Since inception, blockchain has earned significant attention due to its exclusive characteristics and advantages. It has changed the way the transactions are conducted by eradicating the role of third parties and promises to ensure trust among the participants. This technology is emerging as a potential solution to several issues but not without certain security vulnerabilities. In particular, protection of sensitive data is a more critical issue in the absence of a third party. This paper is aimed to report and share the state of the art of sensitive data protection in blockchain applications. The covered aspects include identification of sensitive data, existing techniques to protect sensitive data and to know how real time data compromised by security risks, attacks, threats and vulnerabilities concerning blockchain applications. This paper analysis the tools and techniques used in the past for protecting sensitive data and categorized them. On the basis of research and intuitive findings, methods and techniques are elaborated which can contribute in future in the designing a framework for protection of sensitive data in blockchain applications.

Databases have revealed many vulnerabilities in which hackers can penetrate and gain access to the data. Blockchains have been proven useful to protect against fraud and data miners, exemplified in cryptocurrencies. In this paper, we propose a blockchain database framework as a non-relational database structure that integrates the properties of blockchains and databases. The independent variables when testing this database were the Append, Delete, Query, and Update functions in the database framework. We predicted that the Append, Query, and Update functions would have a logarithmic runtime and linear throughput; while the Delete function would have a constant runtime and throughput. The database was tested with about 150,000 operations with the server and client locally running. We observed the runtime was slightly positively correlated while the Delete was not positively correlated with the number of operations in the Append, Query, and Update functions. The throughput of the Append, Query, and Update functions were significantly negatively correlated with the number of operations. The blockchain database framework displayed end-to-end encryption and feasibility with this experiment. One possible application of the database framework is in the financial industry, as there is a one-to-one correspondence with user and transaction.

“…Blockchain databases combines properties of blockchain and databases and is a critical emerging technology for developing non-trivial smart contracts, distributed applications and decentralized marketplaces (Adkins et al, 2020). Blockchain enables information to be stored in shared databases using a distributed ledger technology also protects information from removal, corruption or alteration through cryptography and a consensus mechanism (Zheng et al, 2017;Morabito, 2017;Van Rijmenam & Ryan, 2018).…”

“…Among the features, one important feature of blockchain technology that is of interest is smart contracts. Smart contracts are executable codes that run on top of the blockchain to facilitate an agreement between untrusted parties (Nelaturu et al, 2020) Blockchain databases are continuously designed to support the development of decentralized applications for application in the development of smart contracts (Adkins et al, 2020) Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Houston, Texas, USA, June 13-15, 2023 © IEOM Society International Blockchain technology (BT) is expected to bring substantial improvements in the level of accountability, transparency, and traceability by maintaining information symmetry among the supply chain partners of short life products (Bronson & Knezevic, 2016;Carbonell, 2016). BT database management systems can act as a significant boost to manage records, purchase details & use of inventory, traceability, and financial transactions across the entire supply chain (Maru et al, 2018).…”

Remember internet boom of 1990s and how its usage changed the way we look at world? Blockchain technology (BT) is the Internet of present time. Studies highlighting ways to leverage the benefits of BT are being carried out aggressively and it's of keen interest for major industries and industrialists. Every new research in the area indicate various benefits of BT related to performance improvements. Therefore, to evaluate the enablers of blockchain adoption in smart contracts becomes essential and of great importance. For consumer driven economy like India, where implementation and adoption of BT has been sluggish, BT implementation can give strategic advantage to any industry, making it relevant to evaluate the feasibility and the importance of blockchain smart contracts in the electronic industry, which occupy a large share of the market. There are different enablers for BT adoption in different industries, and this study focuses on identifying and establishing the relationships between the enabler in the electronic supply chain. Eight enablers were considered after conducting a survey of the literature before applying the Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) technique to understand the complex relationships between the identified enablers. The result of the detailed analysis, highlighted traceability as the most significant enabler among others for BT-related smart contract adoption for the electronic industry. This result is of immense importance for managers in identifying and developing policies and strategies related to BT implementation for the firm.
