MUMBAI, India, Jan. 7 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511104145 A) filed by Manipal University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on Oct. 29, 2025, for 'a blockchain-enabled secure data transmission framework for iot ecosystems.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Umashankar Rawat.

The application for the patent was published on Dec. 12, under issue no. 50/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a blockchain-enabled secure data transmission framework for Internet of Things (IoT) networks, designed to overcome key security and reliability limitations of conventional architectures. The present protocol comprises a distributed ledger technology (DLT) to ensure immutable and tamper-proof data storage, along with cryptographic hashing for data integrity verification, a consensus mechanism establishes mutual trust among IoT nodes, eliminating the risks associated with centralized control or single points of failure, and a lightweight encryption algorithm is incorporated to provide efficient data protection for low-power IoT devices without compromising performance. Smart contracts dynamically manage device authentication, access control, and data-sharing policies. The present framework ensures end-to-end data confidentiality, scalability, and fault tolerance, making it particularly suited for deployment in smart city infrastructure, healthcare monitoring systems, and industrial automation networks."
