Block Chain

The word Blockchain will likely bring the word Bitcoin to mind and that’s ok.  There is good reason why these terms are interchangeably associated.  

In 2008 a presence by the name of Satoshi Nakamoto introduced the concept of an electronic currency by the name of Bitcoin.  Subsequently a white paper was proposed to introduce the secured requirements needed to support this electronic currency - what we know as Blockchain.  While we can thank Bitcoin for the emergence of Blockchain the two are mutually exclusive.

Blockchain is a database unlike anything we have seen.  Traditional databases today rely on a central authority.  This architecture is well known as client server architecture and although it has had many successful years of prosperity it has two potential flaws:

1. Single point of failure
2. All power controlled by the central authority

Unlike the traditional database Blockchain has no central authority.  Every acting member within the Blockchain has the identical instance of the database installed.  The only way for a transaction to become valid is if all active participating parties agree that it is legitimate.  We call this consensus in the Blockchain world.

Furthermore, the Blockchain database is immutable, meaning that no entry in the database can be deleted or modified ensuring full audit trail and enhanced security as algorithmically each entry is examined during the consensus phase for legitimacy.

Traditional databases have continued and still continue today to enhance security.  User name and password criteria have become more complex.  CAPTCHAs, biometrics and text codes have become commonplace.  These additional measures only exist because prior security measures get breached.

We, at KYNITE, are enthusiastic supporters of Blockchain Technology and the security that it provides.   We have been heavily involved in its growth and believe that it will become the standard for security and proficiency in operation.
