A Novel Agricultural Data Sharing Mode Based on Rice Disease Identification

In this paper,a variety of classical convolutional neural networks are trained on two different datasets using transfer learning method.We demonstrated that the training dataset has a significant impact on the training results,in addition to the optimization achieved through the model structure.However,the lack of open-source agricultural data,combined with the absence of a comprehensive open-source data sharing platform,remains a substantial obstacle.This issue is closely related to the difficulty and high cost of obtaining high-quality agricultural data,the low level of education of most employees,underdeveloped distributed training systems and unsecured data security.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a novel idea of constructing an agricultural data sharing platform based on a federated learning(FL)framework,aiming to overcome the deficiency of high-quality data in agricultural field training.

Evolutionary privacy-preserving learning strategies for edge-based IoT data sharing schemes

The fast proliferation of edge devices for the Internet of Things(IoT)has led to massive volumes of data explosion.The generated data is collected and shared using edge-based IoT structures at a considerably high frequency.Thus,the data-sharing privacy exposure issue is increasingly intimidating when IoT devices make malicious requests for filching sensitive information from a cloud storage system through edge nodes.To address the identified issue,we present evolutionary privacy preservation learning strategies for an edge computing-based IoT data sharing scheme.In particular,we introduce evolutionary game theory and construct a payoff matrix to symbolize intercommunication between IoT devices and edge nodes,where IoT devices and edge nodes are two parties of the game.IoT devices may make malicious requests to achieve their goals of stealing privacy.Accordingly,edge nodes should deny malicious IoT device requests to prevent IoT data from being disclosed.They dynamically adjust their own strategies according to the opponent's strategy and finally maximize the payoffs.Built upon a developed application framework to illustrate the concrete data sharing architecture,a novel algorithm is proposed that can derive the optimal evolutionary learning strategy.Furthermore,we numerically simulate evolutionarily stable strategies,and the final results experimentally verify the correctness of the IoT data sharing privacy preservation scheme.Therefore,the proposed model can effectively defeat malicious invasion and protect sensitive information from leaking when IoT data is shared.

Federated Learning with Blockchain for Privacy-Preserving Data Sharing in Internet of Vehicles

Data sharing technology in Internet of Vehicles(Io V)has attracted great research interest with the goal of realizing intelligent transportation and traffic management.Meanwhile,the main concerns have been raised about the security and privacy of vehicle data.The mobility and real-time characteristics of vehicle data make data sharing more difficult in Io V.The emergence of blockchain and federated learning brings new directions.In this paper,a data-sharing model that combines blockchain and federated learning is proposed to solve the security and privacy problems of data sharing in Io V.First,we use federated learning to share data instead of exposing actual data and propose an adaptive differential privacy scheme to further balance the privacy and availability of data.Then,we integrate the verification scheme into the consensus process,so that the consensus computation can filter out low-quality models.Experimental data shows that our data-sharing model can better balance the relationship between data availability and privacy,and also has enhanced security.

BC-PC-Share:Blockchain-Based Patient-Centric Data Sharing Scheme for PHRs in Cloud Computing

Sharing of personal health records(PHR)in cloud computing is an essential functionality in the healthcare system.However,how to securely,efficiently and flexibly share PHRs data of the patient in a multi-receiver setting has not been well addressed.For instance,since the trust domain of the cloud server is not identical to the data owner or data user,the semi-trust cloud service provider may intentionally destroy or tamper shared PHRs data of user or only transform partial ciphertext of the shared PHRs or even return wrong computation results to save its storage and computation resource,to pursue maximum economic interest or other malicious purposes.Thus,the PHRs data storing or sharing via the cloud server should be performed with consistency and integrity verification.Fortunately,the emergence of blockchain technology provides new ideas and prospects for ensuring the consistency and integrity of shared PHRs data.To this end,in this work,we leverage the consortiumblockchain technology to enhance the trustworthiness of each participant and propose a blockchain-based patient-centric data sharing scheme for PHRs in cloud computing(BC-PC-Share).Different from the state-of-art schemes,our proposal can achieve the following desired properties:(1)Realizing patient-centric PHRs sharing with a public verification function,i.e.,which can ensure that the returned shared data is consistent with the requested shared data and the integrity of the shared data is not compromised.(2)Supporting scalable and fine-grained access control and sharing of PHRs data with multiple domain users,such as hospitals,medical research institutes,and medical insurance companies.(3)Achieving efficient user decryption by leveraging the transformation key technique and efficient user revocation by introducing time-controlled access.The security analysis and simulation experiment demonstrate that the proposed BC-PC-Share scheme is a feasible and promising solution for PHRs data sharing via consortium blockchain.

