Blockchain Technology : A Tool to Secure Data

Abstract

Data security is the key to the development of modern Internet technology. The distributed, decentralized, and secured hashed mechanism of the blockchain gives a complete new point of view for the evolution of data security technology. Block chain technology is one of the major technological innovations of this century. In the last couple of years, the interest around blockchain technologies is increasing. Many implementation of blockchain technology are widely available today. Blockchain,the foundation of Bitcoin, has gain much attention in this era. Blockchain is an encrypted, immutable, distributed ledger, which allows transactions take place in a decentralized manner. Blockchain based applications expected to alter numerous fields including financial services, health care, entertainment media, Internet of Things (IoT), and many more. The Blockchain technology plays important role in the process of data security. In this paper, we will discuss about the research being done on this new domain of Computer Science. It is not only the most popular topic to discuss about, but is the most technological innovation, that is all set to reform the entire world.
