Abstract - Traditional access control systems store user roles in centralized databases, making them vulnerable to hacking and insider attacks. Secure Auth uses blockchain-based Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to store user roles securely on the blockchain. Smart contracts enforce access rules, preventing unauthorized changes or privilege escalations. This ensures tamper-proof, transparent, and decentralized access control. Users can verify their roles anytime, and only authorized actions are allowed. This approach enhances security, transparency, and trust in authentication systems.

Key Words:  Access Control, Cybersecurity, RBAC, Blockchain, Smart Contracts, Unauthorized Access, Privilege Escalation, Secure Auth.
