WH AT I S
BLOCKCHAIN?

Blockchain is a distributed ledger technology in which transactions are immutably

recorded across a peer to peer network. They use cryptographic trust and
assurance mechanisms.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
AND
OBJECTIVE
TECHNOLOGY USED IN CERTIFICATE CHAIN
Certificate Chain has been established using the Blockchain Technology
to record the educational certificates of various boards, by linking them
like a chain. Certificate Chain records the certificates in distributed
manner in multiple locations. Certificates in this chain are secured,
tamper proof and immutable. Attempt to tamper the data is not
possible as all the distributed locations need to be updated as per the
agreement to synchronies the data between them.
USER OF CERTIFICATE CHAIN

Certificate Chain provides the mechanism for the educational institutes and
companies to verify online the details of the claims of the applicants, who
applies for the higher education or job. It also helps in counseling process, by
integrating the systems with plug-in interfaces. This certificate chain aims to
provide the educational certificate details of various boards and universities
in coming days. Thus, eliminating the need to depend upon the third party to
carry out the verification. It also drastically saves the time for verification and
promotes the paperless verification.

FEATURES OF CERTIFICATE CHAIN
Certificate Chain records the certificates in the shared/distributed manner with all the
participating stakeholders. The certificates are recorded in the chain based on the consensus
between the stakeholders. This eliminates the need for dependency on the third party. The
certificates are linked and stored with cryptographic security so that they are immutable and
traceable. The linking of the blocks in the blockchain ensures that they cannot be tampered
with. The certificates are trustable as they can be verified across the participating
stakeholders.

THE BENEFITS OF CERTIFICATE CHAIN
 
Certificate Chain provides the trustable, immutable and traceable
certificates. It can be used by the various educational institutes
for admission for higher studies and companies for job offers. It
can also be used for the online counseling by the institutes. The
financial institutes can also use this system for sanctioning of
educational loans and other loans based on the qualification of the
applicants.
