In the modern era, managing and preserving digital evidence securely and transparently has become essential. Traditional evidence management systems often rely on centralized architectures, making them susceptible to tampering and lacking in robust traceability. Blockchain technology, coupled with de-centralized storage solutions like the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), offers a cutting-edge solution. This paper reviews existing research on blockchain applications for evidence management and highlights advances in this area. By integrating role-based access control (RBAC) and smart contracts, blockchain ensures data integrity, accessibility, and transparency. These advancements have practical implications, such as enabling reliable evidence tracking in legal proceedings, improving transparency in forensic investigations, and creating tamper-proof records for critical digital assets. This survey also addresses challenges such as scalability and computational demands while proposing improvements to strengthen evidence management processes.
