Cloud computing is the most prevailing paradigm, which provides computing resources and services over the Internet. Due to immense development in services provided by cloud computing, the trend to share large-scale and confidential data on cloud has been increased. Though cloud computing provides many benefits, ensuring security of the data stored in cloud is the biggest challenge. The security concern about the data becomes main barrier for adoption of cloud. One of the important security aspects is fine grained access control mechanism. The most widely used and efficient access control scheme for cloud computing is Attribute Based Encryption (ABE). The Attribute Based Encryption (ABE) scheme provides a new technique for embedding access policies cryptographically into encryption process. The article presents an overview of various existing attribute-based encryption schemes and traditional access control models. Also, the comparison of existing ABE schemes for cloud computing, on basis of various criteria is presented in the article.

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.

Access Control Mechanism

Trust management is a distributed access control mechanism for open, large-scale network. SPKI/SDSI and RT0 are typical trust management systems. This paper compares the different crendentials in those systems essentially, and the result shows that although RT0 crendentials are relatively simple, they are expressively eauivalent to SPKI/SDSI crendentials.

Access Control Mechanism

This paper presents an action-based fine-grained access control mechanism for structured documents. Firstly, we define a describing model for structured documents and analyze the application scenarios. The describing model could support the permission management on chapters, pages, sections, words, and pictures of structured documents. Secondly, based on the action-based access control (ABAC) model, we propose a fine-grained control protocol for structured documents by introducing temporal state and environmental state. The protocol covering different stages from document creation, to permission specification and usage control are given by using the Z-notation. Finally, we give the implementation of our mechanism and make the comparisons between the existing methods and our mechanism. The result shows that our mechanism could provide the better solution of fine-grained access control for structured documents in complicated networks. Moreover, it is more flexible and practical.

Attribute Based Encryption

Cloud computing refers to the application and service that run on a distributed system using virtualized resources and access by common internet protocol and networking standard. Cloud computing virtualizes system by pooling and sharing resources. System and resources can be monitored from central infrastructure as needed. It requires high security because now day’s companies are placing more essential and huge amount of data on cloud. Hence traditional access control models are not sufficient for cloud computing applications. So encryption based on Attribute (“ABE”-“Attribute based encryption”) has been offered for access control of subcontracted data in cloud computing with complex access control policies. Traditional HASBE provides Flexibility, scalability and fine-grained access control but does not support hierarchical domain structure. In this paper, we had enhanced “Hierarchical attribute-set-based encryption” (“HASBE”) access control with a hierarchical assembly of users, with flexible domain Hierarchy structure and Secure key distribution with predefined policy
