Securing A Hyperledger Based Land Registration System

Abstract

Sri Lanka faces various problems related to frauds and forgery. Among them, frauds related to land registration and land sales have been increasing everyday due to some loose ends in the existing system for land registration. For the process of registering lands and storing land related information, the government majorly uses a paper-based and centralized system, and this decreases the efficiency and the transparency of the system. However, it could be seen that the government is slowly moving to a digitalized process considering the better maintenance of the service. Then the real problem arises with the security of the data in the digitalized system. Therefore, among many solutions, the Blockchain technology can be a better one to tackle the issues coming up with the existing models. Tamper-proof nature is the key quality in choosing this technology to develop this system. However, even in the suggested blockchain based system has many vulnerabilities and other issues.
