't Facebook. My high horse? I am a marketing strategist and a content creator. You steal from people, you are wrong. Stealing doesn't help any community, and my grammar is far superior to yours. Bye!
superior grammar? Looks like to me you have some critical thinking to do.
See I can help people for free :D
YOU ROCK!!!!!!
