Abstract
Embodiments are directed to the protection and verification of documents. In some embodiments, this is achieved by generating checksum data describing a document and storing that and a time stamp on a publicly available blockchain. By recording a checksum of a document on a blockchain, the disclosed systems and methods may be used later to validate the integrity of the document. In one embodiment, this validation is performed by comparing the recorded checksum from a previous time when the document or files were stored to a recalculated checksum generated at the present time. If the checksums match, then it is assumed that the document has not been altered since the checksum data was first calculated.
