Gopher Protocol Announces a Certificate of Registration for a U.S. Trademark for PUZPIX

PUZPIX Social Media Game is Embedded with Crypto Technology

SAN DIEGO, CA, Dec. 27, 2017 -- Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" and the "Company"), a development-stage company which specializes in the creation of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies, announces that it has obtained via its agent (CTO of Gopher) Dr. Dan Rittman, a Certificate of Registration No. 5.356.006 for the PUZPIX social media game trademark. The registration was issued in the United States Patent and Trademark Office on December 12, 2017.

PUZPIX, (introduced by the Company in August 2016) is a social media game based on GOPHERINSIGHT™ technology licensed by the Company. The game uses a computerized framework to create a puzzle from images that users upload onto the system's server. PUZPIX was upgraded to support video and GPS puzzles, as announced in October 2016 and then later that month added the ability to convert YouTube video into puzzles.

GopherInsight™ security algorithm is a different approach which combines a hybrid of AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and the newest Honey Encryption algorithms. In addition to AES, high security level of 256-bit or higher, Gopher combines the Honey Encryption method to decoy intruders by providing a “looks real”, false data for every incorrect key guess attempt. The system splits (“puzzles”) the data to unlimited number of packets (of different sizes) and stores them according to its private, encrypted index, on devices that are sharing the network, worldwide.

Our Crypto-Technology system is capable of splitting and reassembling the data at a split of a second due to its advanced mathematical database engine.

“PUZPIX has crypto technology embedded within GopherInsight™ concept. This is a significant component within our microchips - encrypted, secured database management system. We implemented within our security system decoys and deception in order to develop a highly secured network protocol. Our security system provides an additional, major protection level by serving up fake data in response to every incorrect guess of the password or encryption key. Even if the intruder makes eventually a correct guess, the real data will be lost amongst the crowd of fake data,” said Dr. Rittman, the Company CTO.
