Abstract

AbstractThe indiscriminate distribution of a large number of unlicensed images through the Internet seriously harms the benefits of image owners, which prompts the study of image copyright protection solutions. Existing blockchain‐free solutions are limited to using centralized servers to store copyright information, leaving data vulnerable to being lost or tampered with by external attacks. Although the blockchain‐based image copyright protection solutions are capable of addressing the above problem, improvements are needed in choosing a suitable blockchain platform and supporting integrated copyright life cycle management. To this end, this paper designs a blockchain‐based reliable image copyright protection system named BB‐RICP using Hyperledger Fabric. For one thing, the adoption of Fabric mitigates the limitations of other blockchain platforms represented by Ethereum in terms of efficiency, economy, and availability. For another, BB‐RICP successes in achieving integrated copyright lifecycle management. In addition, BB‐RICP achieves enhanced applicability performance by firstly introducing GM algorithms recommended by Chinese national standard and adapting the more consortium blockchain‐oriented practical byzantine fault tolerance algorithm. Moreover, the adoption of spread spectrum watermarking brings convenience to users. Finally, Kubernetes is used to assist in the simulation of BB‐RICP to verify that users can operate reliably in the blockchain network.
