Key Mechanisms
- Immutability: Blockchain ensures data integrity․ Once data is recorded, it cannot be altered, providing a secure audit trail․
- Cryptography: Cryptographic hash functions convert data into fixed-size strings, protecting sensitive information․
- Decentralization: Data is distributed across multiple nodes, reducing the risk of a single point of failure or attack․
- Consensus Mechanisms: These mechanisms verify transactions and updates, ensuring that only valid data is added to the blockchain․
- Privacy Coins and ZK Proofs: Advanced tools like privacy coins and Zero-Knowledge proofs further enhance privacy by allowing transactions to be verified without revealing the underlying data․
Enhancing Privacy
By leveraging decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials, blockchain systems enhance user privacy, data control, and interoperability․
Blockchain technology presents a robust framework for ensuring data privacy through its inherent security features and innovative privacy-enhancing tools․
