An Implementation of Data Privacy on Multi-Cloud Using Blockchain Smart Contract and Zero Knowledge Proof Based Trinsic SSI
Keywords:
privacy; security; multi-cloud; Self-sovereign identity; smart contract and Blockchain.Abstract
It is necessary to ensure data privacy to encourage user participation in sharing data especially on multi-cloud environment. It is observed that such mechanisms that show the concern for avoiding privacy leakage is seldom addressed. Leveraging zero-knowledge proof based Self-Sovereign Identity for multi-cloud coupled with decentralized smart contract application on blockchain enable data sharing in consent and in control by the individual. The research work explores a novel architecture which is powered by the convergence of contemporary technologies to achieve the solution for collaborative data control. The smart contract designed automates data sharing without privacy violation considering digital identities assigned for individuals. The performance analysis of the smart contract in mutli-cloud environment with the new architecture demonstrate appreciable execution taking approximately less than 10 seconds. Further, overall performance of the architecture, tools, technologies fusion assures for introducing new digital landscape for preventing privacy leakage.
