ABSTRACT

Data access control is a challenging issue in public cloud storage systems. Cipher text- policy attribute-
based encryption (CP-ABE) has been adopted as a promising technique to provide flexible, fine-grained,
and secure data access control for cloud storage with honest-but- curious cloud servers. However, in the
existing CP-ABE schemes, the single attribute authority must execute the time-consuming user legitimacy
verification and secret key distribution, and hence, it results in a single-point performance bottleneck
when a CP-ABE scheme is adopted in a large-scale cloud storage system. Users may be stuck in the waiting
queue for a long period to obtain their secret keys, thereby resulting in low efficiency of the system.
Although multiauthority access control schemes have been proposed, these schemes still cannot
overcome the drawbacks of single-point bottleneck and low efficiency, due to the fact that each of the
authorities still independently manages a disjoint attribute set. In this project, we propose a novel
heterogeneous framework to remove the problem of single-point performance bottleneck and provide a
more efficient access control scheme with an auditing mechanism. Our framework employs multiple
attribute authorities to share the load of user legitimacy verification.

Meanwhile, in our scheme, a central authority is introduced to generate secret keys for legitimacy verified
users. Unlike other multi-authority access control schemes, each of the authorities our scheme manages
the whole attribute set individually. To enhance security, we also propose an auditing mechanism to
detect which attribute authority has incorrectly or maliciously performed the legitimacy verification
procedure. Analysis shows that our system not only guarantees the security requirements but also makes
great performance improvement on key generation.
