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 51% attacks, double spending
attacks, etc. The popularity and rapid development of blockchain
brings 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 due
to the fact that 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 with respect
to blockchain for information systems, and will be an essential
resource for students, researchers and scientists studying blockchain
uses in information systems and those wanting to explore the current
state of play.
