Abstract
The internet of things constitutes for more and advanced opportunities paving way for a competitive advantage in numerous industrious in the prevailing and the upcoming markets. The internet of things and the technologies associated with it are not only creating alterations in the internetwork alone but also with the things that are connected to it. As the internet of things includes the generation and the analysis of the data as the important process, it finds difficulties in administering and protecting the data that are flowing from different levels. This in turn causes difficulties in the secure transmission of the information from its source to the authorized destination and the authorized person at the right time. So the above reasons bring in the capability of the block chain into the IOT, to improve the security as well as implant the transparency. The paper put forward a block chain enabled IOT for the pharmaceutical sector to elude the issue of counterfeit in the medicines.
