        abstract = {Counterfeiting has a huge impact on businesses, consumers, and public safety. This paper explores the merging of the IPFS with the SHA-256 cryptography algorithm to eliminate counterfeit products. This methodology involves methods like secures data storage using the block chain and authenticates products for consumers, allowing them to detect frauds and build trust with the companies. The research illustrates that the proposed method increases the product information traceability and enhances the consumers’ trust in the products. The integration of the IPFS and SHA-256 with the QR technology offers a safe and user-friendly product authentication platform, which is an essential tool in eliminating counterfeiting.},
