Blockchain Architecture for Auditing Automation and Trust Building in Public Markets

Published: 01 July 2020 Publication History

Abstract

Business transactions by public firms must be reported, verified, and audited periodically, which is labor intensive and time consuming. To streamline this procedure, we have designed Future Auditing Blockchain to automate the reporting and auditing process, allowing auditors to focus on discretionary accounts to better detect and prevent fraud.
