Traditional centralized systems often fail to prevent fraud and ensure data integrity, especially as cyber threats grow more complex. This paper proposes a blockchain-based framework enhanced with artificial intelligence to address these limitations. Blockchain provides secure, tamper-proof storage and smart contract–based access control, while AI enables realtime anomaly detection by analyzing behavioral patterns. The system is built using Ethereum smart contracts and machine learning models, with a modular architecture connecting frontend, backend, and AI components. Evaluation shows over 92% accuracy in fraud detection, efficient response times, and reliable audit trails. The approach proves scalable and suitable for sensitive sectors such as healthcare and finance, offering a secure, intelligent, and decentralized solution for modern data protection
