Abstract:
As consumers and financial institutions increasingly rely on digital payment systems, fraud has become a critical issue. Established fraud prevention practices sometimes fail to follow the rapid evolution of fraudulent practices. The information is derived from the research paper entitled: Fourth Industrial Revolution and its Relationship with Blockchain: A Systematic Review. Blockchain technology is a decentralized, transparent, and immutable system that can appropriately perform fraud detection and prevention by taking advantage of its properties, thus solving the issues of fraud detection and prevention in transactions. Therefore, mapping the existing payment infrastructures and pinpointing critical weak spots, this paper introduces a blueprint for blockchain's distributed ledger and its synergy, supplying contemporaneous transaction validation with a certainty of reduced fraudulent practices while maintaining a higher account of safety and accountability. It inspects the technical and operational hurdles in interfacing blockchain with current payment infrastructures and assesses transaction velocity, expense, and scalability implications. According to their findings, blockchain enhances the integrity of payment systems immensely, presenting a strong shield against fraud while retaining efficiency.
