Blockchain technology, which initially emerged as the driving force behind the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, is now recognized as a transformative paradigm in the fields of security an‎d decentralization. However, despite the increasing proliferation of its applications, many aspects of this technology, especially in the field of creating secure an‎d native communication infrastructures, have not yet been fully explored. This doctoral thesis, focusing on the design an‎d deployment of a comprehensive infrastructure framework called “Simorgh”, seeks to fill this gap an‎d respond to national security imperatives in cyberspace. The proposed Simorgh infrastructure is a distributed communication structure that is designed with Iran’s domestic governance considerations in mind an‎d has the potential to become a foundational platform for the development of secure an‎d decentralized systems in various fields. In order to validate this framework in practice, an electronic voting system named “Hafez” has been implemented an‎d analyzed as a complete case study, which, by utilizing the inherent features of Simorgh, ensures all the critical requirements, including security, integrity, confidentiality, an‎d non-repudiation, in an electoral process. Next, in order to demonstrate the flexibility of this infrastructure, a novel mechanism for authenticating Internet of Things (IoT) devices an‎d for secure an‎d immutable storage of their data is presented, which has significant advantages over conventional centralized systems in terms of security an‎d efficiency. In the financial application layer, the “Parsi” cryptocurrency has been designed as a national digital asset in line with the country’s economic policies based on the Simorgh architecture. To ensure the full compatibility of this cryptocurrency with the Iranian economic environment, it has been deemed necessary to use a proprietary consensus algorithm named “Hasin,” whose design an‎d comprehensive analysis will be the subject of future studies due to its inherent complexities. Overall, the findings of this research not only demonstrate the inherent potential of blockchain technology for national localization, but also provide operational an‎d secure solutions to some of the key challenges in the countryʹs communications an‎d financial sectors.
