Blockchain technology is an emerging distributed, decentralized architecture and computing paradigm, which has accelerated the development and application of cloud, fog, and edge computing; artificial intelligence; cyber-physical systems; social networking; crowdsourcing and crowdsensing; 5g; trust management and finance; and other many useful sectors.
Nowadays, the primary blockchain technology uses are in information systems to keep information secure and private. However, many threats and vulnerabilities are facing blockchain in the past decade such as 51% attacks, double spending attacks, etc. The popularity and rapid development of blockchain bring many technical and regulatory challenges for research and academic communities. The main goal of this book is to encourage both researchers and practitioners of Blockchain technology to share and exchange their experiences and recent studies between academia and industry.
The reader will be provided with the most up-to-date knowledge of blockchain in mainstream areas of security and privacy in the decentralized domain, which is timely and essential (this is because the distributed and p2p applications are increasing day-by-day, and the attackers adopt new mechanisms to threaten the security and privacy of the users in those environments). This book provides a detailed explanation of security and privacy concerning blockchain for information systems and will be an essential resource for students, researchers, and scientists studying blockchain use in information systems and those wanting to explore the current state of play.
