Abstract With the improvement of technology and use of the emerging technologies, the evolution of Smart Cities has become smoother. In a smart city environment the automation strategy is based on the deployed IoT devices that stream big data for the betterment of the services. But while doing this, the security of the data is becoming a major concern. In order to monitor daily to daily activities of the users, they are compromising their privacy rights. The Blockchain Technology has emerged as the most secured distributed Peer to Peer Network. In this chapter, we present an approach to manage our online identities using highly secured blockchain technology. The chapter deals with privacy and soverignity of the user identities along with ensuring their security so that identities can’t be misused. On the other hand the approach ensures the transparency and control of the user’s identity. In the result analysis the chapter presents the output of the functions depicting the flow of the application. We discuss the architecture integrating blockchain and accordingly we also discuss the related challenges and future work. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.
