The thesis presents and compares two implementations of blockchain technology.
The comparison is based on a register of insights into personal data, as an example use case.
The register enables various institutions and companies to have better control, as well as a cleaner overview of insight into personal data of their customers from within their computer systems.
Additionally, it helps users towards compliance with the new GDPR regulation regarding personal data.
Blockchain technology is becoming increasingly popular, mainly influenced by the rise of cryptocurrencies, which were the first to implement this technology.
In the thesis we take a look into the technology, its design, properties, capabilities as well as pros and cons.
There is a more detailed focus on two main implementations, the Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric platforms, with comparison and description of our application.
