3. Executive Summary
A blockchain is shared, and distributed ledger
replicated to each node across a network. All parties in
the network can have access to the data in the
distributed ledger. Every update made to each entry is
recorded as an additional “block” and creates a chain
of records providing a complete, verifiable history.
Blockchains leverage strong encryption and are secure.

4. Why Blockchain: “From – To”
From To
There are too many security concerns that make it
difficult to share data
Each record is encrypted ensuring privacy
We do not always have a complete inventory of all the
changes for a record
A complete history of a record lives on a shared,
distributed ledger
Our Partners and Customers do not trust our
information
Trust is a byproduct due to the immutable nature of
entries in Blockchain
Details for records with partners is inconsistent All records are shared across a network using readily
available technologies

5. Blockchain Use Cases: The Problems
Banking: Lack of consumer trust
Supply Chain: There is a lack of visibility and accountability with the companies in the
supply chain
Health Care: Lack of information shared from provider to provider for personal
healthcare
Identity: Identity theft is rife

6. Blockchain Use Cases : How you can use
Blockchain
Banking: trust is a by product
Supply Chain: Validate the production and movement of products
Health Care: Tracking health, medication and personal care
Identity: Proving identity

detailing Turing Complete / World
Computer concept of improving
Smart Contracts
2015
Ethereum Released and developers
can now create Distributed Apps

8. Why Blockchain: What is Blockchain?
•Blockchain represents a foundation for the next significant stage of Internet Technologies
Web 3.0
•A Distributed, shared ledger (similar to a shared Excel Spreadsheet)
•Data changes are peer approved using ConsensusTransparent
•Smart Contracts
•Distributed Apps (Dapps)
•Supplement Blockchain with existing technologies (API, ML/AI and IoT)
Extendable
•Hash encryption
Secure
•A complete history of an asset is kept in the Blockchain
Self-Auditing

10. Blockchain Mechanics: Smart
Contracts
• A Smart Contract receives and distributes
assets from seller to buyer. The Blockchain
records the transaction as a new entry. The
process can be automated, and ownership
is undisputed.
• Smart Contract completes a trusted, secure
and verifiable transaction almost instantly
without the need of 3rd party involvement
• Smart Contracts run business logic such as
automatic transactions
• The most popular language to write a
Smart Contract is Solidity
• The Blockchain records each transactions

11. Tools: IoT
• IoT Sensors to collect data
• Blockchain is designed as Edge Computing
• Enhance Smart Contracts with Machine Learning

15. Tools: Frameworks
• Open Source is your friend (GitHub and GitLab)
• Azure Blockchain Workbench
• Linux Foundation Hyperledger Projects
• Notable: AWS has only recently started to fully
support Blockchain and Google Cloud is notably
absent

16. IOT &
Blockchain
Examples
Hyundai is backing IoT
blockchain startup HDAC
(Hyundai Digital Asset
Currency), which is building its
own private blockchain
designed specifically for IoT.
Filament’s Blocklet chip is to
let [IoT] sensor data be
coded directly into the
blockchain. Again, the goal is
to “provide a secure
foundation for decentralized
interaction and exchange.”

17. So what?
Build Trust
• Trust between parties
and devices
• Reduce risk of collusion
and tampering
1
Reduce Costs
• Eliminate
middlemen/auditors
2
Accelerate
Transactions
• Reduce Settlements
from days to near
instantaneous
3

18. Summary & Next Steps
• Blockchain & IOT sitting in a
tree…
• Speed of Innovation
• It is 1993
