a revolutionary technology, Blockchain provides a 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 style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:black"></span></p>
