Frazer C. Email & Phone Number

I am currently working as a Cryptocurrency Intelligence Analyst and pursuing a part-time MSc in the Internet of Things, further exploring the core fundamentals and application of cryptography, blockchain and distributed technologies. I am currently doing my thesis around the topic of security behind interoperable distributed ledger technologies and the cross-chain applications built on them. This year, I have explored alternate distributed ledger technologies, such as DAGs, Hashgraphs and Blockweaves and distributed storage protocols that enable highly secure and privacy-focused police evidence management. Following this, I co-authored a research paper exploring blockchain scalability at both layer one and layer two for smart-contract enabled protocols. Previously, I received a First Class BSc (Hons) in Forensic Computing and Security at Bournemouth, in which my final project was a P2P standardized CTI sharing application, created using a federated Quorum Blockchain that stores a reference within Solidity smart contracts of the IPFS (Interplanetary FileSystem) storage location, all connected via APIs to a Python backend.Outside of the university, I have further been exploring distributed technologies through a variety of mediums such as podcasts, videos and online courses including a Blockchain Specialization at Buffalo University and an IBM Blockchain Essentials course.
