In this case, the plurality of institutions 120 may be, for example, certified medical institutions such as disaster relief facilities, emergency and relief vehicles, hospitals, and health centers.

The personal information of the user 130 may be distributed and stored in a plurality of blocks on the blockchain network 110. In one example, distributed storage of personal information may be performed by at least one system of a plurality of authorized institutions 120. In this case, each of the blocks containing the distributed personal information may include any one of some of the distributed personal information, the personal information encrypted with the private key of the user 130, or a hash value for the encrypted personal information. In other words, blocks of the blockchain including distributed personal information of the user 130 may be identified through either encrypted personal information or a hash value. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, it is assumed that blocks including distributed personal information of the user 130 are identified through a hash value. In this case, the personal identification device 140 of the user 130 may store the above-described hash value in the storage as shown in FIG. 1.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the hash value is used. However, the encrypted personal information (or at least part of the encrypted personal information) may be used to identify blocks in which personal information is distributed and stored. If the encrypted personal information is information that can uniquely identify the distributed and stored blocks with respect to the user 130, the encrypted personal information may be utilized even if the hash value or the encrypted personal information is not used.

In addition, although the embodiment of FIG. 1 illustrates a process of acquiring personal information of the user 130 in a medical institution in an emergency situation, the user 130 is automatically provided when the user 130 visits, such as a financial institution or a government administrative agency. Any institution that can obtain relevant information can be used without restriction. However, the consent of the user 130 for distributed storage and utilization in the blockchain network for the user 130 related information needs to be prioritized.

In addition, a smart contract registered on the blockchain network may enable various processing through the personal information of the user 130 (in the embodiment of FIG. 1, personal identification information and / or personal medical information). . For example, in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the system of institution 1 150 uses the personal information, the personal medical information, and the emergency relief for the user 130 using a smart contract registered in the blockchain network. The processing of related compensation and health claims can be handled automatically. As another example, the system of the institution 1 150 may use a user (eg, personal information, personal medical information, medical records generated through medical care for the user 130, and a smart contract registered with the blockchain network). 130 may also automatically handle the processing of claims for insurance insured. As another example, the system of institution 1 150 may recommend a personalized insurance product to the user 130 based on personal information, personal medical information and medical records in the system of the institution associated with the information requesting device.
