“…This model provides the solution for the architectural security and protection against forged block attack but the drawback is every node needs more storage and computing power for storing data in the blockchain which needs to Be further investigated. In [30] a secure distributed vehicular network architecture is proposed for smart cities based on block chain and smart contract. The authors have proposed a trust management system where blockchain stores the trust value of the nodes, used to determine the authenticity of the nodes which are involved in the network.…”

Big Data As A Service Is Used In Today’s Scenario To Handle And Process The Big Amount Of Data Which Are Generated From Different Source Every Day. Since Data Is Stored On The Cloud Platform, The System Could Suffer A Failure And Give Attackers The Opportunity To Launch Various Categories Of Attacks.Manyresearcheshave Been Done In This Domain To Provide Security And Protection To The Data On Cloud. The Blockchain Technology Is A Secure, Distributed And Privacy-Preserving Decentralized Ledger Where The Transactions Are Flexible, Secure,Verifiable And Permanent Way.Here, The Transaction Data Is Encrypted Andkept In A Wrapped Block (I.E., Record) Which Are Spreadthrough The N/W In A Provable And Unabashedmode Across The Entire Network To Enhance Information Security And Data Privacy. In This Paperwe Have Proposed A Framework For An Access Control With Privacy Protection In Bdaas Based On Blockchain Technology. Here Blockchain Technology Is Used Only For Storing The Transaction Log Information Whenever Any Kind Of Event Log Occurred In System.

In this paper, a blockchain-based secure data sharing mechanism is proposed for Vehicular Networks (VNs). Edge service providers are introduced along with ordinary nodes to efficiently manage service provisioning. The edge service providers are placed in the neighborhood of the ordinary nodes to ensure smooth communication between them. The huge amount of data generated by smart vehicles is stored in a distributed file storage system, known as Interplanetary File System (IPFS). It is used to tackle the issues related to data storage in centralized architectures, such as data tampering, lack of privacy, vulnerability to hackers, etc. Monetary incentives are given to edge vehicle nodes to motivate them for accurate and timely service provisioning to ordinary nodes. In response, ordinary nodes give reviews to the edge nodes against the services provided by them, which are further stored in a blockchain to ensure integrity, security and transparency. Smart contracts are used to automate the system processes without the inclusion of an intermediate party and to check the reviews given to the edge nodes. To optimize gas consumption and to enhance the system performance, a Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus mechanism is used to validate the transactions. Moreover, a caching system is introduced at the edge nodes to store frequently used services. Furthermore, both security and privacy are enhanced in the proposed system by incorporating a symmetric key cryptographic mechanism. A trust management mechanism is also proposed in this work to calculate the nodes’ reputation values based upon their trust values. These values determine the authenticity of the nodes involved in the network. Eventually, it is concluded from the simulation results that the proposed system is efficient for VNs.
