Cryptographic Enforcement

Definition

Cryptographic enforcement uses mathematical codes to make sure rules are followed automatically in digital systems. This principle applies cryptographic primitives, such as digital signatures, hash functions, and zero-knowledge proofs, to ensure adherence to predefined rules and policies within a digital environment. It creates trustless systems where the integrity and authenticity of data or transactions are mathematically guaranteed. This method removes the need for intermediaries to oversee compliance, as the system itself prevents unauthorized actions.
