TDRB: An Efficient Tamper-Proof Detection Middleware for Relational Database Based on Blockchain Technology

The relational database has become one of the mainstream tools for data storage and management. However, there are two main types of threats to relational databases: external attacks and internal tampering threats. In this paper, we focus on the internal tampering threats and propose a tamper-proof...

description The relational database has become one of the mainstream tools for data storage and management. However, there are two main types of threats to relational databases: external attacks and internal tampering threats. In this paper, we focus on the internal tampering threats and propose a tamper-proof detection middleware named TDRB to provide efficient tamper-proof detection for relational databases. Within the TDRB middleware framework, raw data is still stored and queried from the relational database, while the hash digest of the critical data in the relational database is synchronously migrated to the blockchain for tamper detection. Based on this method, we leverage blockchain’s immutability to detect data tamper and maintain the advanced features of relational databases to better support ease of data persistence, complex queries, and large storage capacity. We also propose a performance improvement mechanism that involves connecting the blockchain and relational database to improve throughput and mitigate performance impact.
