Patent number: 12184774Abstract: The concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to time-aware blockchain staged regulatory control of Internet of Things (“IoT”) data. A federation platform can receive a registration request from an enterprise edge platform to register a blockchain identifier for publication of public data on a public blockchain. The federation platform can determine if the registration request contains any restricted data parameters. In response to determining that the registration request does not contain any restricted data parameters, the federation platform can query a security module to obtain an encryption key. The federation platform can receive the encryption key from the security module. The federation platform can store the encryption key in association with the blockchain identifier and an enterprise edge platform ID that uniquely identifies the enterprise edge platform.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2022Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignees: AT&T Global Network Services Hong Kong LTD, AT&T Mobility II LLCInventors: Winnie Chau, John Philip Mulligan, Shashi Gowda
