What is the benefit of an organisation using blockchain in data management?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Blockchain ensures data integrity by preventing modifications. If changes are needed, new blocks are added instead of altering existing ones. This enhances transparency and security, as blockchain is decentralized and not vulnerable to a single point of failure. (P.189)

I thought blockchain was more about transparency and security rather than being organization-specific, so I'm leaning towards option D.

I feel like option D makes sense because blockchain is supposed to be immutable, but I wonder if there are exceptions.

I think I practiced a question about blockchain benefits, and it mentioned decentralization, which might relate to why data isn't easily changed.

I remember reading that blockchain is great for data integrity, but I'm not sure if that means data can't be modified at all.

I've got this! The benefit of using blockchain for data management is that the data cannot be modified. That's the whole point of the distributed ledger technology, right? I'm confident that's the right answer.

Okay, let's see. I know blockchain is supposed to make data more secure and tamper-proof. So I'm guessing the right answer has to do with the inability to modify data once it's recorded on the blockchain.
