Abstract

With population rising to approximately 200 million Nigerians – fast-paced, urbanization has continued to advent food insecurity with maladministration, corruption, internal rife, and starvation. These, threatened the nation's unity with the lockdown of 2020; and consequently, have now become the trend. Nigeria must as a nation, re-examine her methods in the administration of palliatives (in lieu of food and relief) distribution – as the above-listed issues have become of critical need in the equitable distribution of reliefs, both from the humanitarian agency view, and the Government (State and Federal). They have noticed non-transparency, corruption, and data inadequacies, as major drawbacks in its management. Our study presents a blockchain ensemble for the administration of food palliatives distribution in Nigeria that first ensures, that all beneficiaries be registered, and the food palliatives are sensor-tagged and recorded on the blockchain. Results show the number of transactions per second and page retrieval abilities for the proposed chain were quite low with 30-TPS and 0.38seconds respectively – as compared to public blockchain. Proposed ensemble eliminates fraud that is herein rippled across the existing system, minimizes corrupt practices via sensor-based model, provides insight for stakeholders, and minimize the error in reported data on the supply chain.

Abstract

Cryptographic algorithms guarantee data and information security via a communication system against unauthorized users or intruders. Numerous encryption techniques have been employed to safeguard this data and information from hackers. By supplying a distinct shared secret key, the n-party Diffie Hellman key exchange approach has been used to protect data from hackers. Using a quadratic time complexity, the n-party Diffie-Hellman method is slow when multiple users use the cryptographic key interchange system. To solve this issue, the researchers created an effective shared hidden key for the n-party Diffie Hellman key exchange of a cryptographic system using the divide-and-conquer strategy. The current research recommends the use of the divide and conquer algorithm, which breaks down the main problem into smaller subproblems until it reaches the base solution, which is then merged to generate the solution of the main problem. The comparative analysis indicates that the developed system generates a shared secret key faster than the current n-party Diffie Hellman system.
