Abstract :
The rapid digitization of information sharing
and document exchange in various sectors, including
healthcare, finance, and governmental services, has
underscored the critical need for robust security
mechanisms. Traditional methods often fall short in
ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of
shared documents, leading to vulnerabilities in data
privacy and security. This research paper introduces a
groundbreaking approach to secure document exchange
by leveraging the inherent properties of blockchain
technology. Through a comprehensive analysis, we
explore how blockchain's decentralized nature,
cryptographic security, and immutability can be
harnessed to create a secure and efficient platform for
information sharing. We begin by delineating the
current challenges in document exchange systems, such
as susceptibility to cyber-attacks, fraud, and
unauthorized access. Subsequently, we propose a
blockchain-based framework that addresses these issues
by enabling transparent and tamper-proof transactions,
ensuring data integrity, and facilitating secure access
control. Our methodology includes the development of a
prototype system that employs smart contracts for
automating and securing document exchange processes.
Through rigorous testing and evaluation, we
demonstrate the system's ability to withstand various
security threats, including data breaches and
interception attacks.
