Cross-heterogeneous Domain Authentication Scheme Based on Blockchain

With the rising popularity of the Internet and the development of big data technology, an increasing number of organizations are opting to cooperate across domains to maximize their benefits. Most organizations use public key infrastructure to ensure security in accessing their data and applications. However, with the continuous development of identity-based encryption (IBE) technology, small- and medium-sized enterprises are increasingly using IBE to deploy internal authentication systems. To solve the problems that arise when crossing heterogeneous authentication domains and to guarantee the security of the certification process, we propose using blockchain technology to establish a reliable cross-domain authentication scheme. Using the distributed and tamper-resistant characteristics of the blockchain, we design a cross-domain authentication model based on blockchain to guarantee the security of the heterogeneous authentication process and present a cross-domain authentication protocol based on blockchain. This model does not change the internal trust structure of each authentication domain and is highly scalable. Furthermore, on the premise of ensuring security, the process of
