【Abstract】Effective security has become a vital part of our daily routine, for example securing cash, jewelry, documents, and other valuables. One way is to protect these items by keeping them in a safe box. However, current safe boxes are vulnerable to a number of security attacks such as physical, repudiation, anonymously modifying, etc. In this regard, this paper presents a robust smart safe box using the blockchain solution to ensure each transaction and secure it from unauthorized access. Also, it traces back the local safe items by reading back to blockchain data transactions and protecting them from thieves by tracking the burglar with a real-time tracking location Global Positioning System (GPS) tracker and capturing a picture and video recording through the external camera. Similarly, with more security enhancement using the TensorFlow framework to analyze optical detection and identify things inside the box using an internal camera. At the same time, each transaction is stored by using Write Once and Read Many (WORM) patterns saved in local private blockchain data block logs. Finally, it uses three-way authentication mechanisms to unlock the safe box that authenticates the users, (1) face recognition, (2) fingerprint and (3) the keypad password. The performance of the proposed smart safe box is tested by a number of hardware and blockchain tests. The results reveal that the proposed smart safe box ensures safe and authenticated access to the box and records each transaction using blockchain technology. Further, the performance evaluation of the private blockchain significantly improved the integrity and safeness of the proposed smart safe box.
