In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, Guaranteeing the safety and confidentiality of digital assets, particularly images, has become imperative. Blockchain has arisen as a leading solution for ensuring decentralized and unchangeable data storage, backed by strong cryptographic security measures. This paper presents a systematic review that investigates the impact of blockchain on enhancing security and privacy for encrypted and watermarked digital images. By synthesizing existing literature, our objective is to comprehensively analyze the efficacy of blockchain integration in safeguarding the integrity and confidentiality of digital image assets. Our review covers various aspects including encryption techniques, watermarking methods, and blockchain implementations. Additionally, we assess the research goals, motivations, and future directions in leveraging blockchain for image security and privacy enhancement. This review provides critical insights for scholars, professionals, and lawmakers into blockchain technology’s ability to greatly improve digital image preservation across a wide range of applications, including the health sector and intellectual ownership administration.
