Summary:
Secure and Resistant Blockchain for Financial and Business Applications. The aim of this project is to develop a practical secure blockchain technology for the booming applications in finance and business. This project expects to address the leading security threats to the current blockchain applications. The expected outcome is an executable secure and resistant blockchain prototype through the integration of the latest developed and customized techniques. The success of the project will dramatically benefit Australian people and government, especially for the Australian ICT industry for commercializing the research outputs.
National Interest Test Statement:
Decentralised records of transactions, also known as blockchain technology, are cheap and fairly secure. It is very popular in trading digital currency (e.g. Bitcoin) and is used in financial and business applications. However, this technology is facing new cyber security threats such as token stealing and system failure attacks. This project aims to tackle these two leading security vulnerabilities and establishes the foundation of future commercially available security software packages that data scientists, software developers and software / Cyber security professionals can use. By increasing Australian cybersecurity capabilities in blockchain technology, this project will increase cyber resilience benefiting Australia’s ICT industry directly and industries that rely on secure data exchange indirectly. Through collaboration with our linkage partner and their industry networks, the outputs and outcomes of this linkage project will become widely available and benefit the Australian economy and society by keeping financial transactions and personal data safe.
