Abstract

This study examines the suitability of the IPFS as a decentralized architecture for secure digital data exchange. Traditional centralized protocols, such as HTTP, introduce structural vulnerabilities, including single points of failure, metadata exposure, and susceptibility to interception or unauthorized modification. As digital data exchange becomes increasingly essential in various sectors, ensuring data security and privacy has become a growing concern. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate IPFS’s ability to address these vulnerabilities and enhance the security and privacy of digital data-sharing environments. This research employs a structured literature review to synthesize findings from distributed-systems research, cryptographic studies, and peer-to-peer networking analyses. Additionally, the study benchmarks IPFS against traditional storage protocols, such as HTTP and FTP, to assess its advantages and limitations. The results demonstrate that IPFS offers significant advantages, including content-addressed storage, Merkle-DAG verification, and decentralized peer replication. These features improve fault tolerance, ensure data integrity, and reduce the risks of data tampering. However, limitations, such as content availability and reliance on node uptime, are also noted. While IPFS is not a complete security solution, it provides a strong foundational architecture for privacy-preserving, distributed data-sharing workflows when paired with complementary cryptographic and governance frameworks, making it a viable alternative for secure digital data exchange.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the implementation of blockchain technology in tax administration to improve taxpayer compliance and state revenue. The research method used involves a literature study, secondary data analysis, and interviews with experts in taxation and blockchain technology. The background of this research is the challenges faced by the government in minimizing tax non-compliance and improving the efficiency of tax administration. The main object is to evaluate the potential of blockchain as a solution to create transparency, security, and accountability in the tax system. The method used is a quantitative approach through distributing questionnaires to 11 respondents consisting of the directorate general of taxation, taxation employees, the public as service users. Results show that blockchain implementation can reduce the risk of data manipulation, increase taxpayer confidence through transparency, and support more accurate reporting and monitoring. In addition, the use of smart contracts can simplify taxation processes, such as automatic tax calculation and direct payments. The conclusion of this study confirms that blockchain has significant potential to improve tax compliance and revenue, but challenges such as implementation costs, regulations, and infrastructure readiness need to be considered. This research provides recommendations for the government to consider a phased implementation strategy with pilot projects to ensure the successful application of blockchain technology in tax administration.
