Starting point is 00:00:00 This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. Can blockchain improve evidence integrity? Constellation Network thinks it can, by Aishan Pandey. Can blockchain technology improve transparency in compliance and evidence management? Constellation Network, a distributed infrastructure company validated by the US Department of Defense, DoD, has launched Digital Evidence, a tamper-proof compliance product designed for law enforcement and emergency services. A new approach to compliance and evidence security The need for secure and immutable data storage has grown, particularly in industries where compliance and legal integrity are crucial.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Constellation Network's digital evidence leverages blockchain technology to ensure complete trust in data collection, storage, and reporting. After six years of contracting with the DoD and developing the Iron Spitter project, an initiative focused on securing critical mission communications, Constellation is now extending its blockchain infrastructure to commercial applications. Digital evidence offers a solution for organizations seeking more efficient, automated, and secure evidentiary reporting. The cost of compliance and the need for IN Novation IN the public sector alone, over $3.6 billion is spent annually defending compliance cases. Traditional methods of gathering and verifying evidence for legal,

Digital evidence addresses these challenges by creating immutable, easily accessible records that streamline compliance efforts. Organizations can integrate digital evidence into their workflows to ensure that critical data remains verifiable and intact. This system has the potential to reduce administrative burdens and legal risks associated with evidence handling. Integrating blockchain with law enforcement and emergency services digital evidence seamlessly collects and secures data from police vehicles, fire trucks, M-systems, and other onboard technologies. The data is stored on a blockchain, ensuring that it remains tamper-proof and court-admissible.
Starting point is 00:02:03 This eliminates concerns over data manipulation and strengthens the reliability of evidence in legal proceedings. Through a partnership with Panasonic, Constellation is working to deploy digital evidence on Panasonic's Toughbook devices, which are widely used by law enforcement and emergency responders. By leveraging existing hardware, the integration of digital evidence can be accelerated without requiring significant infrastructure changes. Expanding use cases for blockchain-based evidence beyond law enforcement and emergency services, digital evidence is being piloted in various sectors. It has applications in AI datasets, retail analytics through door technologies, and intellectual property protection.

By integrating blockchain-based verification into operational workflows, industries can enhance data security and transparency. Ben Jorgensen, CEO of Constellations said, greater than there is a massive sense of urgency from both the private and public sector to greater than have more transparency across technologies, organizations, and agencies. Addressing transparency in public and private sectors there is growing urgency across industries to improve transparency in technology, business operations, and government agencies. Digital evidence is positioned as a solution that enhances accountability and accuracy while reducing compliance burdens. Ben Jorgensen, CEO of Constellation, highlighted the broader implications of this technology,
Starting point is 00:03:26 stating that blockchain can be integrated seamlessly for the public good. Digital evidence represents the first of many products designed to address compliance challenges and improve data integrity. The future of blockchain in compliance and certification organizations that adopt digital evidence will receive a, smart checkmark, certification, verifying their adherence to transparent and secure data collection practices. This certification could instill greater confidence among consumers and regulatory bodies.
