Abstract

Most experts predict that more than 10 % of global GDP will be stored in blockchains. This technology is usually associated only with the world of cryptocurrency, but it has deeper roots and appears in the areas of health care, the production of goods and services, and also stores various secret data and information. After all, when in the information society, the main resource is information, influence and money, the security of data and their confidentiality should come first. All of these ensures leadership and dominant position. And many people think that it is precisely for the blockchain that we are waiting for the “stone wall” from our problems. But very few people think about how safe it really is. This study focuses on the management and the use of blockchain technology, types of threats to the system and its consequences on our world for achieving a leading position. In the process of studying the problem of using the blockchain technology and determining security threats, we employed the methods of logical, deductive, interrogative and statistical analysis. Our results show that the use of blockchain technology can significantly ease the life of the government, companies and people. The use of smart contracts can significantly change the usual understanding of secure transactions, however, with the growth of this technology, hacking techniques are also being improved, as well as old ones that adapt to modern security protocols. This technology has not yet penetrated the masses, so it is necessary to highlight the main methods of preventing privacy and security for users and new companies in the market. Therefore, the main results of this work were focused both on the general structure of understanding of this technology, and on the general prevention of threats from intruders.
