Development of a Decentralized Academic Records Management Platform Using Smart Contracts and National Digital Infrastructures

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Managing academic records securely and efficiently is a critical challenge in education.Traditional systems are vulnerable to data tampering, credential fraud, and administrative inefficiencies.Blockchain technology, combined with government-backed digital storage solutions like DigiLocker and frameworks like the Academic Bank of Credits (ABC), offers a robust solution for secure academic records management.Blockchain ensures immutability, transparency, and decentralization, reducing the risk of credential forgery while enabling seamless verification.DigiLocker, a digital document storage platform, can be integrated with blockchain to provide students with tamper-proof academic certificates, ensuring authenticity and accessibility.Similarly, the ABC framework, which facilitates credit transfer and lifelong learning, can leverage blockchain to maintain a transparent and interoperable academic ledger.This paper explores the implementation of blockchain in conjunction with DigiLocker and ABC, highlighting its potential to revolutionize record-keeping, enhance academic mobility, and streamline credential verification processes.
