Abstract

The developments of computer science in recent decades have made possible the massive sharing of data between devices and people. This transformation has undeniably led to several advantages, such as easier accessibility or availability of information. As a result, the increasing interconnection and availability of data has necessitated data protection through rigorous security practices. This article will explore the importance of using Blockchain technologies that, through a decentralized structure and advanced encryption methods, offer an opportunity to ensure security, transparency and data correctness. Sensitive information, for importance and confidentiality, can be collected and used with the use of Blockchain technology, which represents an effective approach to the protection of the privacy of the same. To ensure the security and anonymization of their personal data, ensured by this technology, there is a greater propensity to share and release data by the population. This increases the contribution to the use of sensitive data for the progress of scientific research and the well-being of the community. The research specifically aims to demonstrate the usefulness of using Blockchain technology for health data processing.
