This book intersects the distributed ledger technology (DLT) community with the international security community. Given the increasing application of blockchain technology in the fields of business and international development, there is a growing body of study on other use cases. For instance, can blockchain have a significant role in preserving and improving international security?

Emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and blockchain technologies can enhance the integrity of data while bridging secure rooms with secure networks while advances in robotics and the Internet of Things (IoT) can help to maintain a continuity of knowledge over unattended systems. Blockchain technology, a subset of distributed ledger technology (DLT), is the focus of this book as it has been increasingly adopted by industries to create greater efficiencies and security across business operations, particularly for supply chains. Data on a DLT platform is extremely difficult to manipulate, allowing stakeholders the ability to share information in a trusted environment. This is in turn has led to an increase in research studying the potential for DLT to track nuclear, biological, and chemical materials in line with national and international reporting obligations. The authors in this book provide an overview of the research done to date on DLT and international security and identify ways in which research can be carried forward to further develop and test the potential for DLT to strengthen international security.

This book explores this question in the context of preventing the proliferation of some of the most dangerous materials in the world—items that if not secured can lend to the development of weapons of mass destruction. It considers how blockchain can increase efficiencies in the global trade of nuclear and chemical materials and technology, thereby increasing assurances related to compliance with international nonproliferation and disarmament treaties.
