Abstract Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) enabled e-healthcare has the potential to greately improve conventional healthcare services significantly. However, security and privacy become major issues of IoMT because of the restricted processing abilities, storage, and energy constraints of the sensors. Therefore, it leads to infeasibility of developing traditional cryptographic solutions to the IoMT sensors. In order to ensure security on sensitive medical data, effective encryption and authentication techniques need to be designed to assure security of the patients and healthcare service providers. In this view, this study designs an effective metaheuristic optimization based encryption with user authentication (EMOE-UA) technique for IoMT… More >

Abstract In the healthcare applications, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) comforts the communication processes between the medical devices and the humans via wireless network. Moreover, this communication helps both the physicians and the patients to contact remotely for the diagnosis of the disease’s wearable devices sensor signals. However, IoMT system violates the privacy preserving of Patient’s Health Record (PHR) as well as self-sovereign identity of patient. In this regard, security action should be taken. Previous techniques used in IoMT are in lack of data consistency, confidentiality, and inaccessible of data. To overcome these issues, the fog computing-based technology is used in… More >

Abstract As the use of cloud storage for various services increases, the amount of private personal information along with data stored in the cloud storage is also increasing. To remotely use the data stored on the cloud storage, the data to be stored needs to be encrypted for this reason. Since “searchable encryption” is enable to search on the encrypted data without any decryption, it is one of convenient solutions for secure data management. A public key encryption with keyword search (for short, PEKS) is one of searchable encryptions. Abdalla et al. firstly defined IND-CCA security for PEKS to enhance it’s… More >

Abstract In recent times, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) gained much attention in medical services and healthcare management domain. Since healthcare sector generates massive volumes of data like personal details, historical medical data, hospitalization records, and discharging records, IoMT devices too evolved with potentials to handle such high quantities of data. Privacy and security of the data, gathered by IoMT gadgets, are major issues while transmitting or saving it in cloud. The advancements made in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and encryption techniques find a way to handle massive quantities of medical data and achieve security. In this view, the current study presents… More >

Abstract Preserving privacy of the user is a very critical requirement to be met with all the international laws like GDPR, California privacy protection act and many other bills in place. On the other hand, Online Social Networks (OSN) has a wide spread recognition among the users, as a means of virtual communication. OSN may also acts as an identity provider for both internal and external applications. While it provides a simplified identification and authentication function to users across multiple applications, it also opens the users to a new spectrum of privacy threats. The privacy breaches costs to the users as… More >

Abstract Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a self-organizing wireless sensor network model, which is extensively used in the existing traffic. Due to the openness of wireless channel and the sensitivity of traffic information, data transmission process in VANET is vulnerable to leakage and attack. Authentication of vehicle identity while protecting vehicle privacy information is an advantageous way to improve the security of VANET. We propose a scheme based on fair blind signature and secret sharing algorithm. In this paper, we prove that the scheme is feasible through security analysis. More >

Abstract Blockchain has a profound impact on all areas of society by virtue of its immutability, decentralization and other characteristics. However, blockchain faces the problem of data privacy leakage during the application process, and the rapid development of quantum computing also brings the threat of quantum attack to blockchain. In this paper, we propose a lattice-based certificateless fully homomorphic encryption (LCFHE) algorithm based on approximate eigenvector firstly. And we use the lattice-based delegate algorithm and preimage sampling algorithm to extract part of the private key based on certificateless scheme, which is composed of the private key together with the secret value… More >

Abstract VANETs are a subclass of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) that enable efficient data transmission between vehicles and other vehicles, road side units (RSUs), and infrastructure. The purpose of VANET is to enhance security, road traffic management, and traveler services. Due to the nature of real-time issues such as reliability and privacy, messages transmitted via the VANET must be secret and confidential. As a result, this study provides a method for privacy-preserving reliable data transmission in a cluster-based VANET employing Fog Computing (PPRDA-FC). The PPRDA-FC technique suggested here seeks to ensure reliable message transmission by utilising FC and an optimal… More >
