Abstract

Blockchain technology presents transformative opportunities for secure personal data sharing, particularly in healthcare, finance, and identity management. However, its widespread adoption is constrained by challenges such as limited scalability, privacy concerns, and conflicts with regulatory frameworks like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This study introduces a novel hybrid framework that integrates the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) for off-chain storage with Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) to enhance privacy, ensure regulatory compliance, and reduce on-chain storage demands. Employing a Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, the framework was developed and validated using Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric, guided by insights from a systematic review of 180 studies from 2018 to 2023. Empirical evaluations revealed a 75% reduction in blockchain storage, 98% GDPR compliance, and zk-SNARK proof verification times below one second. The framework also enables GDPR-compliant erasure by removing encrypted off-chain data while preserving on-chain auditability. Despite challenges such as IPFS latency and trusted setup complexities, the solution offers a scalable and privacy-preserving architecture applicable to real-world domains, especially in privacy-critical environments like healthcare and finance by resolving blockchain’s GDPR compliance paradox.

Abstract

The increasing demand for secure, scalable, and decentralized data management in blockchain ecosystems has intensified the need for eefective off-chain storage solutions. Traditional blockchain infrastructures offer limited storage capacity, prompting the integration of decentralized protocols such as the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) and Filecoin. While both enable distributed data sharing, they differ significantly in architecture, incentive mechanisms, and security assurances. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) of 35 peer-reviewed studies, combined with a technical evaluation of IPFS and Filecoin across five critical dimensions: performance, security, incentive models, integration feasibility, and application-specific suitability. Empirical findings indicate that IPFS provides faster data retrieval (average latency ~210 ms) and simpler integration, making it well-suited for low-risk, real-time data scenarios. However, it lacks native incentivization for long-term data persistence. In contrast, Filecoin offers higher data availability (~99.9%) and verifiable storage proofs via its token-based reward system, enhancing durability and auditability, albeit with increased latency and operational overhead. The analysis reveals that neither protocol alone fully addresses the security–scalability–persistence trade-off inherent in decentralized systems. Instead, the results advocate for hybrid architectures that combine IPFS’s performance strengths with Filecoin’s robust data assurance features. This paper contributes a structured decision-making framework to support the selection and deployment of context-appropriate off-chain storage models. The findings aim to guide researchers and practitioners in designing resilient, privacy-preserving blockchain infrastructures, particularly in domains where data integrity, verifiability, and long-term accessibility are essential.

Abstract

Blockchain technology has emerged as a transformative solution for decentralized and immutable data storage, offering transparency and security across various industries. However, ensuring authorized data access remains a critical challenge in blockchain systems. Encryption-based access control mechanisms are pivotal in mitigating unauthorized access, yet their implementation varies significantly across different blockchain platforms. This study provides a comprehensive comparison of encryption-based access control schemes in three prominent blockchain platforms: Ethereum, Hyperledger Fabric, and Corda. The analysis focuses on their strengths, weaknesses, and suitability for various use cases, evaluating security, scalability, and usability. The findings reveal distinct trade-offs among the platforms, highlighting the need for tailored solutions based on specific application requirements. Future research directions, including hybrid access control models and post-quantum cryptography, are also discussed.

Abstract

Emerging data-sharing paradigms demand robust mechanisms to ensure user consent is dynamically managed while preserving data sovereignty. This paper proposes a blockchain-driven consent management model that leverages smart contracts, offline storage, and a JavaScript/JSON front end to empower data owners in healthcare, finance, and identity management. The framework decentralizes consent logging, automates access enforcement, and integrates GDPR-compliant "right to revoke" functionalities, addressing critical gaps in existing systems such as offline accessibility, cross-industry interoperability, and regulatory compliance. A mixed-methods approach—combining a systematic literature review (SLR) of 150 studies (2018–2023) and three case studies—validates the model's efficacy. Performance benchmarks reveal sub-second consent updates, 99.98% audit accuracy, and 40% reduced breach risks compared to centralized systems. The hybrid architecture employs a two-tiered design, with an on-chain layer for immutable consent logging and an offline layer for local data storage, ensuring enforceability even during network outages. The front end, built using React.js and Ethers.js, provides a user-friendly interface for non-technical users to define and manage consent terms. Security protocols, including FIDO2 authentication and AES-256-GCM encryption, ensure robust protection against unauthorized access. Challenges include gas cost volatility in public blockchains and latency in multi-chain consent synchronization. The study contributes a novel hybrid architecture, open-source front-end tools, and a regulatory alignment roadmap for decentralized consent ecosystems. Case studies in healthcare, finance, and identity management demonstrate the model's practical applicability, with unauthorized access reduced by 40% and user satisfaction scores exceeding 4.7/5. Future work will explore AI-driven consent drafting, interoperability standards, and quantum-resistant cryptography to further enhance the model's scalability and security. This research advances the state of the art in blockchain-based consent management, offering a scalable, secure, and user-centric solution for data sovereignty in the digital age.

Abstract

Solutions for cloud computing are growing in popularity as a means for businesses to streamline operations, save expenses and increase productivity. The benefit of cloud services is that they let customers access on-demand apps and services from a shared pool of programmable computer resources and store data offsite. Cloud computing resource allocation requires sophisticated tools and methodologies for optimal utilization. These problems include load balancing, efficient resource management and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The majority of businesses are switching to cloud services and advising their customers to use internet services. However, effective resource allocation is critical for improving performance and lowering costs in this area. Due to unpredictable network traffic in cloud computing, resource allocation is challenging, which causes customers to complain about application timeouts, delayed system times and higher bandwidth use during peak hours. This entails allocating resources to various users and programs, such as memory, processing power, storage, and network bandwidth. In this regard, this study compares the performance ensemble method, which is stepwise Gaussian Linear Autoregressive (SGLA), and the individual method which is autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA). The Matlab tool is used for simulation and evaluation of the results. The results show SGLA prediction accuracy increased to an average of 98.9%, and ARIMA prediction showed an accuracy of 75.5%. In this regard, the ensemble method performed better than individual methods using the same datasets. The study recommends the ensemble method for the prediction and allocation of resources in cloud computing.

Abstract

Organizations need to understand the importance of resource allocation and traffic forecasting for cloud computing more than ever because of the increasing demand for online services, data storage and remote work, which makes it challenging to estimate traffic and distribute resources. In cloud computing, there is still opportunity for increasing the model's forecast accuracy. The more accurate the traffic flow, the better the resource allocation. Therefore, this study investigate the adequate data analytic frameworks for managing cloud computing resource allocation in the organisation, According to the findings, six technique were used just for prediction, while one was utilized solely for resource allocation. In this sense, cloud computing resource allocation and prediction may be achieved by combining several techniques.this paper contributes the review to identify adequate data analytic frameworks for managing cloud computing resource allocation.
