E-healthcare as a significant facet of the Internet of Things (IoT) relies on wearable devices to continuously monitor users' vital signals for health-related purposes. The sensitive and vast nature of the collected data necessitate secure encryption and storage on the cloud. Simultaneously, there is a need to share these data for healthcare purposes. How to balance the privacy and usability of these data is a challenging problem in the e-healthcare applications. A central problem arose from the continuous data collection is how to effectively share the data collected in one specific time...

Cloud computing has emerged as a popular choice for distributing data among both individuals and companies. Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) has been extensively used to provide data security and enable fine-grained access control. With this encryption technique, only users whose attributes satisfy the access policy can access the plaintext. In order to mitigate the computational overhead on users, particularly on lightweight devices, partial decryption has been introduced, where the cloud assists in performing the decryption computations without revealing sensitive inform...

As the next-generation power grid, the smart grid has significantly improved dependability, flexibility, and efficiency compared with the traditional power grid. However, due to increasingly diverse application requirements, it faces challenges on balancing data privacy, efficiency, and robustness. In this paper, we present a fog computing-based smart grid model. In addition, based on the proposed model, we construct an efficient and privacy-preserving scheme that supports malicious secure smart grid usage data aggregation communication. To our best knowledge, this is the first concrete smart ...

The purpose of privacy-preserving spam filtering is to inspect email while preserving the privacy of its detection rules and the email content. Although many solutions have emerged, they suffer from the following: 1) The privacy provided is insufficient as the email content or detection rules may be exposed to third parties; 2) Due to improper use of encryption, exhaustive word search attacks are possible, potentially breaking the confidentiality of encrypted emails; 3) When spam filtering is outsourced, email is given to the outsource, where user privacy may be compromised if privacy protecti...

Federated learning has received widespread attention in recent years, since it trains a model by only sharing gradients without accessing training sets. In this paper, we consider two security issues in the training process of federated learning, i.e., privacy preservation and message verification, which mainly consider the security of the local gradients uploaded by clients and the aggregation result. We give the detail design about the privacy preserving federated learning with mutual authentication, which provides the privacy-preserving and mutually verifiable federated learning framework o...
