The features of blockchain are immutabil-ity, trackability, trustworthiness and decentralisation. This paper explores the concept, characteristics, and the need for blockchain in cybersecurity management. Blockchain is based on cryptography to ensure trust in transactions. Blockchain technologies made a remarkable contribution in Cybersecurity.
