The rapid spread of COVID-19 made it necessary to quickly collect and share viral genomic sequences, sometimes making quantity prevail over the quality of information. Can research pay this price? Blockchain technology, based on the concept of a ledger that guarantees the authenticity and traceability of information, could be the best applicable solution.

Enterprise internal audit data encryption based on blockchain technology.
PLoS One
January 2025
Taiyuan University, Taiyuan, China.
Internal auditing demands innovative and secure solutions in today's business environment, with increasing competitive pressure and frequent occurrences of risky and illegal behaviours. Blockchain along with secure databases like encryption improves internal audit security through immutability and transparency. Hence integrating blockchain with homomorphic encryption and multi-factor authentication improves privacy and mitigates computational overhead.

Sensors (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Information and Communication Engineering, Yeungnam University, Gyeongsan 38541, Republic of Korea.
In this paper, we propose a Proof-of-Location (PoL)-based location verification scheme for mitigating Sybil attacks in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). For this purpose, we employ smart contracts for storing the location information of the vehicles. This smart contract is maintained by Road Side Units (RSUs) and acts as a ground truth for verifying the position information of the neighboring vehicles.

Frequent user data breaches and misuse incidents highlight the flaws in current identity management systems. This study proposes a blockchain-based, peer-supervised self-sovereign identity (SSI) generation and privacy protection technology. Our approach creates unique digital identities on the blockchain, enabling secure cross-domain recognition and data sharing and satisfying the essential users' requirements for SSI.
