Abstract

In the current era, Blockchain Technology is blooming and growing faster. Blockchain is currently used in soft computing, agriculture, cloud network, healthcare, electronics, and electrical fields. Older technologies are upgraded to increase their reach using Distributed Cloud networks and blockchain. Implementing security for heterogeneous 5G services-based technologies of the MEC is challenging.

In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based distributed cloud security solution that uses technologies such as Digital Signature, RSA algorithm, AES encryption, and a Lookup table to improve the security of blockchain and decrease the traversal time of data in the blockchain. This proposed model is adept at solving the primary concern related to storage and confidentiality in a Distributed Cloud environment.
