Blockchain Beyond Cryptocurrencies: Securing IT Infrastructures in the Digital Age

الملخص

Blockchain technology, initially recognized for its association with cryptocurrencies, is increasingly being explored for its potential to secure IT infrastructures in the digital age. This research paper investigates how Blockchain's decentralized, immutable, and transparent characteristics can be leveraged to address the evolving security challenges in IT systems. By analyzing its application in ensuring data integrity, confidentiality, and system resilience, the paper demonstrates how Blockchain can redefine traditional security paradigms. It also discusses the limitations and challenges of implementing Blockchain in IT infrastructure, such as scalability and regulatory concerns. The findings suggest that while Blockchain offers significant advantages, its integration into IT security frameworks requires careful consideration of both its technical and legal implications. This paper provides a forward-looking perspective on how Blockchain can shape the future of IT security, particularly when combined with emerging technologies like AI and IoT.
