The U.S. DoD Has To Elevate To The Blockchain Era Before It’s Too Late
So, my question in 2020 would be: Blockchain technology is mostly used by the banking and financial sector, but what’s militech’s approach on the matter? A joint white paper proposed by IBM, Accenture, AWS, and Deloitte among others explained to the U.S. Departnment of Defense the reasons why it can’t afford to stay behind the ongoing global military blockchain race, currently led by Russia and China.
The document, which was almost instantly deleted from Scribd, bears the title “Potential Use-Cases Of Blockchain Technology in DoD” and it was supposed to lay down analytically how and why the U.S. DoD should not only pay attention to the DLT industry, but consider to become a key player in the field. Some interesting use-cases mentioned in the document suggest that blockchain technology could be used in enhancing cybersecurity protocols, identification processes, and enable multi-sig authentication for dangerous weapons that cannot be forged or be stolen.
