Abstract
One example method includes creating a backup of data, creating metadata associated with the backup, hashing the backup to create a backup hash, obtaining a key from a blockchain, generating an aggregate hash of a combination that includes the key and the backup hash, and transmitting the aggregate hash to a blockchain network. Because the aggregate hash is not modifiable when stored in a blockchain, an immutable record exists that establishes when a particular backup was created.
