Leveraging Blockchain Technology

The Information Systems Security and Assurance Management department (ISSM) at Concordia University of Edmonton (CUE) proudly announces the official publication of Leveraging Blockchain Technology: Governance, Risk, Compliance, Security, and Benevolent Use Cases!

This book builds on the foundational insights shared in The Auditor's Guide to Blockchain Technology: Architecture, Use Cases, Security, and Assurance (2022). However, it stands alone as an invaluable resource for non-profit business leaders, managers, and internal or external auditors who wish to better understand the full potential of blockchain technology.

Inside, you'll find a comprehensive yet accessible discussion on blockchain technology Governance, Risk, Compliance (GRC) along with some thought-provoking benevolent use cases. This guide will help further leverage blockchain for impactful solutions like telemedicine access, identity management, banking services, and Islamic finance in global underserved communities.

A heartfelt thank you to our 2020-2021 and 2022-2023 ISSM research cohorts at CUE. Your dedication was pivotal in making both blockchain titles a reality!
