A fine‐grained and traceable multidomain secure data‐sharing model for intelligent terminals in edge‐cloud collaboration scenarios

Abstract

Secure data-sharing technology is a bridge for various collaborative operations among intelligent terminals in the edge-cloud collaborative application scenario. For the shared data involves different levels of confidentiality, intelligent terminals for collaborative operations may be distributed in multiple management domains, and the private information of intelligent terminals is easy to be leaked in edge-cloud collaboration scenarios, the security of data sharing is severely threatened. To solve these problems, this paper proposed a fine-grained and traceable multidomain secure data-sharing model for intelligent terminals. In this model, a key self-certification algorithm is proposed, which avoids potential security threats of key leakage during the key distribution process. The model combines attribute encryption and threshold function to achieve more fine-grained and more flexible secure data sharing; it uses blockchain technology to achieve integrity verification of stored data and traceability of shared data, and it combines on-chain and off-chain databases to achieve rapid retrieval and positioning of shared data distributed among multiple domains, which improves the efficiency of data sharing among domains. The security of the model proposed by us is proved, and compared with the cited literature, it is shown that the proposed model has certain advantages in terms of computational complexity and time consumption.
