in Conjunction with
*KUWAIT BLOCKCHAIN SUMMIT 2023*
24–26 October, 2023 – Kuwait City, Kuwait
https://intelligenttech.org/BCCA2023/call.php
Blockchain is a revolutionary technology in decentralized systems that
enables secure decentralized transaction processing while ensuring data
privacy and authenticity. It is now playing a significant role in several
areas such the Internet of Things, supply-chain management, manufacturing,
cyber-physical systems, healthcare systems, and much more. Unlike
centralized transaction processing solutions, blockchain uses a distributed
ledger mechanism to record data transactions on multiple devices, this will
prevent data breach, identity theft, and a plethora of cyber-related
attacks, in essence, leading to a sustainability in data privacy and
security. This conference aims at to attract work of both researchers and
practitioners in the area of cyber-security to share and exchange their
experiences and research studies in both academia and industry in the field
of blockchain.
