La tecnología Blockchain y su potencial para revolucionar la gestión de datos y la seguridad de las transacciones

Abstract

Blockchain technology is a revolutionary innovation that transforms data management and transaction security. Based on a distributed database or a shared ledger, it ensures a secure exchange of information. Its fundamental pillars are cryptographic security, the digital record of transactions and a shared database in a public or private network. Decentralization plays a key role 548 FIPCAEC (Edición. 38) Vol. 8, No 2, Abril-Junio 2023, pp. 546-562, ISSN: 2588-090X Nelson Salgado Reyes by distributing information across multiple nodes, ensuring transparency and data security. Each node owns a complete copy of the ledger, eliminating dependency on third parties and increasing trust in transactions. In addition, this decentralization increases the resilience of the system, preventing data loss in case of failures in individual nodes. Data encryption and validation are significant advantages, ensuring data integrity through encryption and verification through digital signatures and consistent logging across the entire network. This offers a reliable and independent way to verify the integrity of data stored in the cloud. In terms of security, Blockchain offers strong protection against cyberattacks due to the distribution of information across multiple nodes, making it difficult to manipulate data. Specifically, Blockchain technology has the potential to transform data management and transaction security. Its decentralized approach, data encryption and validation capacity guarantee the integrity and transparency of transactions. As this technology develops and is adopted across various industries, we are likely to experience significant changes in the way data and transactions are managed and secured.
