Exploring Blockchain Technology as a Decentralized Solution for Enhanced Cybersecurity Applications
Keywords:
Blockchain technology, Decentralized cybersecurity, Cybersecurity frameworks, IoT security, Cybersecurity challengesAbstract
The integration of blockchain technology into cybersecurity frameworks offers transformative potential for enhanced protection against sophisticated threats. This decentralized approach leverages immutable ledger systems and cryptographic techniques to bolster data integrity, authentication, and transaction security. By eliminating single points of failure and enabling peer-to-peer verification, blockchain enhances resilience against cyber-attacks and data breaches. This study explores literature on blockchain's applications in cybersecurity, highlighting its role in securing IoT networks, mitigating ransomware, and ensuring privacy. The findings demonstrate blockchain's capacity to provide scalable, transparent, and trustless solutions, though challenges in adoption and scalability remain key considerations.
