Standard

The standard establishes access control requirements for blockchain systems. The standard addresses the following access control attributes of the system, including but not limited to:

a) Node permissions - the permissions of block generation, block synchronization, block verification and broadcasting, and sending transactions.

b) Smart contract access permissions - interface access control, user access control, and hybrid access control.

c) User permissions - registered user permissions and unregistered permissions. The concept of role is applied to differentiate the permissions of registered users, which means permissions vary according to the role of a user.

d) Global permissions - user access to deploy smart contracts, and to read smart contracts.

This standard defines a decentralized identity and access management (IAM) framework for the Internet of Things (IoT) based on the emerging concepts such as decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and verifiable credentials (VCs). The framework addresses the integration of DIDs and VCs into the lifecycle of IoT devices as well as the decentralized IoT security services such as device authentication, data authorization and access control.

This standard provides a framework for the implementation, and interaction utilizing Web 3.0 (Web3) in healthcare and life sciences involving privacy challenges. Web 3.0 represents the next iteration of the evolution of the web and is built upon the core concepts of decentralization, openness, and greater user utility. Digital Ledger Technology (DLT) tokens, smart contracts, transactions, assets, networks, off-chain data storage and access architectural patterns, and Web3 permissioned and permission-less DLT are included in the framework.

This guide provides an open, common, and interoperable reference framework model for distributed ledger technology (DLT), such as blockchain in the energy sector. It also covers three aspects:

1) Serve as a guideline for Blockchain DLT use cases in Electrical Power industry; energy value industry chain, covering the Renewable energy industry and their renewable related sources services of generation.

2) Create guide on reference architecture framework, including interoperability, terminology, functionality, and system interfaces for blockchain DLT applications in the energy sector by building an open protocol and technology agnostic layered framework.

3) Evaluate and provide guidelines on scalability, performance, security, and interoperability through evaluation of consensus algorithm, smart contracts, and type of blockchain DLT implementation, etc. for the Energy sector.

The data fields, types, and formats related to digital assets to improve digital asset identification efficiency are defined by this standard. Moreover, guidance for blockchain-based digital asset identification is provided by the definition and description of methods and data structures in this standard.

This standard defines an exchange model for blockchain-based digital assets. The exchange model includes operational processes, data security and information security requirements, and transaction rules. The standard also defines the general technical requirements of the exchange model and describes the entity functions in the exchange model.

The surging needs for the Internet of Things (IoT) are dramatically shifting the network structure and challenging the traditional perimeter security paradigm. To establish secure and trustworthy interoperability among billions of heterogeneous interconnected devices, there is a need for standards defining a common framework. This standard defines a blockchain-based Zero-Trust access control framework and gives a typical implementation model and deployment variations, addressing general security and trust in IoT applications with the inspiration of the emerging Zero-Trust paradigm and blockchain technology. The leverage of blockchain and Zero-Trust could provide reliable interactions among people, things, and applications in the presence of failures and attacks, and improve an IoT system's overall information technology security posture.

Technical framework, application processes and technical requirements for carbon trading applications based on blockchain, including functions, access, interface, security, and carbon consumption voucher coding are described in this standard.

This standard is IEEE Standard for Application Interface Specification for Blockchain Systems. It defines an application programming interface (API) collection and data transmission format between the chain layer and the application layer in a blockchain system and standardizes the string, encoding, and request-response format of the API.

This standard defines a framework of service capability which includes the technology, human resource and qualifications of the entity and provides a set of indicators for the evaluation of service capability. It also proposes evaluation methods for the blockchain industry.

This standard defines definitions, types, test specifications, test methods and test processes for blockchain systems. Test contents are included for each type of test. This standard also defines the test architecture of blockchain systems, including but not limited to functional testing, performance testing, security testing, stability testing, and compliance testing.

For permissioned and permission-less blockchains, this standard specifies a governance structure, governance tools and methods. Furthermore, the standard defines a governance structure and its principles as well as a life cycle management and compliance system.
