Abstract
A machine data validation system can track and validate the integrity of machine data generated by machines. The system can generate hashes for the items and batch hashes that can be validated using an immutable data store, such as a blockchain. The system can implement a tiered blockchain structure to efficiently store and reference the hashes to validate the machine data at different times or upon request from an end-user.
