HRM Smart Contracts on the Blockchain Transparency is a problem in the hiring process of many institutions. For applicants, this process is often difficult to follow since applicants never know the state of their application and canu0027t be sure that they are being evaluated in a fair manner. This is especially important in the public sector. Based on these premises, we propose a transparent and decentral model for the application processes by using Blockchain and smart contracts. In this system, vacancies are published to the blockchain as smart contracts, and candidates, as well as application reviewers and institutions, are rewarded for their honest participation in the process. This paper evaluates the proposed system and offers an example application to prove the viability of the model.

Using the security triad to assess blockchain technology in public sector applications Abstract   This conceptual paper explores the impact of blockchain technology on public sector processes through the lens of information security. It includes an overview of the evolution of egovernment, a synopsis of existing applications of blockchain technology, and innovative blockchain developments. We utilize the ConfidentialityIntegrityAccessibility (CIA) triad to guide our discussion of the security, governance, and regulatory implications of this technology. Leveraging the CIA triad model, we provide context for public managers who may consider blockchain technologies, and we highlight certain advantages arising from the xe2x80x9cnonreputabilityxe2x80x9d of distributed ledgers.  In particular, we highlight the advantages of blockchain technologies with regards to nonreputability to help public managers understand how to best leverage blockchain technology to transform operations.
