The demand for traceability of meat and livestock supply chains is growing due to the high-profile incidents of hormonal contamination. E. coli, dioxin, BSE, and antibiotics have been recorded. In this paper, we present blockchain-based poultry information management system design and implementation using Hyperledger Fabric. The proposed system offers accurate, decentralized, immutable and consensus process that promote trust and transparency between stakeholders. The main tasks of the system include the recording of the information associated with poultry rearing (from a hatchery to a farm), status report of the farm activities on a monthly basis. The system can track movement of docks through the supply chain until delivery to the final consumer through the retail outlet. The ability to trace the source of livestock product through all the stages of rearing/production, processing and distribution is essential for ensuring food safety as recall of contaminated product can easily be done thereby increasing consumer confidence.

하이퍼레저 패브릭(Hyperledger Fabric)은 참여자의 신원을 확인하고, 정보교환(트랜잭션)의 유효성을 검증하는 허가형 블록체인 모델이다. 기존의 대표적인 블록체인 모델인 비트코인, 이더리움과 대비하여 효율적인 데이터 검증 방안이 가능한대, 체인코드와 채널, 그리고 피어를 중심으로 구성되어 있기 때문이다. 먼저 본 블록체인 모델은 '체인코드'라는 스마트 계약(컨트랙트)를 실행하며 허가된 사용자만 네트워크에 참여할 수 있다. 또한, '채널' 기능이 있어 서로 다른 조직 간의 데이터 공유와 검증에 대한 새로운 접근방식을 보여줄 수 있으며, 특정 네트워크 내에서 데이터를 분리할 수 있다. 이를 통해 특정 데이터에 대한 접근권한을 제어하는 기능을 제공하며 동시에 데이터의 신뢰성과 보안성을 높일 수 있다. 마지막으로 '피어'는 체인코드를 통해 들어온 트랜잭션을 검증하고, 유효한 데이터만 원장에 추가하는 기법으로 무결성을 유지하는 데 중요한 역할 담당하고 있다. 본 연구결과를 기반으로 하이퍼레저 패브릭을 효과적으로 활용하여 데이터 검증 프로세스가 산업계에 널리 적용될 수 있기를 기대한다.

This paper proposes a method to protect the copyright of creators' content shared through an online sharing platform in a legal battle. When creators upload their independent creation content to the online sharing platform, it automatically upload information necessary for copyright effect to this system. The data warehouse of this system is as a private blockchain for to ensure non-repudiation and transparency of the information. We present that the data warehouse is to build as Hyperledger Fabric in this paper. And We present the transaction data structure of the blockchain to prevent orphan works. We also dealt with how to build a website where users can conveniently check the data (copyright related information) of this blockchain.

The uses of drones are increasing despite the fact that many of us are still skeptical. In the near future, the data that will be created and used by them will be very voluminous, hence the need to find an architecture that allows good identity management and access control in a decentralized way while guaranteeing security and privacy. In this article, we propose an architecture using hyperledger fabric blockchain platform which will manage the identity in a secure way starting with the registration of the drones on the network then an access control thanks to Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and membership service provider (MSP) to enable decision-making within the system.

Health information systems (HIS) are facing security challenges on data privacy and confidentiality. These challenges are based on centralized system architecture creating a target for malicious attacks. Blockchain technology has emerged as a trending technology with the potential to improve data security. Despite the effectiveness of this technology, still HIS are suffering from a lack of data privacy and confidentiality. This paper presents a blockchain-based data storage security architecture integrated with an e-Health care system to improve its security. The study employed a qualitative research method where data were collected using interviews and document analysis. Execute-order-validate Fabric's storage security architecture was implemented through private data collection, which is the combination of the actual private data stored in a private state, and a hash of that private data to guarantee data privacy. The key findings of this research show that data privacy and confidentiality are attained through a private data policy. Network peers are decentralized with blockchain only for hash storage to avoid storage challenges. Cost-effectiveness is achieved through data storage within a database of a Hyperledger Fabric. The overall performance of Fabric is higher than Ethereum. Ethereum's low performance is due to its execute-validate architecture which has high computation power with transaction inconsistencies. E-Health care system administrators should be trained and engaged with blockchain architectural designs for health data storage security. Health policymakers should be aware of blockchain technology and make use of the findings. The scientific contribution of this study is based on; cost-effectiveness of secured data storage, the use of hashes of network data stored in each node, and low energy consumption of Fabric leading to high performance.

Android Application Package (APK) is vulnerable to repackaging attacks. Therefore, obfuscation technology was applied inside the Android APK file to cope with repackaging attack. However, as more advanced reverse engineering techniques continue to be developed, fake Android APK files to be released. A new approach is needed to solve this problem. A blockchain is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography. Each block typically contains a cryptographic hash of theprevious block, a timestamp and transaction data. Once recorded, the data inany given block cannot be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks. Therefore, it is possible to check whether or not theAndroid Mobile APK is forged by applying the blockchain technology. In this paper, we construct a discrimination DApp (Decentralized Application) against forgery Android Mobile APK by recording and maintaining the legitimate APK in the consortium blockchain framework like Hyperledger Fabric by Composer. With proposed DApp, we can prevent the forgery and modification of the appfrom being installed on the user's Smartphone, and normal and legitimate apps will be widely used.

Recently, the need for health information management platforms has been increasing for efficient medical and IT technology research. However, health information is requiring security management by law. When permissioned blockchain technology is used to manage health information, the integrity is provided because only the authenticated users participate in bock generation. However, if the blockchain server is attacked, it is difficult to provide security because user authentication, block generation, and block verification are all performed on the blockchain server. In this paper, therefore, we propose a Health Information Management Server, which uses a permissioned blockchain algorithm and asymmetric cryptography. Health information is managed as a blockchain transaction to maintain the integrity, and the actual data are encrypted with an asymmetric key. Since using a private key kept in the institute local environment, the data confidentiality is maintained, even if the server is attacked. 1,000 transactions were requested, as a result, it was found that the server's average response time was 6,140ms, and the average turnaround time of bock generation was 368ms, which were excellent compared to those of conventional technology. This paper is that a model was proposed to overcome the limitations of permissioned blockchains.
