4. Auditing Transactions in AgrospAI
How to audit the transactions made in AgrospAI?
Provenance and Traceability of Transactions
All transactions, both publishing, acquiring, and consuming assets from the data space, are recorded using distributed ledger technology (DLT or blockchain) to make it an immutable record. All transactions can also be viewed in the record explorer for the blockchain network used, as shown in Fig. 9 for the Pontus-X Devnet development network.
Thanks to the blockchain record, it is possible to link all assets to the participants who published them, limit to that participant who can edit or revoke the asset, track all acquisitions of the assets and verify that only a participant who has acquired an asset can consume it. Consequently, through the record explorer, it is possible to audit the AgrospAI data space.
