description Data security and privacy protection are critical challenges that constrain the advancement of edge computing. Similarly, blockchain technology faces constraints in addressing security issues linked with edge computing due to its scalability limitations. To tackle these challenges and promote the development of blockchain technology, this paper presents a scheme that enhances privacy data protection in blockchain smart contracts using edge computing and a master-slave multichain architecture. Firstly, we propose a master-slave multichain architecture based on the traditional single chain and integrate it with a three-layer edge computing structure to address security issues on the edge side. We also design a signature authentication scheme utilizing ECC integrated with blockchain encryption technology. Secondly, we incorporate the role-based access control (RBAC) model with smart contracts to finely divide user privileges, construct an interdomain role-based access control (ID-RBAC) model, and provide detailed access authentication process designs for both within and between domains. Finally, experimental results demonstrate that our proposed scheme can effectively resist various attacks, significantly improve algorithm efficiency, and maintain a system overhead of less than 160 p, with a maximum transaction throughput of nearly 310 tx/s.
