University of Basrah Examines a Master’s Thesis on Designing an Authentication Scheme Using Blockchain Technology
The College of Education for Pure Sciences at the University of Basrah examined a master’s thesis on designing a robust authentication and verification scheme within an integrated environment using blockchain technology.
The thesis, submitted by researcher Ni‘mah Majid Ni‘mah, addressed the security of smart vehicular networks connected to healthcare Internet of Things (IoT) systems, with a particular focus on the security challenges associated with linking a driver’s identity to the vehicle itself. The researcher discussed two advanced security authentication schemes: the first was based on biometric verification and a virtual smart card supported by blockchain technology, while the second focused on two-factor authentication and fog computing.
The thesis concluded that the proposed system is efficient in achieving a high level of security and reliability, while maintaining computational and communication costs suitable for practical implementation in future smart environments.
