Abstract

With globalization, educational entities have the challenge of issuing secure certificates that guarantee their authenticity and prevent falsification. The objective of this study is to model a Blockchain system capable of implementing the student certificate authentication service for different educational entities in the nation. The factors that were taken into account for the development of the model were the theory of how Blockchain technology works, the most robust automatic authentication tool today, and the adaptation of the authentication model in certificates as a service. With this design, the use of Blockchain as an authentication service is encouraged and its application is shown so that in the future the model can be implemented in all educational entities that safely generate their diplomas and/or certificates.
