Post Quantum Cryptography based Land Records Management System with Integrated GIS and Encrypted Database

The proposed project introduces a revolutionary Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC)based Land Records Management System. This system is designed to modernize landadministration by digitizing and encrypting government land records, thereby ensuringenhanced security and transparency. Utilizing cutting-edge cryptographic techniques, likeDilithium which is a lattice-based digital signature algorithm whose security is based onthe hardness of finding short vectors in lattices. The system will facilitate the creation,storage, and verification of land ownership records, transfers, inheritance and transactionswithout the need for intermediaries or physical documentation.As many countries and regions are facing challenges and opportunities related to land administration and management. Land records are often outdated, inaccurate, incomplete,or vulnerable to fraud and corruption. This can lead to disputes, conflicts, inefficiencies,and inequalities in the access and use of land resources. On the other hand, land recordsare also valuable assets that can facilitate economic development, social inclusion, environmental protection, and governance improvement.By transitioning to a digital platformsecured by PQC, the system mitigates these risks, thereby facilitating dispute resolution,promoting fair resource distribution, and supporting sustainable economic development.Incorporating Geographic Information System (GIS), the project enhances the precisionof land boundary delineation and monitoring. The implementation of Dilithium, whichis under consideration by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) forits post-quantum cryptography project, signifies a forward-thinking approach, while alsoproviding real-time updates and maintaining the confidentiality of sensitive information.In summary, the project envisions a secure, efficient, and transparent future for land recordsmanagement. By integrating advanced PQC with GIS, it lays the groundwork for a resilientinfrastructure that supports equitable land administration and effective resource utilizationin a post-quantum era