Medi-Block Record Secure Data Sharing in Healthcare System:Issues,Solutions and Challenges

With the advancements in the era of artificial intelligence,blockchain,cloud computing,and big data,there is a need for secure,decentralized medical record storage and retrieval systems.While cloud storage solves storage issues,it is challenging to realize secure sharing of records over the network.Medi-block record in the healthcare system has brought a new digitalization method for patients’medical records.This centralized technology provides a symmetrical process between the hospital and doctors when patients urgently need to go to a different or nearby hospital.It enables electronic medical records to be available with the correct authentication and restricts access to medical data retrieval.Medi-block record is the consumer-centered healthcare data system that brings reliable and transparent datasets for the medical record.This study presents an extensive review of proposed solutions aiming to protect the privacy and integrity of medical data by securing data sharing for Medi-block records.It also aims to propose a comprehensive investigation of the recent advances in different methods of securing data sharing,such as using Blockchain technology,Access Control,Privacy-Preserving,Proxy Re-Encryption,and Service-On-Chain approach.Finally,we highlight the open issues and identify the challenges regarding secure data sharing for Medi-block records in the healthcare systems.

Achieving Fine-Grained and Flexible Access Control on Blockchain-Based Data Sharing for the Internet of Things

The traditional centralized data sharing systems have potential risks such as single point of failures and excessive working load on the central node.As a distributed and collaborative alternative,approaches based upon blockchain have been explored recently for Internet of Things(IoTs).However,the access from a legitimate user may be denied without the pre-defined policy and data update on the blockchain could be costly to the owners.In this paper,we first address these issues by incorporating the Accountable Subgroup Multi-Signature(ASM)algorithm into the Attribute-based Access Control(ABAC)method with Policy Smart Contract,to provide a finegrained and flexible solution.Next,we propose a policy-based Chameleon Hash algorithm that allows the data to be updated in a reliable and convenient way by the authorized users.Finally,we evaluate our work by comparing its performance with the benchmarks.The results demonstrate significant improvement on the effectiveness and efficiency.

An intelligent and privacy-enhanced data sharing strategy for blockchain-empowered Internet of Things

With the development of the Internet of Things(IoT),the massive data sharing between IoT devices improves the Quality of Service(QoS)and user experience in various IoT applications.However,data sharing may cause serious privacy leakages to data providers.To address this problem,in this study,data sharing is realized through model sharing,based on which a secure data sharing mechanism,called BP2P-FL,is proposed using peer-to-peer federated learning with the privacy protection of data providers.In addition,by introducing the blockchain to the data sharing,every training process is recorded to ensure that data providers offer high-quality data.For further privacy protection,the differential privacy technology is used to disturb the global data sharing model.The experimental results show that BP2P-FL has high accuracy and feasibility in the data sharing of various IoT applications.

