The invention relates to the technical field of
data element circulation, and discloses a block chain and attribute-based
encryption-based data asset right confirmation and transaction method, which comprises the following steps: S1,
data registration: a data asset owner registers data asset
metadata and an ABE access policy to a block chain; s2, generating a digital
certificate, generating a unique digital
certificate from the registered
metadata by the block chain, and binding data asset ownership; s3,
encryption storage: defining an attribute-based access strategy by a
data provider;
original data is encrypted by the ABE and then stored in the distributed storage
system; s4, access authority: the
demand side applies for
data decryption authority through the attribute private key; and S5, executing the transaction. According to the method, the data asset ownership is ensured not to be tampered through block chain evidence storage, the dispute risk is reduced, ownership transparency is realized, 'data is not out of the domain 'is realized through an ABE technology, a
demand side only decrypts part of data conforming to attributes, and privacy is better protected.
