Abstract: As organizations encounter rapid and exponential growth in their knowledge assets, the effective management of these essential resources has become increasingly critical. Traditional knowledge management systems often prove inadequate in terms of both capacity and functionality, limiting their ability to sufficiently support the organization’s knowledge needs. To overcome these limitations, this study explores the application of blockchain technology in developing a robust knowledge management system that emphasizes security, transparency, and the efficient handling of organizational knowledge assets. By integrating blockchain, we aim to enhance the integrity and accessibility of knowledge, ensuring that it continues to serve as a valuable resource within the organization. In the course of developing this system, smart contracts were implemented to automate key functions, such as user verification, data validation, and access control. This approach reduces dependence on intermediaries, mitigates the risks of data tampering, and prevents unauthorized access, ultimately fostering a more secure and efficient environment for managing organizational knowledge.
