A tamper-evident audit refers to a review process designed to detect any unauthorized alterations or manipulations of data or records. This type of audit relies on mechanisms that make any attempt to change information immediately discernible. Blockchain technology inherently supports tamper-evident record-keeping through cryptographic linking of blocks. This property ensures the integrity of recorded information.
Context
News often discusses tamper-evident audits in relation to blockchain security, supply chain verification, and digital asset custody. The immutability of blockchain ledgers provides a robust foundation for such audits, enhancing trust and transparency. This capability is frequently cited as a key advantage of decentralized record systems over traditional methods. Regulators often consider this feature when evaluating blockchain applications.
