File verification database system

Abstract:

An example operation may include one or more of initiating, by a file verification device, verification of a source file or a redacted source file, executing one of a smart contract or chaincode to verify the chameleon hash signature and the auxiliary data hash signature, and providing a notification whether the verification was successful or unsuccessful. In response to initiating verification of the source file, the method further includes the file verification device receiving stored source file segments and stored auxiliary data segments, generating a chameleon hash signature, and generating an auxiliary data hash signature. In response to initiating verification of the redacted source file, the method further includes receiving stored redacted file segments, stored auxiliary data segments, and stored modified auxiliary data, generating a chameleon hash signature, and generating an auxiliary data hash signature.
