面向边缘计算的可信协同框架

Collaborative Trustworthy Framework for Edge Computing

在边缘计算环境中,边缘节点种类多样,分布范围广,工作环境差异大,这使得数据安全保障变得非常复杂,难以对其传输数据的可信性进行有效评价,从而影响整个边缘计算环境的安全性。针对上述问题,基于可信计算中密封密钥及群数字签名技术,该文提出边缘可信计算基(ETCB)的概念,并给出了构建ETCB的算法集,设计了面向边缘计算的可信数据验证协议,并对算法正确性和协议安全性进行了证明。该框架结合可信计算技术的优势,在不改变原有边缘计算模式的前提下,实现了数据的分布式可信验证。

In the edge computing environment,the edge nodes have various kinds,wide distribution range and great differences in working environment,which makes the data security guarantee become very complicated.It is difficult to evaluate the credibility of the data transmitted by nodes effectively,thus affecting the security of the entire edge computing environment.To solve the problem,a novel collaborative trustworthy framework for edge computing is presented in the paper.By using the advantage of trusted computing technology,the concept of Trusted Computing Base for Edge computing(ETCB)is introduced,algorithms of the constructing ETCB are given and a trusted data validation protocol for the edge computing is designed.Meanwhile,the correctness of the algorithms and the security analysis of the protocol are also given.The framework can realize the distributed trusted verification of data without changing the original edge computing mode.
