Secure Blockchain-based Storage with Meta-Key – Data Sharing Mechanism
G. Subathra, ANTONIDOSS · 2020 Fourth International Conference on Inventive Systems and Control (ICISC) · 2020
The Blockchain mechanism is used for enriching the security of the data storage. The Meta-Key plays a vital role in Meta-Key Mechanism which employs a data-sharing mechanism in which a user encrypts their data using the blockchain mechanism. The encrypted keys include the private key and public key are used for designing a Meta-Key using blockchain architecture. It enriches the security of the stored key more safe and secure. The proposed Meta-Key mechanism is designed using the Block Chain mechanism. In the proposed system, the used keys are encrypted using blockchain in a continuous relational fashion. The continuous relational fashion generates a high complexity to the vulnerability of data security is being compromised. The re-encryption is also used for distributed networks. The overhead of encryption and traffic congestion is analyzed. It is found that the security of the data storage is improved while using the proposed Meta-Key mechanism and the size of the traffic congestion is the ignorable amount.