Achieving Fuzzy Matching Data Sharing for Secure Cloud-Edge Communication

In this paper,we propose a novel fuzzy matching data sharing scheme named FADS for cloudedge communications.FADS allows users to specify their access policies,and enables receivers to obtain the data transmitted by the senders if and only if the two sides meet their defined certain policies simultaneously.Specifically,we first formalize the definition and security models of fuzzy matching data sharing in cloud-edge environments.Then,we construct a concrete instantiation by pairing-based cryptosystem and the privacy-preserving set intersection on attribute sets from both sides to construct a concurrent matching over the policies.If the matching succeeds,the data can be decrypted.Otherwise,nothing will be revealed.In addition,FADS allows users to dynamically specify the policy for each time,which is an urgent demand in practice.A thorough security analysis demonstrates that FADS is of provable security under indistinguishable chosen ciphertext attack(IND-CCA)in random oracle model against probabilistic polynomial-time(PPT)adversary,and the desirable security properties of privacy and authenticity are achieved.Extensive experiments provide evidence that FADS is with acceptable efficiency.

SSEM： Secure, Scalable and Efficient Multi-Owner Data Sharing in Clouds

Data sharing is a main application of cloud computing. Some existing solutions are proposed to provide flexible access control for outsourced data in the cloud. However, few attentions have been paid to group-oriented data sharing when multiple data owners want to share their private data for cooperative purposes. In this paper, we put forward a new paradigm, referred to as secure, scalable and efficient multi-owner(SSEM) data sharing in clouds. The SSEM integrates identity-based encryption and asymmetric group key agreement to enable group-oriented access control for data owners in a many-to-many sharing pattern. Moreover, with SSEM, users can join in or leave from the group conveniently with the privacy of both group data and user data.We proposed the key-ciphertext homomorphism technique to construct an SSEM scheme with short ciphertexts. The security analysis shows that our SSEM scheme achieves data security against unauthorized accesses and collusion attacks. Both theoretical and experimental results confirm that our proposed scheme takes users little costs to share and access outsourced data in a group manner.

With the rapid growth of Internet of Things(IoT)based models,and the lack amount of data makes cloud computing resources insufficient.Hence,edge computing-based techniques are becoming more popular in present research domains that makes data storage,and processing effective at the network edges.There are several advanced features like parallel processing and data perception are available in edge computing.Still,there are some challenges in providing privacy and data security over networks.To solve the security issues in Edge Computing,Hash-based Message Authentication Code(HMAC)algorithm is used to provide solutions for preserving data from various attacks that happens with the distributed network nature.This paper proposed a Trust Model for Secure Data Sharing(TM-SDS)with HMAC algorithm.Here,data security is ensured with local and global trust levels with the centralized processing of cloud and by conserving resources effectively.Further,the proposed model achieved 84.25%of packet delivery ratio which is better compared to existing models in the resulting phase.The data packets are securely transmitted between entities in the proposed model and results showed that proposed TM-SDS model outperforms the existing models in an efficient manner.

Improved Secure Identification-Based Multilevel Structure of Data Sharing in Cloud Environments

The Cloud Computing Environment(CCE)developed for using the dynamic cloud is the ability of software and services likely to grow with any business.It has transformed the methodology for storing the enterprise data,accessing the data,and Data Sharing(DS).Big data frame a constant way of uploading and sharing the cloud data in a hierarchical architecture with different kinds of separate privileges to access the data.With the requirement of vast volumes of storage area in the CCEs,capturing a secured data access framework is an important issue.This paper proposes an Improved Secure Identification-based Multilevel Structure of Data Sharing(ISIMSDS)to hold the DS of big data in CCEs.The complex file partitioning technique is proposed to verify the access privilege context for sharing data in complex CCEs.An access control Encryption Method(EM)is used to improve the encryption.The Complexity is measured to increase the authentication standard.The active attack is protected using this ISIMSDS methodology.Our proposed ISIMSDS method assists in diminishing the Complexity whenever the user’s population is increasing rapidly.The security analysis proves that the proposed ISIMSDS methodology is more secure against the chosen-PlainText(PT)attack and provides more efficient computation and storage space than the related methods.The performance of the proposed ISIMSDS methodology provides more efficiency in communication costs such as encryption,decryption,and retrieval of the data.

