Recently, we’ve started seeing more and more government institutions getting involved with blockchain technology, thanks to the latter’s virtually unlimited potential. The UK Ministry of Justice is the latest to join this race, as it is now researching the blockchain’s potential role in conducting criminal prosecutions.
BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY TO PROVIDE BETTER DATA SECURITY
The information released by Alistair Davidson in a blog post states that the blockchain network could provide better data storage for digital forms of criminal evidence such as video footage, documents, and emails. According to Davidson, in this application of blockchain technology, the ledger would be viewable by anyone, yet only modifiable and writable by law enforcement agencies. It would benefit criminal investigation teams by providing verifiable records, while also increasing the transparency of data that needs to be shared with the public.
