Abstract
Blockchain-enabled digital twins for industrial automation systems (e.g., using a computerized tool) are enabled. For example, a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, in response to execution, cause an industrial device comprising a processor to perform operations, the operations comprising: determining an equivalency of the configuration of the industrial automation component based on a comparison of the first configuration fingerprint with a second configuration fingerprint of the configuration of the industrial automation component generated at a second time, subsequent to the first time, determining an equivalency of the configuration of the industrial automation component based on a comparison of the first configuration fingerprint with a second configuration fingerprint of the configuration of the industrial automation component generated at the second time, and generating an output indicative of the equivalency of the digital twin and the equivalency of the configuration.
