Abstract

Preserving privacy in cloud-based apps is a significant issue, especially in multi-party collaborations, where data security, authentication, and effective administration are essential. This study presents a hybrid paradigm that integrates Bloom Filters with Blockchain Public Key Infrastructure to improve data privacy and security. Bloom Filters facilitate effective data validation with little processing resources, whilst Blockchain PKI guarantees decentralized and tamper-resistant authentication. This method resolves current deficiencies in scalability, computing efficiency, and robustness, presenting prospective applications in sectors such as education, healthcare, and IoT. The advantages, obstacles, and constraints are examined to offer a conceptual comprehension of the suggested method.
