In this paper, we propose a secure data sharing scheme in 0SNs based on ciphertext-policy attribute- based proxy re-encryption and secret sharing. In order to protect users＇ sensitive data, our scheme allows users to customize access policies of their data and then outsource encrypted data to the OSNs service provider. Our scheme presents a multiparty access control model, which enables the disseminator to update the access policy of ciphertext if their attributes satisfy the existing access policy. Further, we present a partial decryption construction in which the computation overhead of user is largely reduced by delegating most of the decryption operations to the OSNs service provider. We also provide checkability on the results returned from the OSNs service provider to guarantee the correctness of partial decrypted ciphertext. Moreover, our scheme presents an efficient attribute revocation method that achieves both forward and backward secrecy. The security and performance analysis results indicate that the proposed scheme is secure and efficient in OSNs.展开更多

Malicious software can stop MAC systems to be started and make it do invalid. This problem cannot be solved under the traditional framework if the operating system(OS) is comprised since malwares are running in ring 0 level. In this paper,we propose a novel way to use hypervisors to protect kernel integrity and the access control system in commodity operating systems. We separate the access control system into three parts: policy management(PM),security server(SS) and policy enforcement(PE). Policy management and the security server reside in the security domain to protect them against malware and the isolation feather of the hypervisor can protect them from attacks. We add an access vector cache(AVC) between SS and PE in the guest OS,in order to speed up communication between the guest OS and the security domain. The policy enforcement module is retained in the guest OS for performance. The security of AVC and PE can be ensured by using a memory protection mechanism. The goal of protecting the OS kernel is to ensure the security of the execution path. We implementthe system by a modified Xen hypervisor. The result shows that we can secure the security of the access control system in the guest OS with no overhead compared with modules in the latter. Our system offers a centralized security policy for virtual domains in virtual machine environments.Keywords: hypervisor; virtualization; memo-展开更多
