Managing and exchanging sensitive information securely is a paramount concern
for the scientific and cybersecurity community. The increasing reliance on
computing workflows and digital data transactions requires ensuring that
sensitive information is protected from unauthorized access, tampering, or
misuse. This research paper presents a comparative analysis of three novel
approaches for authenticating and securing access to scientific data:
SciTokens, Verifiable Credentials, and Smart Contracts. The aim of this study
is to investigate the strengths and weaknesses of each approach from …
