4HDR 2020, Nr. 1, 4–14.Viktor HuszárAPPLICATION POSSIBILITIES OFDECENTRALIZATION AND BLOCKCHAINTECHNOLOGY USING COMPUTER VISIONAND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN DEFENSEMANAGEMENT, MILITARY AND POLICEORGANIZATIONSDOI: 10.35926/HDR.2020.1.1ABSTRACT: Military science has faced new challenges at the end of the 20 th century withthe emergence of the Internet. Challenges and threats to traditional security got anew in-terpretation with a new concept of cybersecurity, which led to an organictransforma-tion of military engineering and IT. As the Internet has fundamentallychanged the way the world works, new technologies have emerged on the networkthat can revolutionize the multitude of industries. Such innovation is DistributedLedger Technology (DLT) and Blockchain Technology supplemented with ArtificialIntelligence and machine vision. The potential uses of the block chain represent amultitude of military technical scientific challenges. The technology makes it possible toco-operate freely with cryptographic pro-cedures on distributed networks without statecontrol, but it can also serve military and defense management purposes.KEYWORDS: decentralization, blockchain technology, machine learning, Artificial IntelligenceINTRODUCTIONInformation technology is constantly evolving and transforming. Early scientific pioneers,like Christensen highlighted the importance of “disruptive” innovations that can affect theoverall operation of companies, governments. 1 The turbulent and dynamic computer scienceindustry has witnessed the birth of the floppy disk, then the transition to CD, DVD and Blueraydiscs, but most remarkably, the evolution of the internet can be classified as a disruptiveinnovation. The most recent organic defragmentation of the ubiquitous information networkis a revolutionary innovation based on the blockchain technology. 2 Most people identify thistechnology with bitcoin 3 , but it is much more than the evolution of a new digital currency.1 Bower, L. and Christensen, M. “Disruptive Technologies. Catching the Wave”. Harvard Business Review 74/1.1995. 43-53. https://hbr.org/1995/01/disruptive-technologies-catching-the-wave, Accessed on 20 April 2020.2 Haber, S. and Stornetta, W. S. “How to time-stamp a digital document”. Journal of Cryptology 3/2. 1991.99–111.

Focus5Blockchain is clearly a disruptive technology that changes the way the world works in economic,legal and information security terms. 4 It will have a significant impact on IT systems,but less attention has been paid to the opportunities and threats of the blockchain networksin military administration.Defense areas for blockchain-based applications and solutions raise a wide range ofscientific questions. In terms of military use, governmental development puts emphasis onhybrid warfare and globally substantially more funding is available for research and developmentof the field. Blockchain technology allows voluntary, distributed networks createdfor military purposes to co-operate through a cryptographic process without centraland state control. Blockchain technology consequently results in a digital paradigm shift,characterized by decentralization, blockchain technology, machine learning, and ArtificialIntelligence.CHALLENGING MILITARY APPLICABILITYThe potential applications of the blockchain raise numerous military technical challenges.Blockchain is a computer-scientific term for a distributed data storage technology, a distributedledger database that stores a list of entries in ever-increasing blocks. Each block alsocontains a link to the preceding block on each node that stores a structured chain. 5 An essentialfeature of systems using blockchain is the storage of blockchain nodes in all structuredentries using a consensus algorithm. Despite the fact that bitcoin was an early adapter ofthe technology, today there are numerous systems under development that follow the sameprinciple but differ fundamentally from bitcoin in their purposes and key technicalelements. These systems together are often referred to as blockchain technology, not tooprecisely. The technology allows voluntary, distributed networks to be cryptographicallydeployed in a robust manner, without governmental and central state control. In addition tobanking systems, virtual money and the development of Smart Contract, 6 real estate sales,exchange of assets and movable property are also emerging. However, military applicationsare even more interesting, as data security must be a priority in defense administration andin the daily communication of authorities.For blockchain-based military use, there are several scientific challenges depending onthe protocol in use. The need for a centralized data storage and uncontrolled security managementsystem should be explored for the efficient use of resources. The problem extendsto the artificial isolation of such a system and the military risks of “awaking” machine-learningor programmed Artificial Intelligence. Science should investigate how data security,data integration, isolation of the Artificial Intelligence decision-making environment, andthe framework for authorization levels can be achieved in such an automated, distributednetwork-based military environment.4 “Blockchains: The great chain of being sure about things”.
