Due to Bitcoin's innovative block structure, it is both immutable and decentralized, making it a valuable tool or instrument for changing current financial systems. However, the appealing features of Bitcoin have also drawn the attention of cybercriminals. The Bitcoin scripting system allows users to include up to 80 bytes of arbitrary data in Bitcoin transactions, making it possible to store illegal information in the blockchain. This makes Bitcoin a powerful tool for obfuscating information and using it as the command-and-control infrastructure for blockchain-based botnets. On the other hand, Blockchain offers an intriguing solution for IoT security. Blockchain provides strong protection against data tampering, locks Internet of Things devices, and enables the shutdown of compromised devices within an IoT network. Thus, blockchain could be used both to attack and defend IoT networks and communications.

Security is always a main concern in every domain, due to a rise in crime rate in a crowded event or suspicious lonely areas. Abnormal detection and monitoring have major applications of computer vision to tackle various problems. Due to growing demand in the protection of safety, security and personal properties, needs and deployment of video surveillance systems can recognize and interpret the scene and anomaly events play a vital role in intelligence monitoring. This paper implements automatic gun (or) weapon detection using a convolution neural network (CNN) based SSD and Faster RCNN algorithms. Proposed implementation uses two types of datasets. One dataset, which had pre-labelled images and the other one is a set of images, which were labelled manually. Results are tabulated, both algorithms achieve good accuracy, but their application in real situations can be based on the trade-off between speed and accuracy.
