Investigating the use of blockchain to authenticate data from the Statistics Canada website / by Kathryn Fedchun, Lillian Klein, and Didem Demirag.: CS11-633/2022-44E-PDF

"The main focus of this project is to understand more about blockchain and see whether, as StatCan expands its website, it could use blockchain technology to enable users to authenticate the data downloaded from the website. With an increased understanding of these emerging technologies, the aim of this project is to develop a process of authentication that would allow users to verify that the material downloaded from the StatCan website has not been tampered with and was produced by StatCan"--Executive summary, page 3.
