I’m excited to announce the winners of Pangea’s Health & Wealth Securathon! For our second Securathon, which ran from August 15-September 18 of this year, contestants competed by developing an application that applied to either a healthcare or finance scenario. The most innovative apps qualified for prizes totaling nearly $10,000. We had nearly 450 participants (that’s 100 more than the first) and nearly 20 qualified project submissions!
We want to thank everyone who submitted and created applications built with Pangea’s APIs. It’s so rewarding to see the innovation and effort that everyone put into creating a unique new app.
Our judging panel included our Co-founder and CTO Sourabh Satish, our Chief Product Officer Rob Truesdell, guest judge Ambika Sharma who is a Product Lead at U.S. Bank, and myself!
Judging was based on four key parameters:
Technological Implementation - Does the interaction with the Pangea API demonstrate quality software development?
Design - Is the user experience and design of the project well thought out?
Potential Impact - How big of an impact could the project have on the Pangea community?
Quality of the Idea - How creative and unique is the project?
Without further ado, I’m happy to announce our two winners!
OneStop is a collaborative healthcare app for patients, hospitals and doctors where they can interact with one another and improve the healthcare system together.
OneStop used six Pangea services:
AuthN - used for user registration and authentication
Redact - used for masking credit card numbers
Secure Audit Log - used for logging of user activities
File Intel - used for detecting malicious file objects
IP Intel - used for identifying infected devices or malicious users
User Intel - used for checking for breached user accounts
Tiny Fund Connect is a P2P Microinvesting app that enables individuals to pool resources, jointly invest in crypto and share profits; making informed choices powered by community polls and discussions.
Tiny Fund Connect also used six Pangea services (in this case they used our Embargo service instead of File Intel):
AuthN - used for user registration and authentication
Redact - used for masking credit card numbers
Secure Audit Log - used for logging of user activities
Embargo - used to block sanctioned countries
IP Intel - used for identifying infected devices or malicious users
User Intel - used for checking for breached user accounts
Lastly, we want to congratulate Vishal Vats for not only winning Most Valuable Feedback, but also for being a great Pangea community member who was often seen in our Slack channel helping others with their technical questions.
If you missed participating in this hackathon (or enjoyed yourself so much you want to do it again), we have good news:
We've got another hackathon coming very soon - this time on the Hashnode platform. Stay tuned to our blog and follow our social channels (Twitter and LinkedIn) for updates!
You can learn more about our APIs in our docs and by joining our developer community on Slack.
