Enterprise Blockchain-Based Privacy Sharing on Internet of Things Devices

Abstract

Nowadays, the Internet of things systems became integrated into our lives. Data produced by the sensors on these systems can be considered personal data that is private. Legal regulations such as the general data protection regulation GDPR secure the storage and sharing of these personal data. It is not easy to automatically control these systems with legal regulations. In this study, we present a new privacy-sharing method of providing privacy for personal data sharing. This method ensures that using blockchain technology secures all privacy sharing steps. We used Quorum as the blockchain infrastructure that is an enterprise blockchain, making data transparently available to the peers in a private and permissioned network.
