Specifics of blockchain use in the Russian financial sector within the context of cybersecurity and cyber immunity

Abstract

Blockchain in Russia is the key end-to-end digital technology, based on which the digital ruble is launched as fiduciary digital national money. Purpose: to explore the role of blockchain, quantum technologies and computers in building up cyber immunity in Russia. Results: the peculiarity of using blockchain in Russian financial sector is the creation of the fiat digital ruble, rather than cryptocurrencies. Conclusions: the original hypothesis of ensuring blockchain ecosystems and platforms cybersecurity, in response to increasing cybercrime, in view of Russian financial sector cyber immunity development, is proposed; Russia, like other countries, hasn’t developed cyber immunity – “Quantum inoculation” is required.
