However,the downlink broadcast exposes the physical layer vulnerable to the threat of illegal eavesdropping. Quantum noise stream cipher(QNSC) is a classic physical layer encryption method and well compatible with the OFDM-PON. Meanwhile, it is indispensable to exploit forward error correction(FEC) to control errors in data transmission. However, when QNSC and FEC are jointly coded, the redundant information becomes heavier and thus the code rate of the transmitted signal will be largely reduced. In this work, we propose a physical layer encryption scheme based on polar-code-assisted QNSC. In order to improve the code rate and security of the transmitted signal, we exploit chaotic sequences to yield the redundant bits and utilize the redundant information of the polar code to generate the higher-order encrypted signal in the QNSC scheme with the operation of the interleaver.We experimentally demonstrate the encrypted 16/64-QAM, 16/256-QAM, 16/1024-QAM, 16/4096-QAM QNSC signals transmitted over 30-km standard single mode fiber. For the transmitted 16/4096-QAM QNSC signal, compared with the conventional QNSC method, the proposed method increases the code rate from 0.1 to 0.32 with enhanced security.展开更多

F...A novel visually meaningful image encryption algorithm is proposed based on a hyperchaotic system and compressive sensing(CS), which aims to improve the visual security of steganographic image and decrypted quality. First, a dynamic spiral block scrambling is designed to encrypt the sparse matrix generated by performing discrete wavelet transform(DWT)on the plain image. Then, the encrypted image is compressed and quantified to obtain the noise-like cipher image. Then the cipher image is embedded into the alpha channel of the carrier image in portable network graphics(PNG) format to generate the visually meaningful steganographic image. In our scheme, the hyperchaotic Lorenz system controlled by the hash value of plain image is utilized to construct the scrambling matrix, the measurement matrix and the embedding matrix to achieve higher security. In addition, compared with other existing encryption algorithms, the proposed PNG-based embedding method can blindly extract the cipher image, thus effectively reducing the transmission cost and storage space. Finally, the experimental results indicate that the proposed encryption algorithm has very high visual security.展开更多

For the transmitted 16/4096-QAM QNSC signal, compared with the conventional QNSC method, the proposed method increases the code rate from 0.1 to 0.32 with enhanced security.

文摘Traditional email systems can only achieve one-way communication,which means only the receiver is allowed to search for emails on the email server.In this paper,we propose a blockchain-based certificateless bidirectional authenticated searchable encryption model for a cloud email system named certificateless authenticated bidirectional searchable encryption(CL-BSE)by combining the storage function of cloud server with the communication function of email server.In the new model,not only can the data receiver search for the relevant content by generating its own trapdoor,but the data owner also can retrieve the content in the same way.Meanwhile,there are dual authentication functions in our model.First,during encryption,the data owner uses the private key to authenticate their identity,ensuring that only legal owner can generate the keyword ciphertext.Second,the blockchain verifies the data owner’s identity by the received ciphertext,allowing only authorized members to store their data in the server and avoiding unnecessary storage space consumption.We obtain a formal definition of CL-BSE and formulate a specific scheme from the new system model.Then the security of the scheme is analyzed based on the formalized security model.The results demonstrate that the scheme achieves multikeyword ciphertext indistinguishability andmulti-keyword trapdoor privacy against any adversary simultaneously.In addition,performance evaluation shows that the new scheme has higher computational and communication efficiency by comparing it with some existing ones.

文摘Blockchain technology has garnered significant attention from global organizations and researchers due to its potential as a solution for centralized system challenges.Concurrently,the Internet of Things(IoT)has revolutionized the Fourth Industrial Revolution by enabling interconnected devices to offer innovative services,ultimately enhancing human lives.This paper presents a new approach utilizing lightweight blockchain technology,effectively reducing the computational burden typically associated with conventional blockchain systems.By integrating this lightweight blockchain with IoT systems,substantial reductions in implementation time and computational complexity can be achieved.Moreover,the paper proposes the utilization of the Okamoto Uchiyama encryption algorithm,renowned for its homomorphic characteristics,to reinforce the privacy and security of IoT-generated data.The integration of homomorphic encryption and blockchain technology establishes a secure and decentralized platformfor storing and analyzing sensitive data of the supply chain data.This platformfacilitates the development of some business models and empowers decentralized applications to perform computations on encrypted data while maintaining data privacy.The results validate the robust security of the proposed system,comparable to standard blockchain implementations,leveraging the distinctive homomorphic attributes of the Okamoto Uchiyama algorithm and the lightweight blockchain paradigm.
文摘The SubBytes (S-box) transformation is the most crucial operation in the AES algorithm, significantly impacting the implementation performance of AES chips. To design a high-performance S-box, a segmented optimization implementation of the S-box is proposed based on the composite field inverse operation in this paper. This proposed S-box implementation is modeled using Verilog language and synthesized using Design Complier software under the premise of ensuring the correctness of the simulation result. The synthesis results show that, compared to several current S-box implementation schemes, the proposed implementation of the S-box significantly reduces the area overhead and critical path delay, then gets higher hardware efficiency. This provides strong support for realizing efficient and compact S-box ASIC designs.

