LinkID

The LinkID blockchain system is an AES encryption enhanced Blockchain system for MediLink to ensure secure containment and transfer of medical records.

Contributions

The LinkID blockchain system was originally created and programmed by me as a subsystem of the MediLink project for the 2024 San Diego Big Data Hackathon.

The original repository is licensed under MIT with my name (Shuban Pal) and acts as an archive. Although MediLink is now inactive, I wish to update LinkID further. Active updates and changes will now go to this repository which is still licensed under the MIT license with my name.

All my preceding commits and contributions prior to this version can be found on the archive repository HERE
