Fog based Secure Framework for Personal Health Records Systems

The rapid development of personal health records (PHR) systems enables an individual to collect, create, store and share his PHR to authorized entities. Health care systems within the smart city environment require a patient to share his PRH data with a multitude of institutions' repositories located in the cloud. The cloud computing paradigm cannot meet such a massive transformative healthcare systems due to drawbacks including network latency, scalability and bandwidth. Fog computing relieves the burden of conventional cloud computing by availing intermediate fog nodes between the end users and the remote servers. Aiming at a massive demand of PHR data within a ubiquitous smart city, we propose a secure and fog assisted framework for PHR systems to address security, access control and privacy concerns. Built under a fog-based architecture, the proposed framework makes use of efficient key exchange protocol coupled with ciphertext attribute based encryption (CP-ABE) to guarantee confidentiality and fine-grained access control within the system respectively. We also make use of digital signature combined with CP-ABE to ensure the system authentication and users privacy. We provide the analysis of the proposed framework in terms of security and performance.Comment: 12 pages (CMC Journal, Tech Science Press

Running Big Data Privacy Preservation in the Hybrid Cloud Platform

Now a day’s cloud computing has been used all over the industry, due to rapid growth in information technology and mobile device technology. It is more important task, user’s data privacy preservation in the cloud environment. Big data platform is collection of sensitive and non-sensitive data. To provide solution of big data security in the cloud environment, organization comes with hybrid cloud approach. There are many small scale industries arising and making business with other organization. Any organization data owner or customers never want to scan or expose their private data by the cloud service provider. To improve security performance, cloud uses data encryption technique on original data in public cloud. Proposed system work is carried out how to improve image data privacy preserving in hybrid cloud. For that we are implementing image encryption algorithm based on Rubik’s cube principle improves the image cryptography for the public cloud data securit

Message sharing scheme based on edge computing in IoV

With the rapid development of 5G wireless communication and sensing technology, the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) will establish a widespread network between vehicles and roadside infrastructure. The collected road information is transferred to the cloud server with the assistance of roadside infrastructure, where it is stored and made available to other vehicles as a resource. However, in an open cloud environment, message confidentiality and vehicle identity privacy are severely compromised, and current attribute-based encryption algorithms still burden vehicles with large computational costs. In order to resolve these issues, we propose a message-sharing scheme in IoV based on edge computing. To start, we utilize attribute-based encryption techniques to protect the communications being delivered. We introduce edge computing, in which the vehicle outsources some operations in encryption and decryption to roadside units to reduce the vehicle's computational load. Second, to guarantee the integrity of the message and the security of the vehicle identity, we utilize anonymous identity-based signature technology. At the same time, we can batch verify the message, which further reduces the time and transmission of verifying a large number of message signatures. Based on the computational Diffie-Hellman problem, it is demonstrated that the proposed scheme is secure under the random oracle model. Finally, the performance analysis results show that our work is more computationally efficient compared to existing schemes and is more suitable for actual vehicle networking

Outsourced Analysis of Encrypted Graphs in the Cloud with Privacy Protection

Huge diagrams have unique properties for organizations and research, such as client linkages in informal organizations and customer evaluation lattices in social channels. They necessitate a lot of financial assets to maintain because they are large and frequently continue to expand. Owners of large diagrams may need to use cloud resources due to the extensive arrangement of open cloud resources to increase capacity and computation flexibility. However, the cloud's accountability and protection of schematics have become a significant issue. In this study, we consider calculations for security savings for essential graph examination practices: schematic extraterrestrial examination for outsourcing graphs in the cloud server. We create the security-protecting variants of the two proposed Eigen decay computations. They are using two cryptographic algorithms: additional substance homomorphic encryption (ASHE) strategies and some degree homomorphic encryption (SDHE) methods. Inadequate networks also feature a distinctively confidential info adaptation convention to allow the trade-off between secrecy and data sparseness. Both dense and sparse structures are investigated. According to test results, calculations with sparse encoding can drastically reduce information. SDHE-based strategies have reduced computing time, while ASHE-based methods have reduced stockpiling expenses

An extensive research survey on data integrity and deduplication towards privacy in cloud storage

Owing to the highly distributed nature of the cloud storage system, it is one of the challenging tasks to incorporate a higher degree of security towards the vulnerable data. Apart from various security concerns, data privacy is still one of the unsolved problems in this regards. The prime reason is that existing approaches of data privacy doesn't offer data integrity and secure data deduplication process at the same time, which is highly essential to ensure a higher degree of resistance against all form of dynamic threats over cloud and internet systems. Therefore, data integrity, as well as data deduplication is such associated phenomena which influence data privacy. Therefore, this manuscript discusses the explicit research contribution toward data integrity, data privacy, and data deduplication. The manuscript also contributes towards highlighting the potential open research issues followed by a discussion of the possible future direction of work towards addressing the existing problems
