Blockchain technology, initially conceptualized for cryptocurrency transactions, has evolved into a versatile solution for enhancing network security. Its decentralized, immutable, and transparent nature addresses various security challenges, including data integrity, authentication, and secure transactions. This paper explores the application of blockchain technology in network security, examining its effectiveness, implementation challenges, and potential benefits. Specifically, we delve into how blockchain's consensus mechanisms, cryptographic hashes, and decentralized nature can be leveraged to create robust security protocols. Through comprehensive analysis and case studies, we demonstrate how blockchain can transform traditional security frameworks, offering robust solutions for modern cyber threats.