文摘A novel visually meaningful image encryption algorithm is proposed based on a hyperchaotic system and compressive sensing(CS), which aims to improve the visual security of steganographic image and decrypted quality. First, a dynamic spiral block scrambling is designed to encrypt the sparse matrix generated by performing discrete wavelet transform(DWT)on the plain image. Then, the encrypted image is compressed and quantified to obtain the noise-like cipher image. Then the cipher image is embedded into the alpha channel of the carrier image in portable network graphics(PNG) format to generate the visually meaningful steganographic image. In our scheme, the hyperchaotic Lorenz system controlled by the hash value of plain image is utilized to construct the scrambling matrix, the measurement matrix and the embedding matrix to achieve higher security. In addition, compared with other existing encryption algorithms, the proposed PNG-based embedding method can blindly extract the cipher image, thus effectively reducing the transmission cost and storage space. Finally, the experimental results indicate that the proposed encryption algorithm has very high visual security.

文摘Multi-Source data plays an important role in the evolution of media convergence.Its fusion processing enables the further mining of data and utilization of data value and broadens the path for the sharing and dissemination of media data.However,it also faces serious problems in terms of protecting user and data privacy.Many privacy protectionmethods have been proposed to solve the problemof privacy leakage during the process of data sharing,but they suffer fromtwo flaws:1)the lack of algorithmic frameworks for specific scenarios such as dynamic datasets in the media domain;2)the inability to solve the problem of the high computational complexity of ciphertext in multi-source data privacy protection,resulting in long encryption and decryption times.In this paper,we propose a multi-source data privacy protection method based on homomorphic encryption and blockchain technology,which solves the privacy protection problem ofmulti-source heterogeneous data in the dissemination ofmedia and reduces ciphertext processing time.We deployed the proposedmethod on theHyperledger platformfor testing and compared it with the privacy protection schemes based on k-anonymity and differential privacy.The experimental results showthat the key generation,encryption,and decryption times of the proposedmethod are lower than those in data privacy protection methods based on k-anonymity technology and differential privacy technology.This significantly reduces the processing time ofmulti-source data,which gives it potential for use in many applications.

文摘The security of digital images transmitted via the Internet or other public media is of the utmost importance.Image encryption is a method of keeping an image secure while it travels across a non-secure communication medium where it could be intercepted by unauthorized entities.This study provides an approach to color image encryption that could find practical use in various contexts.The proposed method,which combines four chaotic systems,employs singular value decomposition and a chaotic sequence,making it both secure and compression-friendly.The unified average change intensity,the number of pixels’change rate,information entropy analysis,correlation coefficient analysis,compression friendliness,and security against brute force,statistical analysis and differential attacks are all used to evaluate the algorithm’s performance.Following a thorough investigation of the experimental data,it is concluded that the proposed image encryption approach is secure against a wide range of attacks and provides superior compression friendliness when compared to chaos-based alternatives.

