A Data Sharing Model for Blockchain Trusted Sensor Leveraging Mimic Hash Mechanism
Open accessAbstract
Blockchain, as a distributed trust database, has been widely applied in the field of trustworthy sharing of Internet of Things (IoT) sensor data. A single hash mechanism has achieved, to some extent, the trustworthy on-chain storage of blockchain sensor data, that is, the consistency of data on and off the chain. However, it still faces potential security risks such as collision attacks, short password attacks, and rainbow table attacks. To address this issue, this paper proposes a resiliently secure blockchain sensor data trustworthy sharing model based on a mimic hash mechanism. Specifically, in response to the security risks that may arise from the single hash mechanism, this study innovatively introduces a mimic hash mechanism and proposes two methods for constructing mimic hashes based on Verifiable Random Function (VRF) and Cyber Mimic Defense (CMD) in dedicated Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and open public networks, respectively. Theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate that this model effectively solves the problem of trustworthy on-chain storage of sensor data in edge computing environments, enhancing the trustworthiness and security of the data on the chain.

The cybersecurity landscape of the railway sector is defined by the coexistence of IT, OT, and sensor networks-each governed by different architectures, standards, and life cycles.
“The cybersecurity landscape of the railway sector is defined by the coexistence of information technology (IT), operational technology (OT), and sensor networks—each governed by different architectures, standards, and life cycles [6,7,15,16,17].”
From Sensor-Based Cyber Risk Management in Railway Infrastructure Under the NIS2 Directive (2025) · cites this paper as [17]
Section 4.2 (Network Deployment) describes a wireless sensor network alongside edge and cloud networks, but does not discuss railway cybersecurity or the coexistence of IT, OT, and sensor networks with different standards and life cycles. Searches for railway IT/OT infrastructure and those distinctions found no passage addressing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.75)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
