USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY, CRYPTOCERTIFY VERIFIES AND

AUTHENTICATES CERTIFICATES.

Domain – Block Chain


ABSTRACT
In the ever-evolving world of digital certification, CryptoCertify offers a novel
approach to certificate validation and verification. CryptoCertify hopes to increase
security and utility by integrating Solidity on the Polygon blockchain and integrating it
easily with Metamask and IPFS. Since centralisation and fraud are issues with standard
certificate validation techniques, a decentralised and resilient alternative is needed.
Smart contracts written in Solidity and implemented using Metamask greatly lower the
dangers associated with phoney certificates by creating an irreversible and trustless
infrastructure. IPFS and the Polygon blockchain securely store the certificate data,
creating a time-stamped, cryptographically secure distributed ledger. Stakeholders may
independently validate certificates with Metamask, increasing the transparency of the
validation process. This study adds to the expanding corpus of research on secure
digital certification techniques by combining blockchain, IPFS, Metamask, and
decentralisation. It also provides a flexible, scalable, and fraud-proof solution for future
certificate validation and authentication.
Existing System
According to various researches about one million graduates passing out each year,
the certificate issuing authorities are seems to be compromised for the security credentials of
student data. Due to the lack of effective anti forge mechanism, events that cause the
graduation certificate to be forged often get noticed.
Disadvantage
 Transcripts and graduation certificates include private information that should not be
readily available to third parties.
 In adequate security, misplaced documents, or improper certificate use.
 In certain cases, students may provide a phoney certificate, making it challenging to
identify them.
Proposed System

Through a shared interface, our solution is being suggested to issue, store, and retrieve
university credentials. With consent from the student and the organisation holding the
credentials, businesses can access legitimate student certifications via this site. After
appropriate confirmation, the issued certificates are first scanned and uploaded to the site.
The student credentials and the certificates are kept on different servers. The certificate
hashes are kept in a block chain. A block chain-like comb structure has been used to change a
few certificates as necessary. After verifying it with the block chain, a business that wants a
certificate from the organisation obtains it. A fresh certificate is issued and the system is
vulnerable if the hashes don't match. If not, the school sends the student a request after
hashing the certificate using its private key. The certificate is given to the organisation after
being hashed once again using the student's private key upon acceptance of the request. The
organisation maintains authenticity and validates the transaction using the public keys of both
entities. Duplicate verification at several organisations is no longer necessary as a result.
Private key cryptography is another way to ensure confidentiality. The database that holds all
of the necessary certificates and hashes is called Ledger.

Advantage
 The user is included in each authentication procedure through the use of multi-sign
capabilities.
 The certificate is given to the organisation after being hashed once again using the
individual's authentication.
