Abstract: A system and method is provided for storing data and ensuring integrity and reliability of the data using blockchain technology. An exemplary method is provided for time-stamping a file to be added to a blockchain network. The method includes generating a data file; identifying a hash value from a first block previously recorded in the blockchain network; embedding a beacon relating to the hash value in the data file; and recording the data file with the embedded beacon as a transaction in a second block in the blockchain network.

Abstract: A floating element system and methods for dynamically adding features to an application without changing the design and layout of a GUI of the application are disclosed. At least one method is implemented as a visual software development tool of a software program. In some embodiments, the method adds a floating element to the GUI of the application.

Abstract: A system and method for authenticating data files using a block chain network. An exemplary method includes identifying data files in electronic data storage, computing hash values for files, adding pairs of the hash values and computing hash values for each resulting pair, continuing this process to a root level of a hash tree, and sending the root hash to a blockchain network in which one or more nodes in the blockchain network adds the hash value as one or more blocks in a blockchain.

Abstract: A system and method provided for verifying data integrity for large volumes of critical data using blockchain technology. An exemplary method includes storing data files in electronic storage; creating a hash values for of each of the files; and transmitting the hash values to a blockchain network in which one or more nodes in the blockchain network adds the first hash values as blocks to the blockchain. Moreover, an API is provided to monitor data operations performed on the data files and transmit metadata of any operations performed to a transaction log. In turn, hash values relating to the data operations are also created and transmitted to the blockchain network to be added as additional blocks in the blockchain, such that the blockchain can be used to verify the accuracy of the data files stored on the electronic storage.
