Abstract

This paper explores the intersection of network security and blockchain technology in the context of today's digital era. It begins by acknowledging the vulnerabilities and threats contemporary networks face, including data breaches and denial-of-service attacks. The paper then delves into the foundational principles of blockchain, highlighting its decentralization, consensus mechanisms, cryptographic encryption, and immutability as key attributes that can enhance network security The central idea presented is the potential of blockchain to revolutionize network security. It discusses how blockchain can be integrated into network architecture to achieve secure and transparent identity management, combat identity fraud, automate network processes through smart contracts, and enhance real-time threat detection and response. However, the paper also recognizes challenges such as scalability, interoperability, and energy efficiency when implementing blockchain in secure networks and suggests ongoing research efforts and potential solutions to make this integration more practical.
