Abstract:

This paper proposes a privacy preserving and access control scheme for fog computing based on attribute-based encryption, and take the Internet of vehicles as an instance to illustrate the implementation framework of the scheme. By deploying the proposed scheme, the data transmitted between fog node and end user is in ciphertext, and only the authorized users or fog nodes can decrypt successfully. The proposed scheme gives data the ability to ensure its security entirely relying on itself, without depending on other third parties, which achieves privacy preserving and flexible access control in fog computing.

Key words: privacy preserving, access control, fog computing, Internet of vehicles, attribute-based encryption
