Scope
Web 3.0 has arisen as the next step into the configuration of a more secure and trustworthy internet. This new stage in the deployment of web technologies is based on the implementation of new architectures for trust decentralization. Distributed ledger technologies and, in specific, blockchain are used as the main components to manage trust without any central authority. Nonetheless, the deployment of such techologies in real and practical scenarios is of problematic nature, and in many ocassions this lead to the re-centralization of decision taking. This being the case, governance and the supposed equality provided by blockchain and DLT are hindered, which eventually determine cybersecurity risks of major impact than those in web 2.0. This workshop is devoted to discuss these shortcomings and the associated cyber-risks, taking into account the current state of maturity of blockchain, smart contracts and the new governance schemes in the blockchain era.
