Abstract

Blockchain technology has revolutionized various sectors such as trade finance, education, healthcare, the internet of things (IoT), and user identification with its groundbreaking potential. Its transformative influence on privacy, data integrity, and transactional reliability has significantly enhanced user authentication sharing across industries. Consequently, there is a pressing demand for a robust framework capable of providing seamless authentication between devices, cloud servers, and IoT base stations. This article presents into the critical need for such a framework, meticulously evaluating its feasibility in light of the scarce existing solutions that meet industry guidelines. The proposed framework reconciles two contrasting perspectives, thoroughly examining 11 distinct factors and highlighting key features uncovered through rigorous research. The findings have implications for the future of secure authentication.
