WHAT IS BLOCKCHAIN
DATA?
Blockchain in simple terms is a system
of recording information in a way that
makes it
difficult or impossible to change, hack,
or cheat the system. A blockchain is
essentially
a digital ledger of transactions that is
duplicated and distributed across the
entire
network of computer systems on the
blockchain.
Blockchain
Data
KEY
FEATURES:
• Decentralized: Blockchain data is
not stored in a single location but is
distributed across multiple
computers on the network. This
eliminates the risk of a single point
of failure and makes it highly
resistant to tampering.
Blockchain
Data
• Immutable: Once a block is added
to the blockchain, it cannot be
altered or deleted. Any attempt to
modify the data would require
changing all subsequent blocks,
making it computationally infeasible
and practically impossible. This
immutability ensures the integrity
and authenticity of the recorded
information.
Blockchain
• Secure: Blockchain data is secured
Data
by cryptography, making it highly
resistant to hacking and fraud. The
cryptographic hash functions used to
link blocks together ensure that any
alteration to a block would be
immediately detected by the
network.

WHAT IS IoT
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of
physical devices, vehicles, home appliances,
and other items embedded with electronics,
software, sensors, actuators, and network
connectivity that enable these objects to
collect and exchange data.
