    GenShare: A Blockchain-Based Genomic Data Sharing Platform
    (Association for Computing Machinery, 2026-01-27) Dedeturk, B.A.; Soran, A.; Bakir-Güngör, B.
    Every day, hundreds of gigabytes of data are produced due to the exponential growth of next-generation sequencing and omics technologies. By combining omics data with other data types, such as electronic health record data, panomics research is actively attempting to uncover novel and potentially useful biomarkers. For the effective analysis of high-throughput-derived omics data, it is imperative to establish robust and reliable platforms that prioritize ethical considerations while effectively managing privacy, ownership concerns, and the responsible sharing of data. The GenShare model was proposed to provide an efficient platform that fits these needs. GenShare is a hybrid platform that utilizes blockchain technology. Paillier’s homomorphic encryption scheme in tandem with Intel Software Guard Extension (SGX) serves to enable the sharing of genomic data, execution of count queries, and statistical analysis of genomic data while preserving privacy and avoiding compromise of sensitive information. The objective of this paradigm is to confront security and privacy concerns through the integration of homomorphic encryption and SGX, addressing additional challenges associated with Hyperledger Fabric and Ethereum. In pursuit of this objective, the implementation of the system involved establishing the Hyperledger Fabric network, with various workloads employed to assess the network’s efficiency. Consequently, it was hypothesized that the new GenShare model would enhance the data collection and dissemination cycle and serve as a proficient platform catering to the needs of its users. © 2026 Copyright held by the owner/author(s).

    Aguhyper: A Hyperledger-Based Electronic Health Record Management Framework
    (PeerJ Inc, 2024-05-22) Dedeturk, Beyhan Adanur; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    The increasing importance of healthcare records, particularly given the emergence of new diseases, emphasizes the need for secure electronic storage and dissemination. With these records dispersed across diverse healthcare entities, their physical maintenance proves to be excessively time-consuming. The prevalent management of electronic healthcare records (EHRs) presents inherent security vulnerabilities, including susceptibility to attacks and potential breaches orchestrated by malicious actors. To tackle these challenges, this article introduces AguHyper, a secure storage and sharing solution for EHRs built on a permissioned blockchain framework. AguHyper utilizes Hyperledger Fabric and the InterPlanetary Distributed File System (IPFS). Hyperledger Fabric establishes the blockchain network, while IPFS manages the off -chain storage of encrypted data, with hash values securely stored within the blockchain. Focusing on security, privacy, scalability, and data integrity, AguHyper ' s decentralized architecture eliminates single points of failure and ensures transparency for all network participants. The study develops a prototype to address gaps identi fi ed in prior research, providing insights into blockchain technology applications in healthcare. Detailed analyses of system architecture, AguHyper ' s implementation con fi gurations, and performance assessments with diverse datasets are provided. The experimental setup incorporates CouchDB and the Raft consensus mechanism, enabling a thorough comparison of system performance against existing studies in terms of throughput and latency. This contributes signi fi cantly to a comprehensive evaluation of the proposed solution and offers a unique perspective on existing literature in the fi eld.
