[Retracted] Decentralized Consensus Blockchain and IPFS-Based Data Aggregation for Efficient Data Storage Scheme

Algorithm 1

Handling secured information and blockchain logic for transaction using Elgamal approach

	Input: Text Information (Data) or Document from user end (Plain text).
	Output: Encrypted Cipher Blocks on Server End.
	Step 1: gather plain text or the data from user end
	Step 2: the string variables are generated termed Enc_Key and smart credential generated are assigned as
	Step 3: a byte variable is created for storing encrypted bytes, for instance:
	Step 4: a new object is created for performing encryption depending on the procedure of advanced encryption by Rijndael process.
	{
	}
	Step 5: the key storage space is generated by means of derived bytes earlier I n the previous step
	Step 6: the temporary encrypted data storage space is generated using derived bytes from third step and the generated key storage space by step 5
	Step 7: for storing cipher values, memory stream is created one by one for generating encrypted data storage space by step 6.
	Step 8: the encrypted data is stored in the storage space in the format of bytes.
	Step 9: Return encrypted text
	return ;
	Step 10: the query is inserted for generating the data in server end

	;
	;
	; //refer Step–9
	;
	;
	Step 11: the information is stored in server successfully
