Blockchain Based Employee Credential Verification System

Blockchain was invented by Satoshi Nakamoto back in 2008 to facilitate Cryptocurrency, which is a backbone of Cryptocurrency. It provides important features like decentralised in nature, transparency and immutability of data. Due to all this characteristic, it encourage us to implement this mechanism to solve real life problem where security, verification & trustworthy environment is necessary and plays very crucial role. One of the key area where we can implement this technique, is education sector where thousands of students get graduated each year and currently there is no any anti-forged mechanism. While hiring new candidates companies have to manually verify their credentials by contacting issuing authority. There are number of cases where students may produce fake degrees. Because it is possible for the candidates to make fake certificates at low cost and process to verify its authenticity is costly as well as very complex, as it need to be manually verified. This problem can be solved by providing digital certificates and storing them on the blockchain where data cannot be forged and verification process is easy.
