The Lagrange's polynomial and curve fitting are being used to implement hierarchical key management for Mobile Ad hoc Networks(MANETs). The polynomial interpolation by Lagrange and curve fitting requires high computational efforts for higher order polynomials and moreover they are susceptible to Runge's phenomenon. The Chebyshev polynomials are secure, accurate, and stable and there is no limit to the degree of the polynomials. The distributed key management is a big challenge in these time varying networks. In this work, the Chebyshev polynomials are used to perform key management and tested in various conditions. The secret key shares generation, symmetric key construction and key distribution by using Chebyshev polynomials are the main elements of this projected work. The significance property of Chebyshev polynomials is its recursive nature. The mobile nodes usually have less computational power and less memory, the key management by using Chebyshev polynomials reduces the burden of mobile nodes to implement the overall system.展开更多

For every autherized department Si(i = 1,2,… ,n), there are qi authorized persons, and every authorized person has the same secret key information as that of any other authorized persons in the same authorized department. The secret key information can be reconstructed completely from the secret key information of any k authorized persons, if there is at least one authorized person included for every authorized department. But other cases, the secret key information cannot be reconstructed completely. In this paper, based on the algebraic semigroup theory, a secret key sharing scheme is proposed, which can satisfy the demand.展开更多

This leads to the reduction in the traffic cost. Due to the deployment of the WSN in the remote and hostile environments for the transmission of the sensitive information, the sensor nodes are more prone to the false data injection attacks. To overcome these existing issues and enhance the network security, this paper proposes a Secure Area based Clustering approach for data aggregation using Traffic Analysis (SAC-TA) in WSN. Here, the sensor network is clustered into small clusters, such that each cluster has a CH to manage and gather the information from the normal sensor nodes. The CH is selected based on the predefined time slot, cluster center, and highest residual energy. The gathered data are validated based on the traffic analysis and One-time Key Generation procedures to identify the malicious nodes on the route. It helps to provide a secure data gathering process with improved energy efficiency. The performance of the proposed approach is compared with the existing Secure Data Aggregation Technique (SDAT). The proposed SAC-TA yields lower average energy consumption rate, lower end-to-end delay, higher average residual energy, higher data aggregation accuracy and false data detection rate than the existing technique.展开更多

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.展开更多

There is a contradiction to satisfy both Blue and Green design criteria simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a new BlueGreen topological control scheme to leverage the wireless link connectivity for WCNs using an adaptive encryption key allocation mechanism, named as Shared Backup Path Keys (SBPK). The BlueGreen SBPK can take into account the network dependable requirements such as service resilience, security assurance and energy efficiency as a whole, so as trading off between them to find an optimal solution. Actually, this challenging problem can be modeled as a global optimization problem, where the network working and backup elements such as nodes, links, encryption keys and their energy consumption are considered as a resource, and their utilization should be minimized. The case studies confirm that there is a trade-off optimal solution between the capacity efficiency and energy efficiency to achieve the dependable WCNs.展开更多

Based on a combinatorial distribution of shares we present secret sharing schemes and cryptosystems using Nielsen transformations. Nielsen transformations are a linear technique to study free groups and general infinite groups. In addition the group of all automorphisms of a free group F, denoted by AUT (F), is generated by a regular Nielsen transformation between two basis of F, and each regular Nielsen transformation between two basis of F defines an automorphism of F.展开更多

We choose proxy reencryption(PRE) as the cloud data encryption technique. In a PRE system, a semi-trusted proxy can transform a ciphertext under one public key into a ciphertext of the same message under another public key, but the proxy cannot gain any information about the message. In this paper, we propose a certificateless PRE(CL-PRE) scheme without pairings. The security of the proposed scheme can be proved to be equivalent to the computational DiffieHellman(CDH) problem in the random oracle model. Compared with other existing CL-PRE schemes, our scheme requires less computation cost and is significantly more efficient. The new scheme does not need the public key certificates to guarantee validity of public keys and solves the key escrow problem in identity-based public key cryptography.展开更多

However, there is two problems in the bitcoin transactions : the account security and transaction privacy. In view of the above problems, a new partially blind threshold signature scheme is proposed, which can both enhance the security of bitcoin account and preserve the privacy of transaction. Firstly, transaction amounts are encrypted by employing the homomorphic Paillier cryptosystem, and output address is disturbed by using one-time public key. Then the encrypted or disrupted transaction information is signed by multiple participants who are authorized by using threshold secret sharing. Compared with partially blind fuzzy signature scheme, the proposed scheme can fully preserve the transaction privacy. Furthermore, performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme is secure and effective in practical applications.展开更多

文摘Clustering is the most significant task characterized in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) by data aggregation through each Cluster Head (CH). This leads to the reduction in the traffic cost. Due to the deployment of the WSN in the remote and hostile environments for the transmission of the sensitive information, the sensor nodes are more prone to the false data injection attacks. To overcome these existing issues and enhance the network security, this paper proposes a Secure Area based Clustering approach for data aggregation using Traffic Analysis (SAC-TA) in WSN. Here, the sensor network is clustered into small clusters, such that each cluster has a CH to manage and gather the information from the normal sensor nodes. The CH is selected based on the predefined time slot, cluster center, and highest residual energy. The gathered data are validated based on the traffic analysis and One-time Key Generation procedures to identify the malicious nodes on the route. It helps to provide a secure data gathering process with improved energy efficiency. The performance of the proposed approach is compared with the existing Secure Data Aggregation Technique (SDAT). The proposed SAC-TA yields lower average energy consumption rate, lower end-to-end delay, higher average residual energy, higher data aggregation accuracy and false data detection rate than the existing technique.

