Records have evolved over time, initially we had manual paper-based records which were difficult to protect, synchronize and verify because of the manual efforts required, Computers brought automation, but digital records are so easy to copy/manipulate and hence still vulnerable to manipulation. Blockchain technology promises the perfect blend of high availability yet 100% tamperproof especially in case of high value data. As we have seen so far, the critical aspects when dealing with high value or sensitive data are Immutability, Trusted Verification, Consent, Security, and Privacy. Zebi Blockchain solution will address these aspects while enabling legitimate commercial data sharing activity. Providing complete ownership and control of their data to individuals is at the heart of Zebi solution. Every transaction related to people sensitive data would go through explicit and granular consent mechanism with the convenience of Mobile or Web App
Bird’s-eye view of the solution Zebi solution ecosystem consists of 2 interconnected proprietary Components Zebi Chain™ and Zebi Data Gateway, to bring • Individuals (Who’s data is being protected), • Data providers (Who generate and store their data), and • Data Requestors (Who need to use/validate this data of individual as part of their business process) on a common platform and enable secure, seamless and consent based exchange of information among them.
Zebi Chain™ is a proprietary light weight satellite application installed at various Data Providers’ premises to provide immutability using Blockchain based ledger. The number of nodes in the private Blockchain is configurable and integrates with Ethereum public Blockchain for 100% tamperproof protection. Zebi Data Gateway connects Zebi Chain™ installations and on-board individuals and data requestors with a simple registration process. It can facilitate instant data exchange through DaaS APIs by connecting to Zebi Chain™ instances and taking individual consent wherever appropriate. Zebi is starting out with the model of implementing Zebi Chain™ on-premise software at data providers, to connect multiple data sources to Zebi Data Gateway. Zebi Chain™ has already been selected as the solution of choice by one of India’s largest state governments to safeguard their land assets 6 . We see a healthy pipeline of prospects across India. As we scale rapidly and on-board more data providers, the value proposition of Zebi Data Gateway to data requestors increases exponentially. Let’s look at these components in more detail: Zebi Chain™ Zebi Chain™ is key component of Zebi Blockchain Solution and can be installed on the premises of Data providers such as Universities, Education Boards, Enterprises or Government Departments who generate, issue, update and facilitate data required by data requestors.

It’s a very light weight application which can be installed and set-up quickly and has following key features:
• Blockchain based immutability for access and updates on records of documents
• A single node application or a private permissioned blockchain between a group of data owners
• Facilitates seamless DaaS API based data exchange process
• Eliminates need for manual effort required to attend data requests and manual checking of records • Enables data exchange without any human intervention, hence doesn’t leave any scope for manipulation or copying of sensitive information by unscrupulous insiders
• Hash of private data is stored on public blockchain giving superior tamper proof and other benefits such as publishing of hash on 25,000 nodes across the globe and zero downtimes
• All data creation and changes are accompanied with digital signatures of the individual performing such updates on Zebi Chain Records which will be protected:
• Property Records
• Educational Records
• Employee Records
• Healthcare Records
• High Value Transactions
• Utility Records
Zebi Data Gateway:
Zebi Data Gateway connects with Zebi Chain™ installations done at data providers premises. It allows individuals and data requestors to register with a simple registration process to bring all of them together on a common platform and facilitate secure and seamless data exchange through blockchain powered DaaS APIs.
A registered requestor can submit a data request by filling in relevant details including details of individual and data provider involved, and Zebi Data Gateway shall validate and connect to respective individual to get his/her consent, upon receipt of individuals consent, Zebi Data Gateway shall route the information to respective data provider’s Zebi Chain™ application through DaaS APIs, and pass on responses received to Data Requestor instantly. Every part of this process shall be completely automated and hence enables true paperless exchange of information. Moreover, all communications and transactions shall be recorded on immutable blockchain based audit trails.
The Zebi Data Gateway module is a blockchain system driven by Smart Contracts with no human intervention. Though raw data is not saved in Zebi Data Gateway system, following are stored on blockchain for each data access/exchange cycle:
• Who requested for which subject’s information when
• When was the subject’s consent requested and granted/denied for this data sharing
• What data of the subject was accessed from which data provider.
• Who received/paid what monetization from this data access
Storage on blockchain ensures immutable record of all the above leading to accountability and transparency.
The smart contract also enforces consent based sharing of data and computation of the money earned owed by each player across the cycle and transfers Zebi Coin tokens across respective accounts as part of the same cycle
Smart contracts ensure that data exchange occurs only with consent and that all stake holder receive their deserved share of the data monetization.
How Zebi Data Ecosystem will transform Industries Industries which will be transformed with scope for complete business automation:
• Protection and Verification of Land Registry and other high value records
• Consumer Lending
• Credit Scoring
• Direct Marketing
• Corporate Recruitment
