Blockchain technology is well known for the transparency and immutability of the data stored in it. These characteristics are essential in a document management system where security mechanisms are required to prevent information forgery. Therefore, several authors have chosen to take advantage of the benefits of Blockchain technology in their document management systems for academic, medical, and work-related documents, among others. However, its implementation must include elements that reinforce information security, since documents often contain sensitive information that requires special treatment. This article reviews the most recent articles on document management with Blockchain in order to extract the security elements implemented in their solutions and make a synthesis that can be used as a guide for anyone interested in developing a similar system.
