  • Publication number: 20230254155
    Abstract: A registration terminal according to the present embodiment is connectable to a first distributed ledger network and a second distributed ledger network. The registration terminal includes a registration unit, a first control unit, and a second control unit. The registration unit registers a file in an external storage service. The first control unit generates a registration transaction including a file identifier assigned to the file by the storage service and a verification key, and transmits the registration transaction to the first distributed ledger network. The second control unit generates a token transaction related to generation of a token and including a signature object message including the file identifier and a signature value obtained by digitally signing the signature object message with a signature key, and transmits the token transaction to the second distributed ledger network.

  • Publication number: 20230232222
    Abstract: A user terminal according to the present embodiment is a user terminal connectable to a first distributed ledger network and a second distributed ledger network, and includes a generation unit, a first control unit, and a second control unit. The generation unit generates a decentralized identifier related to a user using a verification key. The first control unit generates a registration transaction including the verification key and the decentralized identifier, and transmits the registration transaction to the first distributed ledger network. The second control unit generates a token transaction related to issuance of a token, the token transaction including data of the user and the decentralized identifier, and transmits the token transaction to the second distributed ledger network.

  • Publication number: 20230004665
    Abstract: Upon receiving a usage request that includes a file identifier and a version identifier from a user terminal 20, a control server 10 transmits a file request that is based on the usage request to a file management system, and transmits a permission information request that is based on the usage request to a distributed ledger system. Upon receiving the file request, the file management system acquires the file that corresponds to the combination of the file identifier and the version identifier and transmits the file to the control server 10. Upon receiving the permission information request, the distributed ledger system acquires permission information that corresponds to the combination of the file identifier and the version identifier from a distributed ledger, and transmits the permission information to the control server 10. The control server 10 transmits the file to the user terminal 20 if the user of the user terminal has viewing permission based on the permission information.
