• TITLE: The Hazards of Misusing the Smart Contract: An AHP Approach to Its Risk

  AUTHORS: Romulo Luciano

  KEYWORDS: AHP, Blockchain, Smart Contract, Software Project Management

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Information Security, Vol.10 No.1, January 23, 2019

  ABSTRACT: This article explores four critical groups of systematic risk embedded in smart contract employment using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The four principal risk analysis groups include: 1) transparency in the light of corporate governance 2) IT security 3) contract management automation and 4) legality. The AHP assists both decision-makers and stakeholders alike in the evaluation process essential for identifying potential technological constraints posed within a permissioned blockchain environment using peer-to-peer format in the absence of digital currency. Based upon critical assessment, the AHP methodology enables pairwise comparisons among different features and consequently increases the knowledge regarding these attributes in light of the software’s risk assessment.
