Certified Blockchain Professional
About the Certification
Blockchain is all about secure data exchange. Currently the major uses have been related to crypto-currencies and supply chain management: contracts management and automatic fulfillment. The future of data transfer in the most secure manner between and within organizations is where Blockchain will flourish for every company.
A blockchain is a database that is shared across a network of computers. Once a record has been added to the chain it is impossible to change it and so it is secure against fraud/theft. To ensure all the copies of the database are the same, the network makes constant checks. Blockchains have been used to underpin cyber-currencies like bitcoin but secure data exchange is how businesses are using it. It is an essential part of ICCP's new standards for Generally Accepted Data Management Principles (GADMP).
