Abstract: In a blockchain system, a user device obtains an address of a smart contract according to a transaction hash, and generates a private data hash according to business data. The user device then generates a transaction based on the private data hash and the address of the smart contract, and submits the transaction to the blockchain system to store the private data hash into the smart contract, such that confidential information of a business deal in the real world is secured. On the other hand, an authentication device generates a private data hash according to business data, obtains an address of a smart contract in the blockchain system according to a transaction hash, and accesses the smart contract via the address to determine whether the private data hash is stored in the smart contract. The authentication device approves the business data when the smart contract includes the private data hash.
