Blockchain-Based Access and Timeliness Control for Administrative Punishment Market Supervision

Abstract

Administrative punishment is one of the most important ways of enforcing administrative law in the field of market supervision in China. However, at the current stage, the abuse of data access permission and the difficulty in managing timeliness in administrative punishment still remain unresolved, which hinders the legalization and standardization of the administrative punishment system. Inspired by blockchain, which is inherently traceable, tamper-proof, and transparent, we design a system, punishment supervisor (PEATS), which is suitable for administrative punishment and technically overcomes the defects of the traditional administrative punishment procedure. To prevent the abuse of data access permission, we innovatively introduce the ACG (authorization control gateway) to verify the access permission of users based on the records in the MSD (market supervision department) contract. To ensure the timeliness of the administrative punishment procedure, we design a special case contract that has the same status as the general case processing state of administrative punishment to track case progress on the blockchain. We experiment and evaluate PEATS in terms of functionality and performance and find that PEATS provides traceability, transparency, and timeliness assurance. In addition, PEATS has 80.9% of the throughput of a traditional server with no more than an additional 3% latency and at most 60 KB additional storage space per case.

“…Despite the convenience and benefits of cloud services, concerns about security vulnerabilities remain one of the primary obstacles to universal adoption under real-time use cases [4,5,6]. The multiple layers of cloud architecture-from data storage and transfer to user access and authentication-each come with their own set of risks, making it critical to have a comprehensive approach to security process [7,8,9]. This is done via use of Blockchain-Based Privacy-Aware Contextual Online Learning (BPACOL) operations.…”
