    SFSDA: Secure and Flexible Subset Data Aggregation with Fault Tolerance for Smart Grid

    Dong Chen1, Tanping Zhou1,2,3,*, Xu An Wang1,2, Zichao Song1, Yujie Ding1, Xiaoyuan Yang1,2

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.37, No.2, pp. 2477-2497, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.039238

    Abstract Smart grid (SG) brings convenience to users while facing great challenges in protecting personal private data. Data aggregation plays a key role in protecting personal privacy by aggregating all personal data into a single value, preventing the leakage of personal data while ensuring its availability. Recently, a flexible subset data aggregation (FSDA) scheme based on the Paillier homomorphic encryption was first proposed by Zhang et al. Their scheme can dynamically adjust the size of each subset and obtain the aggregated data in the corresponding subset. In this paper, firstly, an efficient attack with both theorems proving and experimentative verification is… More >

    A Survey of Privacy Preservation for Deep Learning Applications

    Ling Zhang1,*, Lina Nie1, Leyan Yu2

    Journal of Information Hiding and Privacy Protection, Vol.4, No.2, pp. 69-78, 2022, DOI:10.32604/jihpp.2022.039284

    Abstract Deep learning is widely used in artificial intelligence fields such as computer vision, natural language recognition, and intelligent robots. With the development of deep learning, people’s expectations for this technology are increasing daily. Enterprises and individuals usually need a lot of computing power to support the practical work of deep learning technology. Many cloud service providers provide and deploy cloud computing environments. However, there are severe risks of privacy leakage when transferring data to cloud service providers and using data for model training, which makes users unable to use deep learning technology in cloud computing environments confidently. This paper mainly… More >

    Asymmetric Consortium Blockchain and Homomorphically Polynomial-Based PIR for Secured Smart Parking Systems

    T. Haritha, A. Anitha*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.75, No.2, pp. 3923-3939, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.036278

    Abstract In crowded cities, searching for the availability of parking lots is a herculean task as it results in the wastage of drivers’ time, increases air pollution, and traffic congestion. Smart parking systems facilitate the drivers to determine the information about the parking lot in real time and book them depending on the requirement. But the existing smart parking systems necessitate the drivers to reveal their sensitive information that includes their mobile number, personal identity, and desired destination. This disclosure of sensitive information makes the existing centralized smart parking systems more vulnerable to service providers’ security breaches, single points of failure,… More >

    Secured Framework for Assessment of Chronic Kidney Disease in Diabetic Patients

    Sultan Mesfer Aldossary*

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.36, No.3, pp. 3387-3404, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.035249

    Abstract With the emergence of cloud technologies, the services of healthcare systems have grown. Simultaneously, machine learning systems have become important tools for developing matured and decision-making computer applications. Both cloud computing and machine learning technologies have contributed significantly to the success of healthcare services. However, in some areas, these technologies are needed to provide and decide the next course of action for patients suffering from diabetic kidney disease (DKD) while ensuring privacy preservation of the medical data. To address the cloud data privacy problem, we proposed a DKD prediction module in a framework using cloud computing services and a data… More >

    PoQ-Consensus Based Private Electricity Consumption Forecasting via Federated Learning

    Yiqun Zhu1, Shuxian Sun1, Chunyu Liu1, Xinyi Tian1, Jingyi He2, Shuai Xiao2,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.136, No.3, pp. 3285-3297, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.026691

    Abstract With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and computer technology, grid corporations have also begun to move towards comprehensive intelligence and informatization. However, data-based informatization can bring about the risk of privacy exposure of fine-grained information such as electricity consumption data. The modeling of electricity consumption data can help grid corporations to have a more thorough understanding of users’ needs and their habits, providing better services for users. Nevertheless, users’ electricity consumption data is sensitive and private. In order to achieve highly efficient analysis of massive private electricity consumption data without direct access, a blockchain-based federated learning method is proposed… More >

    Enhanced Clustering Based OSN Privacy Preservation to Ensure k-Anonymity, t-Closeness, l-Diversity, and Balanced Privacy Utility

    Rupali Gangarde1,2,*, Amit Sharma3, Ambika Pawar4

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.75, No.1, pp. 2171-2190, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.035559

    Abstract Online Social Networks (OSN) sites allow end-users to share a great deal of information, which may also contain sensitive information, that may be subject to commercial or non-commercial privacy attacks. As a result, guaranteeing various levels of privacy is critical while publishing data by OSNs. The clustering-based solutions proved an effective mechanism to achieve the privacy notions in OSNs. But fixed clustering limits the performance and scalability. Data utility degrades with increased privacy, so balancing the privacy utility trade-off is an open research issue. The research has proposed a novel privacy preservation model using the enhanced clustering mechanism to overcome… More >

    Computer Forensics Framework for Efficient and Lawful Privacy-Preserved Investigation

    Waleed Halboob1,*, Jalal Almuhtadi1,2

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.45, No.2, pp. 2071-2092, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.024110

    Abstract Privacy preservation (PP) in Digital forensics (DF) is a conflicted and non-trivial issue. Existing solutions use the searchable encryption concept and, as a result, are not efficient and support only a keyword search. Moreover, the collected forensic data cannot be analyzed using existing well-known digital tools. This research paper first investigates the lawful requirements for PP in DF based on the organization for economic co-operation and development OECB) privacy guidelines. To have an efficient investigation process and meet the increased volume of data, the presented framework is designed based on the selective imaging concept and advanced encryption standard (AES).

    Walid El-Shafai1,2, Hayam A. Abd El-Hameed3, Noha A. El-Hag4, Ashraf A. M. Khalaf3, Naglaa F. Soliman5, Hussah Nasser AlEisa6,*, Fathi E. Abd El-Samie1

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.36, No.1, pp. 719-732, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.031079

    Abstract Nowadays, the security of images or information is very important. This paper introduces a proposed hybrid watermarking and encryption technique for increasing medical image security. First, the secret medical image is encrypted using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. Then, the secret report of the patient is embedded into the encrypted secret medical image with the Least Significant Bit (LSB) watermarking algorithm. After that, the encrypted secret medical image with the secret report is concealed in a cover medical image, using Kekre’s Median Codebook Generation (KMCG) algorithm. Afterwards, the stego-image obtained is split into 16 parts. Finally, it is sent to… More >

    Slicing-Based Enhanced Method for Privacy-Preserving in Publishing Big Data

    Mohammed BinJubier1, Mohd Arfian Ismail1, Abdulghani Ali Ahmed2,*, Ali Safaa Sadiq3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.72, No.2, pp. 3665-3686, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.024663

    Abstract Publishing big data and making it accessible to researchers is important for knowledge building as it helps in applying highly efficient methods to plan, conduct, and assess scientific research. However, publishing and processing big data poses a privacy concern related to protecting individuals’ sensitive information while maintaining the usability of the published data. Several anonymization methods, such as slicing and merging, have been designed as solutions to the privacy concerns for publishing big data. However, the major drawback of merging and slicing is the random permutation procedure, which does not always guarantee complete protection against attribute or membership disclosure. Moreover,… More >
