Audit-Free Cloud Storage via Deniable Attribute-based Encryption
Abstract
Increasingly popular are cloud storage services. Because of the importance of privacy, many cloud storage encryption schemes have been proposed to protect data from those who have no access. All such schemes assumed that cloud storage providers are safe and can not be hacked; however, in practice, some authorities (i.e., coercers) may force cloud storage providers to disclose user secrets or confidential cloud data, thus completely circumventing storage encryption schemes. In this Project on Audit-Free Cloud Storage via Deniable Attribute-based Encryption paper, we present our design for a new encryption scheme for cloud storage that allows cloud storage providers to create convincing fake user secrets to protect user privacy.
Introduction
Audit-Free Cloud Storage via Deniable Attribute-based Encryption A large collection of systems connected in private or public networks that provide dynamic data, application and file storage infrastructure is called cloud computing. It is a practical approach to transform a data center from a capital-intensive set-up to a variable priced environment. Since the cloud can scale dynamically, sudden spikes can also be efficiently managed.Delivery speed is critical because businesses have to adapt to changing business conditions even more quickly.
