Blockchain para asegurar la integridad y trazabilidad en la cadena de custodia de evidencia digital en informática forense: un estudio de mapeo sistemático
Resumen
La incorporación de blockchain como estrategia para mejorar la seguridad de la información en diversos sectores de la sociedad se ha identificado como una potencial solución para reducir los riesgos asociados con el tratamiento de datos en Internet. Garantizar la cadena de custodia en investigaciones forenses es esencial para preservar el registro y procedencia de la evidencia digital. No obstante, la falta de investigación en el desarrollo e implementación de soluciones que integren blockchain para la cadena de custodia dificulta su aplicación y adopción. Por ello, esta investigación tuvo como objetivo clasificar las características de blockchain que permiten garantizar la integridad y trazabilidad de la evidencia digital en el proceso de cadena de custodia, mediante una revisión de literatura basada en un Estudio de Mapeo Sistemático. El estudio describió los conceptos y estado actual de blockchain en relación con la cadena de custodia. Los hallazgos revelaron diversos marcos, pruebas de concepto, prototipos y protocolos que propusieron aplicaciones de blockchain en el registro, intercambio y trazabilidad de evidencia digital en diferentes contextos, así como los beneficios, limitaciones y desafíos asociados con su implementación. Como conclusión final, se destaca la estrecha relación entre integridad y trazabilidad como propiedades fundamentales para la construcción de aplicaciones blockchain, además de proporcionar una base sólida de información que pueda servir de referencia para futuras investigaciones.
