How does ProvenDocs work?

Information stored on the public Blockchain is immutable - it cannot be changed or deleted. By storing cryptographic signatures of the contents of your document on the Blockchain, we can prove that the document existed at a specific time and that you uploaded it. This proof is mathematically indisputable and is increasingly recognized in legislation, making it a powerful asset in court. We will provide you with all the information (simplified in clear language) and steps required to prove your document with or without ProvenDocs. Only the cryptographic signature (hash) is stored on the public Blockchain and cannot be used to view your document contents. Your document is stored securely in the ProvenDocs database and cannot be viewed by anyone without your permission.
ANSWERED

What is a hash?

A hash is a mathematical "signature" of a document - a digital finger print. The chances of two documents having the same hash are infinitesimally small, even if every computer in the world today generated hashes as fast as it could, it would still take many time longer than the lifetime of a universe to find a duplicate. In practice, hashes are far more precise proofs of identity than DNA or fingerprints.
ANSWERED

What is Blockchain?

Blockchain is a growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. By design, a blockchain is resistant to modification of the data.
