Attribute-based encryption (ABE) scheme is more and more widely used in the cloud storage, which can achieve fine-grained access control. However, it is an important challenge to solve dynamic user and attribute revocation in the original scheme. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a ciphertext-policy ABE (CP-ABE) scheme which can achieve attribute level user attribution. In this scheme, if some attribute is revoked, then the ciphertext corresponding to this attribute will be updated so that only the individuals whose attributes meet the access control policy and have not been revoked will be able to carry out the key updating and decrypt the ciphertext successfully. This scheme is proved selective-structure secure based on the q-Parallel Bilinear Diffie-Hellman Exponent (BDHE) assumption in the standard model. Finally, the performance analysis and experimental verification have been carried out in this paper, and the experimental results show that, compared with the existing revocation schemes, although our scheme increases the computational load of storage service provider (CSP) in order to achieve the attribute revocation, it does not need the participation of attribute authority (AA), which reduces the computational load of AA. Moreover, the user does not need any additional parameters to achieve the attribute revocation except for the private key, thus saving the storage space greatly.

Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE), especially large universe CP-ABE that is not bounded with the attribute set, is getting more and more extensive application in the cloud storage. However, there exists an important challenge in original large universe CP-ABE, namely dynamic user and attribute revocation. In this paper, we propose a large universe CP-ABE with efficient attribute level user revocation, namely the revocation to an attribute of some user cannot influence the common access of other legitimate attributes. To achieve the revocation, we divide the master key into two parts: delegation key and secret key, which are sent to the cloud provider and user separately. Note that, our scheme is proved selectively secure in the standard model under "q-type" assumption. Finally, the performance analysis and experimental verification have been carried out in this paper, and the experimental results show that, compared with the existing revocation schemes, although our scheme increases the computational load of storage Service Provider (CSP) in order to achieve the attribute revocation, it does not need the participation of Attribute Authority (AA), which reduces the computational load of AA. Moreover, the user does not need any additional parameters to achieve the attribute revocation except of the private key, thus saving the storage space greatly

Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) mechanism is an extension of attribute-based encryption which associates the ciphertext and user's private key with the attribute by taking the attribute as a public key. It makes the representation of the access control policy more flexible, thus greatly reduces the network bandwidth and processing overhead of sending node brought by fine-grained access control of data sharing. According to the principle of CP-ABE encryption mechanism for this mechanism, an improved cloud computing-based encryption algorithm was proposed in this paper to overcome the deficiencies of permission changing process under the massive data. Experimental results show that compared with traditional methods, the new mechanism significantly reduces time-consuming.

Access Policies

In the cloud storage system, the server is no longer trusted, which is different from the traditional storage system. Therefore, it is necessary for data owners to encrypt data before outsourcing it for sharing. Simultaneously, the enforcement of access policies and support of policies updates becomes one of the most challenging issues. Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) is an appropriate solution to this issue. However, it comes with a new obstacle which is the attribute and user revocation. In this paper, we propose a fine-grained access control scheme with efficient revocation based on CP-ABE approach. In the proposed scheme, we not only realize an efficient and immediate revocation, but also eliminate some burden of computational overhead. The analysis results indicate that the proposed scheme is efficient and secure for access control in cloud storage systems.

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.

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.

In order to ensure the confidentiality and secure sharing of speech data, and to solve the problems of slow deployment of attribute encryption systems and fine-grained access control in cloud storage, a speech encryption scheme based on ciphertext policy hierarchical attributes was proposed. First, perform hierarchical processing of the attributes of the speech data to reflect the hierarchical structure and integrate the hierarchical access structure into a single-access structure. Second, use the attribute fast encryption framework to construct the attribute encryption scheme of the speech data, and use the integrated access to the speech data; thus, the structure is encrypted and uploaded to the cloud for storage and sharing. Finally, use the hardness of decisional bilinear Diffie–Hellman (DBDH) assumption to prove that the proposed scheme is secure in the random oracle model. The theoretical security analysis and experimental results show that the proposed scheme can achieve efficient and fine-grained access control and is secure and extensible.
