Atonomi is a security protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT). The base technology for their token offering is developed by its parent company CENTRI Technology. By connecting IoT devices without a traditional network infrastructure, Atonomi aims for an ecosystem that identifies and verifies the activities of the IoT devices within the system. The project itself is a protocol built on the Ethereum blockchain, and it aims to provide one of the most sought-after features in the fast growing IoT market: security. Atonomi has a MVP to be announced soon and plans to launch the network on May 15th.[1]
