  A ledger ensures the security of digital currencies through the use of cryptographic techniques. Each transaction is encrypted and linked to the previous transaction, forming a chain of blocks. This blockchain is distributed across multiple nodes in a decentralized network, making it difficult for any single entity to manipulate the data. Additionally, the use of public and private keys ensures that only authorized individuals can access and modify the ledger. These security measures provide a high level of protection against fraud and unauthorized access.

  The security of digital currencies is also ensured through consensus algorithms such as Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS). These algorithms require participants in the network to solve complex mathematical problems or hold a certain amount of cryptocurrency to validate transactions. This ensures that only honest participants can contribute to the ledger, preventing malicious actors from tampering with the data. Furthermore, regular audits and inspections of the ledger by independent third parties help maintain transparency and trust in the system.
