Abstract:
The application of blockchain to business process collaboration enhances its credibility. However, existing data communication methods encounter issues such as compromising data reliability, blockchain traceability, and data privacy. As a result, they fail to meet the needs of standard business process collaboration between organizations. We propose a private data communication method for business process collaboration to solve these problems. This method extends the Wf-XML2.0 protocol and designs a Broker component based on the interplanetary file system and asymmetric encryption technology. Data communication is divided into three steps to ensure the privacy of business data: saving, requesting, and responding. We use the Dolev–Yao attacker model, practical cases of process collaboration, and experiments for analysis to verify the security.
