The incentive mechanism model of information security outsourcing is designed based on the principal-agent theory. Through analyzing the factors such as enterprise information assets value, invasion probability, information security environment, the agent cost coefficient and agency risk preference degree how to impact on the incentive mechanism, conclusions show that an enterprise information assets value and invasion probability have a positive influence on the fixed fee and the compensation coefficient; while information security environment, the agent cost coefficient and agency risk preference degree have a negative influence on the compensation coefficient. Therefore, the principal enterprises should reasonably design the fixed fee and the compensation coefficient to encourage information security outsourcing agency enterprises to the full extent.展开更多

Several extended private information retrieval protocols based on fully homomorphic encryption are designed, so that the reading and writing of the tape of the Turing machine, as well as the evaluation of the transition function of the Turing machine, can be performed by the permitted Boolean circuits of fully homomorphic encryption schemes. This scheme overwhelms the Turing-machine-to- circuit conversion approach, which also implements the Turing-equivalent computation. The encoding of a Turing- machine-to-circuit conversion approach is dependent on both the input data and the worst-case runtime. The proposed scheme efficiently provides the confidentiality of both program and data of the delegator in the delegator-worker model of outsourced computation against semi-honest workers.展开更多
