Abstract

Securing sensitive user information and maintaining privacy during authentication and authorization processes is crucial in today’s interconnected digital world. This study investigates new approaches to tackle these obstacles by combining blockchain technology with Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). The proposed system introduces a new method that combines the advantages of both technologies to create a strong and privacy-focused framework for network security. The study assesses the effectiveness of the suggested system based on key parameters, focusing specifically on Transaction Throughput (TPS) and Latency. The combination of blockchain and TEE aims to improve privacy protection and security protocols, providing a dependable solution for privacy-focused authentication and authorization in network settings. The experiments confirmed the efficacy of the proposed model. The Transaction Throughput (TPS) reached 296 transactions per second, demonstrating the system’s scalability and capacity to manage a large number of transactions. The Latency was measured at 54 milliseconds, indicating a fast and responsive authentication and authorization process. The research enhances the development of privacy-preserving solutions by emphasizing the importance of the blockchain and TEE collaboration. The proposed model surpasses performance expectations set by traditional methods, positioning itself as a significant advancement in network security. The results highlight the system’s ability to significantly improve privacy protection in digital transactions and set the stage for advancements in secure, efficient, and privacy-focused authentication and authorization systems. between the quantity demand and the price.
