Abstract:

With the cloud computing technology, users do not need to deploy hardware and software facilities, which thus saves local storage costs for users. Once the data is outsourced to the cloud storage server, it is out of control from its owner. To protect the integrity of outsourced data, data owner is able to designate an auditor to perform integrity auditing. This paper presents a secure cloud storage scheme with designated auditor in bilinear groups, which requires the designated auditor to use his private key in verifying the response from the cloud storage server in the integrity auditing phase, in this way to determine the integrity of outsourced data. Moreover, the case of two designated auditors is considered, that is, the data owner designates two expected auditors in the data processing phase, such that each auditor does not need to interact with the other in performing integrity auditing. Security and performance analyses show that the proposed schemes are secure and efficient.
