Traditional Approaches

Protecting the confidentiality of a patient’s information in a shared care environment could become a complex task. Correct identification of users, assigning of access permissions, and resolution of conflict rise as main points of interest in providing solutions for data exchange among health care providers. Traditional approaches such as Mandatory Access Control, Discretionary Access control and Role-Based Access Control policies do not always provide a suitable solution for health care settings, especially for shared care environments. The core of this contribution consists in the description of an approach which uses attribute-based encryption to protect the confidentiality of patients’ information during the exchange of electronic health records among healthcare providers. Attribute-based encryption allows the reinforcing of access policies and reduces the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive information; it also provides a set of functionalities which are described using a case study. Attribute-based encryption provides an answer to restrictions presented by traditional approaches and facilitate the reinforcing of existing security policies over the transmitted data.

AbstractOnline data sharing has become a research hotspot while cloud computing is getting more and more popular. As a promising encryption technique to guarantee the security shared data and to realize flexible fine-grained access control, ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) has drawn wide attentions. However, there is a drawback preventing CP-ABE from being applied to cloud applications. In CP-ABE, the access structure is included in the ciphertext, and it may disclose user’s privacy. In this paper, we find a more efficient method to connect ABE with inner product encryption and adopt several techniques to ensure the expressiveness of access structure, the efficiency and security of our scheme. We are the first to present a secure, efficient fine-grained access control scheme with hidden access structure, the access structure can be expressed as AND-gates on multi-valued attributes with wildcard. We conceal the entire attribute instead of only its values in the access structure. Besides, our scheme has obvious advantages in efficiency compared with related schemes. Our scheme can make data sharing secure and efficient, which can be verified from the analysis of security and performance.

Encryption Schemes

Attribute based encryption (ABE) is a widely used technique with tremendous application in cloud computing because it provides fine-grained access control capability. Owing to this property, it is emerging as a popular technique in the area of searchable encryption where the fine-grained access control is used to determine the search capabilities of a user. But, in the searchable encryption schemes developed using ABE it is assumed that the access structure is monotonic which contains AND, OR and threshold gates. Many ABE schemes have been developed for non-monotonic access structure which supports NOT gate, but this is the first attempt to develop a searchable encryption scheme for the same. The proposed scheme results in fast search and generates secret key and search token of constant size and also the ciphertext components are quite fewer than the number of attributes involved. The proposed scheme is proven secure against chosen keyword attack (CKA) in selective security model under Decisional Bilinear Diffie-Hellman (DBDH) assumption.