文摘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.
文摘The future Wireless Cloud Networks (WCNs) are required to satisfy both extremely high levels of service resilience and security assurance (i.e., Blue criteria) by overproviding backup network resources and cryptographic protection on wireless communication respectively, as well as minimizing energy consumption (i.e., Green criteria) by switching off unnecessary resources as much as possible. There is a contradiction to satisfy both Blue and Green design criteria simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a new BlueGreen topological control scheme to leverage the wireless link connectivity for WCNs using an adaptive encryption key allocation mechanism, named as Shared Backup Path Keys (SBPK). The BlueGreen SBPK can take into account the network dependable requirements such as service resilience, security assurance and energy efficiency as a whole, so as trading off between them to find an optimal solution. Actually, this challenging problem can be modeled as a global optimization problem, where the network working and backup elements such as nodes, links, encryption keys and their energy consumption are considered as a resource, and their utilization should be minimized. The case studies confirm that there is a trade-off optimal solution between the capacity efficiency and energy efficiency to achieve the dependable WCNs.

文摘The vast revolution in networking is increasing rapidly along with tech-nology advancements,which requires more effort from all cyberspace profes-sionals to cope with the challenges that come with advanced technology privileges and services.Hence,Cognitive Radio Network is one of the promising approaches that permit a dynamic type of smart network for improving the utili-zation of idle spectrum portions of wireless communications.However,it is vul-nerable to security threats and attacks and demands security mechanisms to preserve and protect the cognitive radio networks for ensuring a secure commu-nication environment.This paper presents an effective secure MAC protocol for cognitive radio networks,significantly enhancing the security level of the existing DSMCRN and SSMCRN protocols by eliminating the authentication server’s necessity,which can be a single point of failure to compromise the entire network communication.The proposed protocol has proven to be effective and reliable since it does not rely on a centralized entity for providing the required security for a single pair of cognitive users.The protocol also improves the performance in the context of fast switching to data channels leading to higher throughput is achieved compared to the benchmark protocols.
文摘We introduce in this paper cryptographic protocols which use combinatorial group theory. Based on a combinatorial distribution of shares we present secret sharing schemes and cryptosystems using Nielsen transformations. Nielsen transformations are a linear technique to study free groups and general infinite groups. In addition the group of all automorphisms of a free group F, denoted by AUT (F), is generated by a regular Nielsen transformation between two basis of F, and each regular Nielsen transformation between two basis of F defines an automorphism of F.

文摘Image secret sharing(ISS)is gaining popularity due to the importance of digital images and its wide application to cloud-based distributed storage and multiparty secure computing.Shadow image authentication generally includes shadow image detection and identification,and plays an important role in ISS.However,traditional dealer-participatory methods,which suffer from significant pixel expansion or storing auxiliary information,authenticate the shadow image mainly during the decoding phase,also known as unidirectional authentication.The authentication of the shadow image in the distributing(encoding)phase is also important for the participant.In this study,we introduce a public key based bidirectional shadow image authentication method in ISS without pixel expansion for a(k,n)threshold.When the dealer distributes each shadow image to a corresponding participant,the participant can authenticate the received shadow image with his/her private key.In the decoding phase,the dealer can authenticate each received shadow image with a secret key;in addition,the dealer can losslessly decode the secret image with any k or more shadow images.The proposed method is validated using theoretical analyses,illustrations,and comparisons.

文摘In current cloud computing system, large amounts of sensitive data are shared to other cloud users.To keep these data confidentiality, data owners should encrypt their data before outsourcing. We choose proxy reencryption(PRE) as the cloud data encryption technique. In a PRE system, a semi-trusted proxy can transform a ciphertext under one public key into a ciphertext of the same message under another public key, but the proxy cannot gain any information about the message. In this paper, we propose a certificateless PRE(CL-PRE) scheme without pairings. The security of the proposed scheme can be proved to be equivalent to the computational DiffieHellman(CDH) problem in the random oracle model. Compared with other existing CL-PRE schemes, our scheme requires less computation cost and is significantly more efficient. The new scheme does not need the public key certificates to guarantee validity of public keys and solves the key escrow problem in identity-based public key cryptography.

文摘As a kind of cryptocurrency, bitcoin has attracted much attention with its decentralization. However, there is two problems in the bitcoin transactions : the account security and transaction privacy. In view of the above problems, a new partially blind threshold signature scheme is proposed, which can both enhance the security of bitcoin account and preserve the privacy of transaction. Firstly, transaction amounts are encrypted by employing the homomorphic Paillier cryptosystem, and output address is disturbed by using one-time public key. Then the encrypted or disrupted transaction information is signed by multiple participants who are authorized by using threshold secret sharing. Compared with partially blind fuzzy signature scheme, the proposed scheme can fully preserve the transaction privacy. Furthermore, performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme is secure and effective in practical applications.
文摘The construction and development of the digital economy,digital society and digital government are facing some common basic problems.Among them,the construction of the data governance system and the improvement of data governance capacity are short boards and weak links,which have seriously restricted the construction and development of the digital economy,digital society and digital government.At present,the broad concept of data governance goes beyond the scope of traditional data governance,which“involves at least four aspects:the establishment of data asset status,management system and mechanism,sharing and openness,security and privacy protection”.Traditional information technologies and methods are powerless to comprehensively solve these problems,so it is urgent to improve understanding and find another way to reconstruct the information technology architecture to provide a scientific and reasonable technical system for effectively solving the problems of data governance.This paper redefined the information technology architecture and proposed the data architecture as the connection link and application support system between the traditional hardware architecture and software architecture.The data registration system is the core composition of the data architecture,and the public key encryption and authentication system is the key component of the data architecture.This data governance system based on the data architecture supports complex,comprehensive,collaborative and cross-domain business application scenarios.It provides scientific and feasible basic support for the construction and development of the digital economy,digital society and digital government.
