Implementation of Dropshipping Using Blockchain
Abstract: This research introduces a novel approach to dropshipping via integration of blockchain technology and smart contracts. Dropshipping is a business model where retailers avoid stocking products by directly fulfilling orders from wholesalers, and face challenges related to inventory management, understocking, overstocking, and financial risks attached. This also focuses on issues related to tampering of data and mishandling of products during the exit transits. Our study addresses these challenges by leveraging …

A Study on Securing the Local Area Network with the Immutable Trust of Blockchain
Abstract: The contemporary Local Area Network (LAN) is the digital circulatory system of the modern enterprise, a vital yet perilously vulnerable ecosystem. Traditional security paradigms, built upon centralized authority models – firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and privileged administrators – increasingly resemble medieval castles in an age of artillery. They present a brittle single point of failure: compromise the center, and the entire kingdom falls. This paper proposes a radical architectural shift, …