Spatial Data Sharing on Grid

The Internet technology has already changed the Information Society in profound ways, and will continue to do so. Nowadays many people foresee that there is a similar trajectory for the next generation of Internet - Grid Technology. As an emerging computational and networking infrastructure, Grid Computing is designed to provide pervasive, uniform and reliable access to data, computational and human resources distributed in a dynamic, heterogeneous environment. On the other hand, the development of Geographic Information System （GIS） has been highly influenced by the evolution of information technology such as the Internet, telecommunications, software and various types of computing technology. In particular, in the distributed GIS domain, the development However, due to the closed and centralized has made significant impact in the past decade. legacy of the architecture and the lack of interoperability, modularity, and flexibility, current distributed GIS still cannot fully accommodate the distributed, dynamic, heterogeneous and speedy development in network and computing environments. Hence, the development of a high performance distributed GIS system is still a challenging task. So, the development of Grid computing technology undoubtedly provides a unique opportunity for distributed GIS, and a Grid Computing based GIS paradigm becomes inevitable. This paper proposes a new computing platform based distributed GIS framework - the Grid Geographic Information System （G^2IS）.

A General Framework for Intelligent IoT Data Acquisition and Sharing in an Untrusted Environment Based on Blockchain

Traditional Io T systems suffer from high equipment management costs and difficulty in trustworthy data sharing caused by centralization.Blockchain provides a feasible research direction to solve these problems. The main challenge at this stage is to integrate the blockchain from the resourceconstrained Io T devices and ensure the data of Io T system is credible. We provide a general framework for intelligent Io T data acquisition and sharing in an untrusted environment based on the blockchain, where gateways become Oracles. A distributed Oracle network based on Byzantine Fault Tolerant algorithm is used to provide trusted data for the blockchain to make intelligent Io T data trustworthy. An aggregation contract is deployed to collect data from various Oracle and share the credible data to all on-chain users. We also propose a gateway data aggregation scheme based on the REST API event publishing/subscribing mechanism which uses SQL to achieve flexible data aggregation. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can alleviate the problem of limited performance of Io T equipment, make data reliable, and meet the diverse data needs on the chain.

Scalable and Privacy-Preserving Data Sharing Based on Blockchain

With the development of network technology and cloud computing, data sharing is becoming increasingly popular, and many scholars have conducted in-depth research to promote its flourish. As the scale of data sharing expands, its privacy protection has become a hot issue in research. Moreover, in data sharing, the data is usually maintained in multiple parties, which brings new challenges to protect the privacy of these multi-party data. In this paper, we propose a trusted data sharing scheme using blockchain. We use blockchain to prevent the shared data from being tampered, and use the Paillier cryptosystem to realize the confidentiality of the shared data. In the proposed scheme, the shared data can be traded, and the transaction information is protected by using the （p, t）-threshold Paillier cryptosystem. We conduct experiments in cloud storage scenarios and the experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Privacy-Preserving Data Sharing in Cloud Computing

Storing and sharing databases in the cloud of computers raise serious concern of individual privacy. We consider two kinds of privacy risk： presence leakage, by which the attackers can explicitly identify individuals in （or not in） the database, and association leakage, by which the attackers can unambiguously associate individuals with sensitive information. However, the existing privacy-preserving data sharing techniques either fail to protect the presence privacy or incur considerable amounts of information loss. In this paper, we propose a novel technique, Ambiguity, to protect both presence privacy and association privacy with low information loss. We formally define the privacy model and quantify the privacy guarantee of Ambiguity against both presence leakage and association leakage. We prove both theoretically and empirically that the information loss of Ambiguity is always less than the classic generalization-based anonymization technique. We further propose an improved scheme, PriView, that can achieve better information loss than Ambiguity. We propose efficient algorithms to construct both Ambiguity and PriView schemes. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of both Ambiguity and PriView schemes.
