Abstract - Education is essential for everyone, and throughout their academic journey, students earn various certificates. These certificates are crucial when applying for jobs in both public and private sectors, where they must be manually verified. Unfortunately, some students may present fake certificates, making it difficult to detect fraudulent documents. This issue of counterfeit academic certificates has plagued the academic community for years. To enhance the security and integrity of this data, digitization is necessary, adhering to the principles of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. Blockchain technology can provide a solution.

Blockchain technology offers inherent security features that make it ideal for generating digital certificates that are tamper-proof and easy to verify. Each certificate would be associated with a unique hash key (QR code), allowing any organization to authenticate the certificate's legitimacy through a dedicated portal. This system not only reduces the risk of students losing or damaging their certificates but also simplifies the validation process. By leveraging blockchain, we can create a more secure, reliable, and accessible method for managing academic credentials.
