An Secure Information Security Provenance Model for Controlling Spurious Drugs in Distributed Environment

Arun.R | Balaji.P | Vinod.D

Abstract: The objective of the work is to propose a distributed secure provenance system to gauge the trustworthiness of the drugs amidst spurious and counterfeit drugs. The distributed secure model has been implemented to share information provenance procedures in a health care industry. There are a number of Drug and Cosmetic Acts in the country for the control of illicit drugs, but more than 33 % of the drugs are not genuine which necessitates a distributed provenance system with a high degree of data security. The secure provenance model addresses minimum loss of privacy of the pharmaceutical manufacturing companies so as to enhance the trustworthiness of the product and also the people. The model is implemented as a mobile deployment model with secured provenance against possible attacks.
