1. Introduction -- 2. Blockchain Applications for Nuclear Safeguards -- 3. Nuclear Security and Blockchain -- 4. Blockchain for Global Trade in Dual-Use Chemicals -- 5. Blockchain for export control compliance and global supply chain integrity -- 6. Deployment Perspectives and Challenges.
This book intersects the distributed ledger technology (DLT) community with the international security community. Given the increasing application of blockchain technology in the fields of business and international development, there is a growing body of study on other use cases. For instance, can blockchain have a significant role in preserving and improving international security? This book explores this question in the context of preventing the proliferation of some of the most dangerous materials in the world—items that if not secured can lend to the development of weapons of mass destruction. It considers how blockchain can increase efficiencies in the global trade of nuclear and chemical materials and technology, thereby increasing assurances related to compliance with international nonproliferation and disarmament treaties.
