| Academic credential fraud is a pervasive issue with significant implications for educational institutions, employers, and society as a whole. The centralized nature of traditional academic verification systems makes them vulnerable to inefficiencies, corruption, and forgery, highlighting the need for a more secure and transparent solution. Blockchain technology provides a decentralized, tamper-proof framework for managing digital credentials, ensuring authenticity and integrity without intermediaries. This research proposes EduVeriChain, a blockchain-based system for securely issuing, verifying, and managing academic credentials. Utilizing smart contracts, decentralized storage via the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), and robust encryption, EduVeriChain ensures the transparency, security, and immutability of academic records. The system’s Credential Revocation Authority (CRA) and Credential Status Enforcer (CSE) provide automated and secure revocation, further enhancing trust. Performance evaluation reveals that EduVeriChain achieves high throughput, low latency, and predictable costs, making it a scalable and practical solution for academic credential verification. By providing a decentralized, secure, and efficient framework, EduVeriChain aims to mitigate pervasive document fraud and promote integrity in academic credential management. | ||
