Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing data element stored in a blockchain network. One of the methods includes receiving a request from a client computing device to store a data element into the blockchain network by a blockchain data element processing server. The blockchain data element processing server determines whether the client computing device is authorized to store the data element into the blockchain network and whether the data element is a sensitive data element. If the client computing device is authorized to store the data element into the blockchain network and the data element is not a sensitive data element, the blockchain data element processing server stores the data element that is encrypted using an encryption algorithm into the blockchain network.
