摘要

Blockchain technology has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing the security and integrity of various applications, including identity management systems. This research paper presents the design and implementation of an Identity Management System (IMS) using the Solidity programming language and the Ethereum blockchain platform. The IMS allows users to register and manage their identities in a secure and decentralized manner. The system employs a struct-based data structure to store user identity information, including name, email, age, and verification status. The functionalities of registering an identity, verifying an identity, and retrieving identity information are implemented as smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain. The paper discusses the advantages of using blockchain technology for identity management, such as immutability, transparency, and enhanced security. It also explores the potential applications of the IMS in sectors like finance, healthcare, and e-commerce. The research findings demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of blockchain-based identity management systems in mitigating identity fraud and unauthorized access. Future research directions and challenges for scaling and interoperability are also discussed, highlighting the need for standardization and integration with existing identity frameworks. The IMS serves as a foundation for further research and development in the field of blockchain-based identity management, paving the way for more secure and user-centric digital identities in the era of decentralized systems.
