The protection of sensitive information in the financial sector requires a security architecture capable of preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, auditability, and regulatory accountability across multiple institutions. Conventional centralized security models remain vulnerable to single points of failure, unauthorized access, data manipulation, and limited transparency in inter-organizational data sharing. Blockchain offers tamper-resistant records, decentralized trust, and verifiable audit trails; however, its direct implementation in financial systems is constrained by scalability limitations, smart contract vulnerabilities, privacy leakage, and conflicts between immutable ledgers and data protection principles. This study aims to develop a blockchain-based data security system for protecting sensitive financial information by integrating permissioned blockchain and Zero-Knowledge Proofs. The proposed method adopts a consortium-oriented permissioned blockchain architecture, represented by Hyperledger Fabric, to ensure controlled participation, certificate-based identity management, endorsement policies, and auditable transaction validation. Smart contracts are designed as policy-enforcement components for consent management, access authorization, data commitment, revocation, and audit logging. Zero-Knowledge Proofs are incorporated to verify customer attributes, eligibility, and access rights without disclosing raw personal or financial data. Sensitive information is stored off-chain in encrypted form, while the blockchain records only cryptographic commitments, hashes, consent states, and audit events. The expected result is a security model that improves data integrity, controlled access, privacy-preserving verification, and compliance-oriented accountability while reducing unnecessary exposure of sensitive data on-chain. The implication of this research is the provision of a technically coherent framework for financial institutions seeking to adopt blockchain securely in regulated environments, especially where data confidentiality, auditability, and privacy compliance must be achieved simultaneously.

The shift in the international political order from a unipolar to a multipolar system has created increasingly complex global security dynamics and the potential for conflicts among states. This condition requires improving international political literacy among civil society, particularly Indonesian youth, so they can critically understand and respond to geopolitical transformations. In response to this urgency, this Community Service Program (PKM) aimed to enhance students’ global issue literacy through the Foreign Policy Community of Indonesia (FPCI) Goes To School (FGTS) 5.0 program themed Conflict & Military. The activity was conducted on April 6, 2026, involving 40 eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 97 Jakarta. The implementation method combined interactive lectures with popular culture references to make the material easier for teenagers to understand. Evaluation was conducted through pre-tests and post-tests in the form of multiple-choice quizzes. The material covered the concept of United States national interests, the Board of Peace (BoP) security initiative, Realism Theory, and the conflicts involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. The evaluation results showed that students had strong understanding of popular global issues but limited comprehension of technical aspects related to international institutions, such as the role of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Therefore, future international political literacy programs should focus more on strategic and technical issues that are less familiar to the public.
