| Summary: | Although data on the blockchain cannot be tampered with, malicious access by insiders can also lead to data leakage. Access records of block are an important basis for tracing the source of data breaches; however, access records themselves may be tampered with. Therefore, it is important to study how to protect the block access records. So far, the protection of block access records has not received much attention. To make block access records a protected data resource as well, this paper proposes a storage mechanism of data access record on consortium chain based on master-slave blocks. In this mechanism, the master block is used to store data resources, and the slave block of the master block is used to store access records of the master block. This method ensures that the slave block has the security characteristics of the single chain block, making the access record traceable and immutable. The storage mechanism's viability is confirmed by real-world experimentation. The proposed mechanism outperforms the single chain in terms of data query performance, according to the testing results on public data sets. © 2024 The Authors
