The present invention provides an information traceability method and system based on a blockchain. The method includes: receiving a traceability request, where the traceability request includes a type label, a time label, and a content label; accessing information path data pre-stored in the blockchain based on the type label to obtain target path data, where the target path data is single-source path data or multi-source path data; determining a corresponding primary data set based on the time label, where the target path data includes a plurality of primary data sets; determining a corresponding secondary data set based on the content label, where the primary data set includes at least one secondary data set; and extracting path information from the secondary data set, and obtaining at least one information source based on the path information. In the technical solution of the present invention, an information source can be quickly located based on different labels in the traceability request during information traceability, which reduces a volume of data traversed during searching for the information source, saves a time for searching for the information source, and has relatively high efficiency.

A single sign-on system using blockchain is disclosed. The single sign-on system may interconnect various organization systems over a peer-to-peer network, with each organization system having a blockchain node and an application programming interface (API). The blockchain node invokes and uses a smart contract to write registration credentials to the blockchain during a registration process. During a login process, the blockchain node invokes the smart contract to determine whether login credentials match stored login credentials in the blockchain. In response to matching login credentials, the API may generate a single sign-on token that can be used by a user device to access one or more organization systems connected over the network.

Techniques are described for managing devices, such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices, using smart contract(s) on a distributed ledger (e.g., blockchain). Smart contract(s) executing on a distributed ledger may control access to one or more devices in a home or other environment. The smart contract(s) may employ information stored on the distributed ledger and information in a transaction sent to the smart contract(s) to determine whether particular user(s) and/or process(es) may access the device(s), issue commands to the device(s), access data generated by the device(s), and/or control the device(s). The smart contract(s) may provide a secure portal through which user(s) and/or service(s) may access device(s) for command and control of such device(s), and secure access may be based on permission information that is specified or provided by an owner or operator of the device(s) and that is stored on the distributed ledger.

Abstract:
2000 char max
This invention is directed toward a communications server that enables individual actors on the Internet to be registered, their identities to be confirmed at an acceptable level of confidence, and their association with, and/or ownership of, certain user identifiers (such as email addresses, phone numbers, domain names, application usernames, and the like), to be verified. The invention also enables Internet actors communicate at different levels of security and to encrypt or sign digital messages and/or documents between each other while maintaining sole possession and control of their private cryptographic keys. To ensure the integrity of user information on the communications server has not been compromised, the invention includes embodiments to periodically backup crucial data in a publicly accessible blockchain format that cannot reasonably be altered, but can be independently verified.

Abstract:
2000 char max
A system includes a plurality of first building components, a private local blockchain, a second building component, and a client device. The private local blockchain includes a device ledger indicating each first building component, a transaction ledger maintaining a plurality of blocks corresponding to a transaction between at least two first building components and including at least one first unique identifier of the corresponding first building component and a timestamp of the transaction, a transaction processor that generates at least one block by executing a predetermined hash function using a previous block, and a local rule engine defining rules to evaluate a transaction. The second building component has at least one second unique identifier. The client device provides the at least one second unique identifier to the private local blockchain. The private local blockchain determines whether to add the second building component to the device ledger.

Inventors:  Genders: F=0, M=2
Abstract:
2000 char max
A secure mechanism for adding network devices uses an unsecure guest network and a secure network both coupled to a secure hub. When an unknown device is introduced, it is initially connected to the guest network and can only communicate with the hub and with a wide area network (WAN). The unknown device is prohibited from communicating with the secure network and any device connected to the secure network. The unknown device provides credentials to the hub, which are verified with a secure database, such as a blockchain ledger, that provides manufacturer device information and certification. Upon authentication, the hub permits the identified device to connect to the secure network. The hub may also configure the now identified device for security and operational parameters. The hub may also retrieve network traffic pattern information from the secure database and use such information to monitor normal expected activity from the identified device.

Abstract:
2000 char max
The technology described herein documents interactions in a cloud computing environment. The system creates a first partition within the cloud computing environment for a first entity and a second partition within the cloud computing environment for a second entity. A blockchain ledger can be created for a set of interactions between the first entity and the second entity, where the blockchain ledger is disengaged when the first entity and the second entity are not interacting.

Abstract:
2000 char max
Mechanisms for implementing a billing process between a first Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN1) and a second Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN2) for a subscriber of the PLMN1 that visits the PLMN2. A method comprises establishing a smart contract between the PLMN1, the PLMN2, and a Data Clearance House (DCH). The method comprises sending a subscriber usage record, represented by a distributed ledger, of the subscriber from the PLMN2 to the DCH using a blockchain upon the subscriber having visited the PLMN2, wherein the blockchain is based on the smart contract. The method comprises sending the subscriber usage record from the DCH to the PLMN1 using the blockchain.
