Signature Scheme Based on The SM2 Algorithm in Fabric

Abstract

Based on the analysis and research of the widely used Hyperledger Fabric alliance chain structure, this paper proposes a digital signature scheme based on the national cryptographic algorithm SM2 which can be applied to Hyperledger Fabric. Firstly, two elliptic curve public-key cryptography algorithms are analyzed, and the feasibility of the SM2 in Fabric system is studied. Secondly, the Fabric system using the SM2 algorithm is designed and implemented, and the generation process of the Fabric chain address using the SM2 algorithm is given. Finally, experimental verification of the availability and performance of the Fabric system after the replacement of national cryptography algorithms is carried out. The experimental results show that the SM2 interface of the new Fabric alliance chain has good usability, and the average latency is reduced by 51.8%, and the transaction throughput is increased by 33.1%.
