Abstract-A blockchain is a decentralized, distributed and public digital ledger that is used to record transactions across many computers so that the record cannot be altered retroactively. Schools and institutions keep student records and certificates for future requirements such as credit transfer and verification. To ensure that documents and data is unaltered, these procedures are usually carried out manually leads to more time and effort. Converting these procedures to digital format reduces time and energy consumption but at a cost of increased security risks. Many institutions store data on a centralized database which is vulnerable to many security issues like data breaches, injection attacks, and buffer overflow attacks. Even if the server is physically damaged, it will take longer to restore, recover, and restart the damaged data. So, we propose the Blockchain-based Student Academic Record Access Control Model with Authentication. The data captured in blocks with a cryptographic hash of previous blocks provides enhanced security in blockchain technology compared to traditional databases. The Academic Record System employs three layers of blockchain to provide the highest possible degree of security.
