Abstract

Data integrity preservation is a tiring but critical task in applications, especially in Android applications. This study focuses on integration of blockchain technology with traditional database as a dual data storage and incorporating it with strong hashing technique, the SHA-256. This can bring a promising development in ensuring tamperproof applications across various domains like healthcare, supply chain management and finance. Various experimental case studies were conducted to evaluate the efficiency of the system which gave a better response time of 72ms, for retrieving user data from dual storage, calculating hash of user records and comparing the hash to evaluate the integrity of the data. The research opens a new pathway for combining traditional systems with modern data systems like blockchain to bring a revolution in the cybersecurity domain.
