Abstract
In the context of the rapid development of Consumer Internet of Things (CIoT), the manipulation and unauthorized distribution of multimedia content have raised serious concerns regarding copyright protection and data authenticity. Ensuring secure traceability and authenticity in complex network environments remains a major challenge. Traditional blockchain mechanisms often suffer from high latency during large-scale data queries, making them unsuitable for real-time CIoT applications. To address this, this paper proposes a high-efficiency blockchain-based multimedia data security traceability method. First, blockchain is integrated with the PROV model to guarantee operation transparency and data credibility. Second, a joint index structure comprising a fast index (using traceability positioning tables for cross-block jumps) and a multi-bucket index (using self-balancing binary trees) is designed. Experimental results demonstrate that compared to traditional blockchain and SEBDB methods, the proposed mechanism remains stable as data volume exceeds 2000 records. Specifically, the query time growth rate is significantly lower than linear scanning methods (12-18% vs. 45-62% for traditional methods), and the number of traversed records is reduced by 60-75% by avoiding full-chain traversal, verifying the method's superiority in handling high-frequency CIoT multimedia queries while providing protection against tampering and unauthorized distribution.
