N2 - Cold chain logistics play an important aspect in storing, preserving and transporting of cargo which is highly sensitive to environmental parameters surrounding it. Not han-dling these medicinal products in the recommended environment either during transportation or storage can cause adverse effects such as degradation of potency of the drug, the stability of drugs and in some cases may even lead to serious consequences on the health and well being of the consumer. Once a product leaves the supplier and enters the cold supply chain, monitoring and controlling the surroundings of the shipment will be a difficult task which can be resolved by using latest technologies like Internet of Things (IoT), However, due to the resource constraints of such IoT devices, it is very easy to manipulate the data and provide falsified information by any adversary in order to disrupt the system. Hence, a robust architecture called PharmaChain 2.0, which is capable of efficiently and securely monitor and control the ambient parameters of shipments in cold chain using IoT, and a cloud architecture and IoT friendly Proof-of-Authentication consensus based blockchain technologies to increase confidence of safe consumption for end consumers.
