Description

The integration of blockchain technology into organizational IT infrastructure offers a transformative opportunity to enhance cybersecurity and optimize operational processes. This paper examines the key challenges, critical factors, and barriers influencing blockchain adoption and proposes a layered IT infrastructure model to address these issues. The model illustrates where and how blockchain can be integrated within each layer of the infrastructure and the potential impact on operational optimization at each stage. By offering a structured approach, this framework provides organizations with a practical roadmap for effectively leveraging blockchain technology to address scalability, interoperability, regulatory compliance, and other critical concerns. The proposed model ensures tailored implementations that enhance security and operational efficiency within IT infrastructures.
