Verifying Digital Academic Credential Using Blockchain

In today's increasingly digital and global environment, traditional methods of issuing and verifying certificates are prone to fraud, loss, delays. This solution introduces a blockchain-based system for storing and protecting academic credentials, where educational institutions issue digital certificates directly onto a blockchain network based webapp, Blockchain network mean's Polygon Amoy. In which, the user will be able to have all the control related to it's credentials and not the institution, as sometimes personal information of users can get leaked by institutions which is a breach of smart contract, so this webapp will ensure full control to the users. Through the use of smart contracts, the system automates the verification process, which will be directly issued to the intended user and also will adapt paperless system which will be environment friendly. This approach not only reduces the dependency on educational institutions it will also help to save paper which is the major factor for such credentials/certificates.

Abstract

In today's increasingly digital and global environment, traditional methods of issuing and verifying certificates are prone to fraud, loss, delays. This solution introduces a blockchain-based system for storing and protecting academic credentials, where educational institutions issue digital certificates directly onto a blockchain network based webapp, Blockchain network mean's Polygon Amoy. In which, the user will be able to have all the control related to it's credentials and not the institution, as sometimes personal information of users can get leaked by institutions which is a breach of smart contract, so this webapp will ensure full control to the users. Through the use of smart contracts, the system automates the verification process, which will be directly issued to the intended user and also will adapt paperless system which will be environment friendly. This approach not only reduces the dependency on educational institutions it will also help to save paper which is the major factor for such credentials/certificates.
