        abstract = {The increasing demand for secure data storage necessitates innovative solutions that ensure integrity, confidentiality, and accessibility. This paper presents a hardware-based secure file storage system leveraging blockchain technology to enhance data security and eliminate reliance on centralized storage. 
The proposed system integrates Web3, IPFS (Interplanetary File System), and Ethereum smart contracts to provide decentralized, immutable, and tamper-resistant file storage. The research explores challenges associated with traditional storage solutions, such as data breaches and unauthorized access, and proposes a novel architecture utilizing hardware for enhanced security and performance. Experimental results indicate significant improvements in data integrity, resistance to cyber threats, and efficient retrieval processes. The findings contribute to the growing field of decentralized secure storage and provide a foundation for future advancements in blockchain-based hardware security systems.},
