BLOCKCHAIN FOR IOT SECURITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY IMPROVEMENT

Abstract

Security and confidentiality are required to protect personal data and reduce data redundancy. Nowadays, the Internet of Things or IoT is used in every possible way to improve the lifestyle by simplifying technology. The improvement of the confidentiality of data that are available on the internet should be done. This process can be done using a new-age technology called blockchain. This is a process to record the information in a certain way so that it can not be hacked or changed easily. Different case studies have proven that this technology can be helpful for the security of data. Blockchain technology is divided into four different parts and that is private, hybrid, public, and consortium (Georgiev et al. 2023). There is a dataset related to finance has been considered for the analysis for the practical implementation. The overall improvement has been done using a programming language called Python.
