**INTRODUCTION**

Hello, everyone! I’m **Aditya Shukla**, the leader and sole member of Team **DEFY-ERS**. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Technology from Vivekananda Global University, Jaipur, and I’m going to share about my project **LifeVault** that is a **decentralized platform** designed to securely store important documents on the **Hive Blockchain**.

I got to know about **Hive through the hackathon being conducted at NIIT University.** The event was announced in my college WhatsApp group, and the idea of participating immediately caught my attention.

**ABOUT MY PROJECT: LifeVault**

**LifeVault** empowers users to **securely store and manage important documents** using blockchain technology. With full privacy control, only the owner can access and manage their files, ensuring top-notch security. LifeVault leverages Hive Blockchain to provide **immutable, tamper-proof storage** for personal and professional documents. The platform also integrates **AI to offer smart summaries**, making document management both efficient and intuitive.

**Technologies Used**:
* Frontend: Vite, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript
* Backend: Node.js, Express
* Database: MongoDB
* File Storage: Pinata
* Blockchain Integration: dhive, hivejs, Hive Keychain

The **core features** of LifeVault:
* **Authentication and Login**: LifeVault allows users to log in through their Hive account and use platform without any additional account creation. We have implemented this feature using Hive Keychain Technology.
* **Document Storage**: LifeVault allows users to upload a wide variety of personal or professional documents—such as images, videos, certificates or any other file types directly onto the Hive Blockchain or through decentralized file storage systems like IPFS (InterPlanetary File System).

* **Security & Privacy**: Since LifeVault is decentralized and operates on the Hive Blockchain, it provides more security in comparison to the centralized systems. With decentralized networks, our data is distributed across numerous nodes making unauthorized access virtually impossible.

* **AI-Powered Summaries**: LifeVault’s AI integration allows users to automatically summarize important events, key information or critical points from uploaded documents, helping users focus on the most relevant content.

**IMPACT ON SOCIETY**

**LifeVault** can revolutionize how individuals store and protect their personal and professional documents. At the same time, it is also ensuring **privacy, security and full ownership** through decentralized technology. In a world where data breaches and privacy violations are increasingly common, LifeVault will empowers users to take control of their sensitive information.

**WINNING POTENTIAL**

My project **LifeVault** has strong winning potential because it is offering a user-friendly interface for managing documents securely. It also has **AI for summarization** and quick outputs. The aim of this project is to focus on taking back the **control** from the centralized systems and giving it back to the users.
