Includes bibliographical references

The purpose of this capstone project was to research how the distributed ledger technology known as blockchain can be used to prevent cyberattacks and data tampering. Many cyberattacks take advantage of single points of failure and centralization. The research in this capstone identifies these weaknesses in centralized platforms, such as the Internet Domain Name System, and expands on how a more decentralized approach using blockchain technology can reduce risk and provide validation.

520 $a Although blockchain is still a relatively new technology, the literature review process revealed rapid growth and a multitude of potential uses where the technology can provide a platform for ensuring security, trust, provenance, and consensus. The research found that blockchain can provide a significant advancement in securing technologies such as the Internet of Things, smart contracts, and digital rights management. With the initial push into blockchain technology coming from cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, industries beyond financial were examined for benefits in adopting the technology. Industries such as entertainment, law, real estate, and even government agencies are examined. Keywords: blockchain, cybersecurity, Internet of Things, IoT, Robert DeCarlo.
