Currently, the permit process is paper-based and hence highly prone to manipulations and errors. Being aware of blockchains’ potential, the CITES Secretariat defined a challenge to determine whether a blockchain-based system can address the aforementioned issues and serve as a secure, efficient, and affordable permit processing system. In this paper, we respond to the CITES Blockchain Challenge. First, we analyze the permit process and discuss how blockchain systems can improve that process in a way traditional systems cannot. Building on these results, we design a blockchain-based system that enables secure, manipulation-resistant permit validation, produces an immutable record of processed permits, and is in compliance with the CITES agreement. To evaluate this design, we developed a proof-of-concept implementation compatible with the paper-based permit process and deployed it to a Proof-of-Authority-based blockchain network. This allows incremental adoption and integration with the existing process, thereby increasing acceptance and addressing affordability. Finally, we describe how a blockchain-based system could disruptively improve the established permit process by enforcing quotas and tracking provenance.","PeriodicalId":314490,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency (ICBC)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131941239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In some situations (e.g. emergency situations), cross-organizational collaboration is needed, providing external users access to internal services. Trust between partners in such a collaboration can however be an issue. Although (federated) access control policies may be in place, it is unclear which data was requested and delivered after a collaboration has finished. This may lead to disputes between participating organizations. The open-source permissioned blockchain Hyperledger Fabric is utilized to create a logging mechanism for the actions performed by the participants in such a collaboration. This paper presents the architecture needed for such a logging mechanism and provides details on its operation. A prototype was designed in order to evaluate the performance of an asynchronous logging approach. Measurements show that the proposed logging mechanism enables organizations to create a log of service interactions with limited delay imposed on the data exchange process.","PeriodicalId":314490,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency (ICBC)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114185462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research indicates that a successful ICO could provide a helpful precedence for those who are in need of raising funds in the near future. In addition, the results could help the regulatory authorities identify the elements and factors which should be taken into consideration if ICOs were subject to regulation. The purpose of this study is to discover the factors which may affect the success of an ICO from 533 ICO samples which successfully raised over 5 million US dollars during the past two-year period. In general, we found that the following elements of ICOs have significant positive correlation to the final amount of fund raised, including, a higher amount of total token supply, acceptance of fiat as consideration in exchange for tokens, using the USA as an issue country, a higher percentage of token allocation to subscribers, a higher percentage of token allocation to advisors, a higher percentage of token allocation to ecosystem development, and introducing a post-ICO bonus scheme. On the contrary, we found that the following have a negative correlation to the final amount of the fund raised in an ICO: making use of bonus schemes in the ICO process, and applying longer lock-up periods in an ICO. We hope the research result will provide a new perspective for fund raisers and the government authorities.","PeriodicalId":314490,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency (ICBC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132842062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most existing access control schemes rely on a centralized party to manage and enforce access control policies. As decentralized ledger technologies, especially permissioned networks, find more applicability beyond cryptocurrencies in enterprise solutions is expected that the security requirements will increase. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an access control system that works in a decentralized environment without compromising the unique features of a decentralized ledger. Decentralized ledger based access control schemes have been proposed but have limitations such as lack of capability to protect the access history and detect/tolerate malicious participants. In order to address these concerns, we propose a novel decentralized ledger based access control system that utilizes cryptography. The newly proposed system is flexible and works with various storage system. The proposed system also provides verifiability for end users to detect compromised nodes in the decentralized ledger and high level privacy. We implement the scheme using Hyperledger Fabric and give detailed information of the prototype, and also assess its performance to show that it is practical for real world applications.","PeriodicalId":314490,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Blockchain and Cryptocurrency (ICBC)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114853898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
