Abstract
One of the major concerns for the government in terms of security is the safety of the citizens. We have come across many cases in which the individuals have access to the ammunition without having the required license. Inadequacy in the management of weapons, especially those which remain reserved is the major contributing factor. Individuals submit counterfeit documents to some third party dealers who help them in getting a fake arms license. That’s not all, no one knows whether the individuals who use the ammunition with the fake license have any criminal background at that time. The production of such reserved deteriorating weapons is creating a huge problem leading to an unsafe environment among the citizenry. In this chapter, we lay forward a model that helps to overcome these challenges with the help of blockchain technology. In our model, we provided a simple solution on how the transfer of guns can take place between the dealer and the seller using digital signatures and a digital gun safe just like a bitcoin (BTC) wallet which stores each and every information about an individual securely and it helps us in identifying whether the person who has a weapon holds an original arms license or has a fake one and also checks whether the person has a previous criminal record on his name. Since blockchain is immutable and hackproof, this technology can be used to eliminate the above claims and improve the ownership, traceability of the weapon and keeps the records securely inside the digital safe. Although the use of blockchain technology has some constraints when a large number of records are to be stored inside the safe, it’s properties can be used to improve the current scenario.
