Abstract:
The rapid advancement of cloud-based storage solutions and digital backup systems has increased security concerns related to unauthorized access and data breaches. Traditional Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) mechanisms provide structured access controls but are prone to centralized vulnerabilities and insider threats. Blockchain technology offers decentralized and immutable security solutions that can complement RBAC for enhanced security. This paper proposes a novel framework that integrates blockchain with RBAC to secure backup systems. The methodology involves the use of smart contracts for access management, decentralized identity verification, and cryptographic techniques for data integrity. The results demonstrate improved access control, reduced insider threats, and increased resilience against unauthorized access. This study provides a comprehensive evaluation of the framework, including performance metrics, security analysis, and comparative studies. The proposed hybrid approach has the potential to significantly enhance the security of digital backup systems in enterprise and cloud environments.

Keywords: Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Blockchain, Backup Security, Unauthorized Access Prevention, Smart Contracts, Cryptographic Security, Decentralized Identity Management.
