Implementation of Blockchain Technology for Secure Data Transmission in Networks: A Critical Review

Abstract

Blockchain technology has emerged as a revolutionary solution for securing data transmission in modern networks. Traditional security mechanisms struggle to combat sophisticated cyber threats, making decentralized and immutable blockchain-based solutions increasingly relevant. This paper critically examines the implementation of blockchain for secure data transmission, highlighting its advantages, limitations, and future potential. The discussion covers consensus mechanisms, encryption techniques, smart contracts, and real-world applications, providing a comprehensive overview of block chain’s role in enhancing network security.

Keywords: Blockchain, Secure Data Transmission, Decentralized Security, Smart Contracts, Network Security, Encryption, Consensus Mechanisms.
