A blockchain-secure mobility data in smart campus

Abstract

Acquiring knowledge of the patterns of human mobility within a university setting is a critical endeavor that can facilitate the development of effective strategies for future work programs. It is essential to ascertain the positions of campus inhabitants as they engage in daily activities that align with the institution’s work plan framework. Nonetheless, the paramount challenge associated with the presence of personal data on human movement is ensuring the utmost security of this sensitive information. Blockchain technology offers a solution by enabling the safeguarding of personal data through the decentralization of information, wherein individuals act as controllers in a distributed cloud network. In the present study, a straight-forward system comprising GPS sensors and a Raspberry Pi is employed to detect personnel’s location data. The SHA256 algorithm is utilized to generate a hash that connects the constituent blocks, thereby significantly enhancing data security. The intricate hash computation is validated through the implementation of proof-of-work, which generates pertinent binary data at an expeditious block mining time of 16.64 milliseconds. This approach effectively thwarts cyberattacks and ensures the maximum protection of dat
