Exploring and envisioning the application of blockchain technology for privacy data protection

Abstract

Addressing the issue of data leakage in social networks, this paper presents a classification of users' privacy information and introduces various personal data protection schemes utilizing blockchain technology. These schemes employ timestamp data storage within the blockchain, hash function anonymization techniques, and the Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) asymmetric encryption algorithm for encrypting and digitally signing transmitted data files. This innovative blockchain-based approach effectively tackles privacy leakage concerns in social networks and sets a benchmark for research in data security and social network safety. In this article, we propose a unique blockchain-based data protection scheme, specifically designed for different types of privacy leaks. This innovative solution addresses the pervasive problem of privacy leaks in social networks. However, current methods require more computational power during data interaction, which may hinder performance. Future research will concentrate on optimizing blockchain computational efficiency, aiming to develop a more robust data privacy protection system for blockchain-based social networks. By enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of these privacy protection schemes, we hope to create a more secure environment for users to interact and share information on social platforms, ultimately fostering trust and confidence in digital social networks.
