Shan Wang, Ming Yang, Tingjian Ge, Yan Luo, Xinwen Fu

TL;DR
This paper presents BBS, a blockchain-based system using Hyperledger Fabric for secure, autonomous sharing of large big data files with a documented chain of custody, enhancing data security and traceability.
Contribution
The paper introduces a novel blockchain big-data sharing system that automates the sharing process and ensures data integrity and security for large files.
Findings
BBS effectively records the chain of custody for big data sharing.
The system performs well in experiments validating feasibility and performance.
BBS can prevent dishonest receivers during data sharing.
Abstract
Chain of custody is needed to document the sequence of custody of sensitive big data. In this paper, we design a blockchain big-data sharing system (BBS) based on Hyperledger Fabric. We denote the data stored outside of a ledger for sharing as "off-state" and "big data" (referring to extremely large data) is in this category. In our off-state sharing protocol, a sender registers a file with BBS for sharing. To acquire the file, an authenticated and authorized receiver has to use transactions and interacts with BBS in four phases, including the file transfer request, encrypted file transfer, key retrieval, and file decryption. The corresponding transactions are recorded in the ledger and serve as chain of custody to document the trail of the data. Compared with related work, BBS can perform the four phases autonomously. It utilizes the permissioned blockchain, i.e. Hyperledger Fabric,…
