Abstract

In today's digital era, the use of physical documents has been replaced by software files for various administrative and everyday purposes. To keep up with this trend and provide a secure and efficient platform for managing documents, this thesis/project proposes a platform that utilizes hashing and IPFS technology for secure document management. The proposed system allows users to upload and store documents on a remote cloud storage server, and share them via QR codes. Upon request, the document owner can grant access to the receiver to view and download the document. The system provides two levels of security to protect user's data and documents. This proposed system can be implemented through an Android application. Overall, the proposed system provides an efficient, secure, and modern approach to document management.

Keywords
