excerpt:
"Transaction verification
Verification and authentication technologies have long existed that can mitigate the risk of unauthorised access to enterprise blockchains. Out-of-Band Transaction Verification is a time-tested, reliable option for verifying transactions before allowing them to be added permanently to a corporate blockchain.
Content scanning
Blockchains are secure, but their access points are not. It’s not enough to keep thieves from drilling in through the side of the vault, we’ve got to keep them from sneaking in through the front too. Access controls can ensure that information entered on to a corporate blockchain was made by an authorised user, but it can’t prevent that user from unwittingly exposing the blockchain to malware designed to hide in plain sight.
A blockchain content agent can prevent malware from attaching itself to legitimate data entered by an authorised user. We can secure corporate blockchains by making sure that every transaction is analysed, then sanitised if needed, to prevent malware from staking a permanent residence on that blockchain. "
