Secure Data Deduplication With Reliable Key Management for Dynamic Updates in CPSS

With the increasing sensing and communication in cyber physical social system (CPSS), the data volume is growing much rapidly in recent years. Secure deduplication has attracted considerable interests of storage provider for data management efficiency and data privacy preserving. One of the most challenging issues in secure deduplication is how to manage data and the convergent key when users frequently update it. To solve this problem, D. Koo et al. use bilinear paring as the key method. However, bilinear paring requires high computation cost for implementations. In this paper, we propose a session-key-based convergent key management scheme, named SKC, to secure the dynamic update in the data deduplication. Specifically, each data owner in SKC can verify the correctness of the session key and dynamically change it with the data update. Furthermore, to enable group combination and remove the aid of gateway (GW), a convergent key sharing scheme, named CKS, is presented. Security analysis demonstrates that both SKC and CKS can protect the confidentiality of the data and the convergent key in the case of dynamic updates. The simulation results show that our SKC and CKS can significantly reduce computation complexity and communication during the data uploading phase.
