【Abstract】Blockchain technology is playing a major role in the process of providing security to the data of different kinds of applications. This technology is considered the verified document of every transaction. Proof of Low Infringement and Plagiarism is a consensus mechanism designed to revolutionize heavy identity, asset tracking, and academic participation. Research articles and innovations are not encouraged across the globe due to a lack of funding, overpriced publication rates (it costs an average of $1000 to publish an academic journal in the USA), no transparency in infringement data, and an overwhelming number of middlemen taking part in citation costs. To that end, we propose a new cryptosystem that incorporates a newly proposed cryptographic system to provide security for research articles while online plagiarism checking. The proposed system uses the SHA-256 hash function and AES for securing the data. In addition, an existing cryptographic algorithm called Elliptic Curve Cryptography with Diffie-Hellman (EC(DH)2) is also applied to enhance the data security level. The experimental results suggest that any attempt to plagiarize the research article that is submitted is an interruption of the instructions. The transmission of a research article is also encrypted by applying cryptographic rules and security mechanisms such that no one can access or modify the submitted research article. Even the reviewer of the research article is not able to make any changes to the article because by doing such activity, the system gives an alarm message about the violation to the administrator. The experiments are conducted to prove the efficiency and effectiveness of the cryptosystem.
