Intro basics of modeling user rights management for the university diploma issuing process with the support of the Hyperledger Fabric
The protection and preservation of the privacy of personal data are one of the main requirements when it comes to an application dealing with the processing of such data. It is no different when it comes to information systems that store and process data about students in higher education systems. The public presentation of such data represents a serious threat to the safety of students as well as their status within the higher education system. For this reason, it is necessary to use the possibility of advanced technologies in order to raise data security to the highest level. One such technology that is able to provide transparency, security and data protection at a high level is blockchain technology. In this work, the Hyperledger Fabric distributed ledger private blockchain network was analyzed and its usability in terms of user rights management in higher education system was evaluated. Experimental analysis showed that such a platform has the ability to take advantage of private blockchain technologies in terms of user rights management and to provide security, flexibility and scalability of the system.