文摘Cloud storage and edge computing are utilized to address the storage and computational challenges arising from the exponential data growth in IoT.However,data privacy is potentially risky when data is outsourced to cloud servers or edge services.While data encryption ensures data confidentiality,it can impede data sharing and retrieval.Attribute-based searchable encryption(ABSE)is proposed as an effective technique for enhancing data security and privacy.Nevertheless,ABSE has its limitations,such as single attribute authorization failure,privacy leakage during the search process,and high decryption overhead.This paper presents a novel approach called the blockchain-assisted efficientmulti-authority attribute-based searchable encryption scheme(BEM-ABSE)for cloudedge collaboration scenarios to address these issues.BEM-ABSE leverages a consortium blockchain to replace the central authentication center for global public parameter management.It incorporates smart contracts to facilitate reliable and fair ciphertext keyword search and decryption result verification.To minimize the computing burden on resource-constrained devices,BEM-ABSE adopts an online/offline hybrid mechanism during the encryption process and a verifiable edge-assisted decryption mechanism.This ensures both low computation cost and reliable ciphertext.Security analysis conducted under the random oracle model demonstrates that BEM-ABSE is resistant to indistinguishable chosen keyword attacks(IND-CKA)and indistinguishable chosen plaintext attacks(INDCPA).Theoretical analysis and simulation results confirm that BEM-ABSE significantly improves computational efficiency compared to existing solutions.

文摘Nowadays,security plays an important role in Internet of Things(IoT)environment especially in medical services’domains like disease prediction and medical data storage.In healthcare sector,huge volumes of data are generated on a daily basis,owing to the involvement of advanced health care devices.In general terms,health care images are highly sensitive to alterations due to which any modifications in its content can result in faulty diagnosis.At the same time,it is also significant to maintain the delicate contents of health care images during reconstruction stage.Therefore,an encryption system is required in order to raise the privacy and security of healthcare data by not leaking any sensitive data.The current study introduces Improved Multileader Optimization with Shadow Image Encryption for Medical Image Security(IMLOSIE-MIS)technique for IoT environment.The aim of the proposed IMLOSIE-MIS model is to accomplish security by generating shadows and encrypting them effectively.To do so,the presented IMLOSIE-MIS model initially generates a set of shadows for every input medical image.Besides,shadow image encryption process takes place with the help of Multileader Optimization(MLO)withHomomorphic Encryption(IMLO-HE)technique,where the optimal keys are generated with the help of MLO algorithm.On the receiver side,decryption process is initially carried out and shadow image reconstruction process is conducted.The experimentation analysis was carried out on medical images and the results inferred that the proposed IMLOSIE-MIS model is an excellent performer compared to other models.The comparison study outcomes demonstrate that IMLOSIE-MIS model is robust and offers high security in IoT-enabled healthcare environment.

文摘To solve the problem that the existing ciphertext domain image retrieval system is challenging to balance security,retrieval efficiency,and retrieval accuracy.This research suggests a searchable encryption and deep hashing-based secure image retrieval technique that extracts more expressive image features and constructs a secure,searchable encryption scheme.First,a deep learning framework based on residual network and transfer learn-ing model is designed to extract more representative image deep features.Secondly,the central similarity is used to quantify and construct the deep hash sequence of features.The Paillier homomorphic encryption encrypts the deep hash sequence to build a high-security and low-complexity searchable index.Finally,according to the additive homomorphic property of Paillier homomorphic encryption,a similarity measurement method suitable for com-puting in the retrieval system’s security is ensured by the encrypted domain.The experimental results,which were obtained on Web Image Database from the National University of Singapore(NUS-WIDE),Microsoft Common Objects in Context(MS COCO),and ImageNet data sets,demonstrate the system’s robust security and precise retrieval,the proposed scheme can achieve efficient image retrieval without revealing user privacy.The retrieval accuracy is improved by at least 37%compared to traditional hashing schemes.At the same time,the retrieval time is saved by at least 9.7%compared to the latest deep hashing schemes.

文摘Attribute-based encryption with keyword search(ABEKS)is a novel cryptographic paradigm that can be used to implementfine-grained access control and retrieve ciphertexts without disclosing the sensitive information.It is a perfect combination of attribute-based encryption(ABE)and public key encryption with keyword search(PEKS).Nevertheless,most of the existing ABEKS schemes have limited search capabilities and only support single or simple conjunctive keyword search.Due to the weak search capability and inaccurate search results,it is difficult to apply these schemes to practical applications.In this paper,an effi-cient expressive ABEKS(EABEKS)scheme supporting unbounded keyword uni-verse over prime-order groups is designed,which supplies the expressive keyword search function supporting the logical connectives of“AND”and“OR”.The proposed scheme not only leads to low computation and communica-tion costs,but also supports unbounded keyword universe.In the standard model,the scheme is proven to be secure under the chosen keyword attack and the cho-sen plaintext attack.The comparison analysis and experimental results show that it has better performance than the existing EABEKS schemes in the storage,com-putation and communication costs.
