Abstract :

Maintaining The Integrity And Authenticity Of Crime Evidence Is Critical For Effective Law Enforcement And Judicial Processes. Traditional Evidence Management Systems Are Prone To Tampering, Loss, Unauthorized Access, And Lack Of Transparency, Which Can Compromise Investigations And Trials. This Research Proposes A Secure Evidence Recording And Tracking System Leveraging Blockchain Technology To Ensure Immutability, Traceability, And Tamper-proof Storage Of Crime-related Data. Each Piece Of Evidence Is Digitally Recorded On A Blockchain Ledger With A Unique Cryptographic Hash, Enabling Real-time Tracking And Verification By Authorized Personnel While Preventing Unauthorized Modifications. Smart Contracts Automate Access Permissions And Logging Of Evidence Handling Events, Providing A Transparent Audit Trail Throughout The Evidence Lifecycle. Experimental Analysis Demonstrates That The Proposed System Enhances Security, Accountability, And Reliability Compared To Conventional Methods, While Also Reducing Manual Record-keeping Errors. This Approach Provides A Robust Framework For Law Enforcement Agencies To Manage Evidence Efficiently, Strengthening The Legal Process And Public Trust. Keywords: Blockchain Technology, Crime Evidence Management, Tamper-Proof Storage, Smart Contracts, Digital Forensics, Evidence Tracking, Security, Transparency.
