Currently, companies in the financial sector are widely adopting blockchain technology to address critical issues such as the verifiability of authentic documents and money laundering, among others. However, there remains a prevalence of illicit activities related to document forgery, which is a punishable offense carrying prison sentences. Document verification is a complex process, involving a myriad of challenges and burdens concerning authentication. In this paper, we present an optimized approach for certificate issuance through a blockchain-based web system, with the aim of enhancing certificate authenticity, reducing execution time, and augmenting customer satisfaction. Recently, blockchain has emerged as a promising tool for authenticating the document verification process and is viewed as a significant instrument in combating fraud and document misuse. This research zeroes in on leveraging decentralized technology to create verifiable documents, employing a specific architecture, and following the Rational Unified Process methodology. The results garnered illustrate an efficient process for issuing highly reliable certificates, thereby contributing to the deterrence of malicious use of certificates by third parties.
