practical solution to enable a secure and decentralized public ledger that a
huge plethora of exciting new technology applications in several areas, such as
the Internet of Things (IoT), Cyber-Physical Systems, Manufacturing,
Supply-Chain, etc. Blockchain technology has infiltrated all areas of our
lives, from manufacturing to healthcare and beyond. Cybersecurity is an
industry that has been significantly affected by this technology and maybe more
so in the future. Blockchain Technology is defined as a decentralized system of
distributed registers that are used to record data transactions on multiple
computers. The reason this technology has gained popularity is that you can put
any digital asset or transaction in the blocking chain, the industry does not
matter. Blockchain technology can be used to prevent any data breach, identity
theft, cyber-attacks or criminal acts in transactions. This ensures that data
remains private and secure. The main goal of this workshop is to encourage both
researchers and practitioners to share and exchange their experiences and
recent studies between academia and industry in the Blockchain field. <span></span></span></p>
