Abstract
At present, the traditional blockchain for data storage and retrieval
reflects the characteristics of slow data uploading speed, high cost, and
transparency, and there are a lot of corresponding problems, such as not supporting
private data storage, large data operation costs, and not supporting Data field query.
This paper proposes a method of data encryption storage and retrieval based on
the IOTA distributed ledger, combined with the fast transaction processing speed
and zero-value transactions of the IOTA blockchain, through the Masked
Authenticated Messaging technology, so that the data is encrypted in the data
stream. The form is stored in the distributed ledger, quickly retrieved through the
field index mechanism established by the data form, and the data operation is
carried out on the chain. Experimental results show that this system has high
storage, encryption and retrieval performance, and good practicability.
