Abstract

With the exponentially increasing number of AI (Artificial intelligence) applications on Big Data being developed, AI cyber security defense becomes ever required. Blockchain technology invented in 2008 with BitCoin could be benefited alongside the customer of Big Data and so on. Following a rapid progress in its advance, this subject has recently become a hot discussion topic in the ICT (Information and communications technology) world. In this chapter, Big Data security is discussed from the beginning to the impact which could benefit IT engineers, ICT students and CS academic researchers. As a case study, because medical record is personally identifiable privacy information, it needs strictly access control security. Blockchain technology has the features of trustworthy cyber security, anti-fake, anti-alteration, integrity, immutability and transaction accounting transparency reputation, these made it a good candidate for being applied to NHS medical records. Currently Blockchain technology, as one of the most important smart technologies, had been very widely used in smart applications that could influence the world. An analysis on such topic is provided in this chapter.
