Discrete exponential operation, such as modular exponentiation and scalar multiplication on elliptic curves, is a basic operation of many public-key cryptosystems. However, the exponential operations are considered prohibitively expensive for resource-constrained mobile devices. In this paper, we address the problem of secure outsourcing of exponentiation operations to one single untrusted server. Our proposed scheme (ExpSOS) only requires very limited number of modular multiplications at local mobile environment thus it can achieve impressive computational gain. ExpSOS also provides a secure verification scheme with probability approximately 1 to ensure that the mobile end-users can always receive valid results. The comprehensive analysis as well as the simulation results in real mobile device demonstrates that our proposed ExpSOS can significantly improve the existing schemes in efficiency, security and result verifiability. We apply ExpSOS to securely outsource several cryptographic protocols to show that ExpSOS is widely applicable to many cryptographic computations.

With the support of cloud computing, large quantities of data collected from various WSN applications can be managed efficiently. However, maintaining data security and efficiency of data processing in cloud-WSN (C-WSN) are important and challenging issues. In this paper, we present an efficient data outsourcing scheme based on CP-ABE, which can not only guarantee secure data access, but also reduce overall data processing time. In our proposed scheme, a large file is divided into several data blocks by data owner (DO) firstly. Then, the data blocks are encrypted and transferred to the cloud server in parallel. For data receiver (DR), data decryption and data transmission is also processed in parallel. In addition, data integrity can be checked by DR without any master key components. The security analysis shows that the proposed scheme can meet the security requirement of C-WSN. By performance evaluation, it shows that our scheme can dramatically improve data processing efficiency compared to the traditional CP-ABE method.
Cloud computing has become an irreversible trend. Together comes the pressing need for verifiability, to assure the client the correctness of computation outsourced to the cloud. Existing verifiable computation techniques all have a high overhead, th us if being deployed in the clouds, would render cloud computing more expensive than the on-premises counterpart. To achieve verifiability at a reasonable cost, we leverage game theory and propose a smart contract based solution. In a nutshell, a client lets two clouds compute the same task, and uses smart contracts to stimulate tension, betrayal and distrust between the clouds, so that rational clouds will not collude and cheat. In the absence of collusion, verification of correctness can be done easily by crosschecking the results from the two clouds. We provide a formal analysis of the games induced by the contracts, and prove that the contracts will be effective under certain reasonable assumptions. By resorting to game theory and smart contracts, we are able to avoid heavy cryptographic protocols. The client only needs to pay two clouds to compute in the clear, and a small transaction fee to use the smart contracts. We also conducted a feasibility study that involves implementing the contracts in Solidity and running them on the official Ethereum network.

Recently, Wang et al. [IEEE INFOCOM 2011, 820-828], and Nie et al. [IEEE AINA 2014, 591-596] have proposed two schemes for secure outsourcing of large-scale linear programming (LP). They did not consider the standard form: minimize c^{T}x, subject to Ax=b, x>0. Instead, they studied a peculiar form: minimize c^{T}x, subject to Ax = b, Bx>0, where B is a non-singular matrix. In this note, we stress that the proposed peculiar form is unsolvable and meaningless. The two schemes have confused the functional inequality constraints Bx>0 with the nonnegativity constraints x>0 in the linear programming model. But the condition x>0 is indispensable to the simplex method. Therefore, both two schemes failed.

We show that the verifying equations in the scheme [Theoretical Computer Science, 562 (2015), 112-121] cannot filter out some malformed values returned by the malicious servers. We also remark that the two untrusted programs model adopted in the sche me is somewhat artificial, and discuss some reasonable scenarios for outsourcing computations.

Cloud computing offers resource-constrained users big-volume data storage and energy-consuming complicated computation. However, owing to the lack of full trust in the cloud, the cloud users prefer privacy-preserving outsourced data computation with correctness verification. However, cryptography-based schemes introduce high computational costs to both the cloud and its users for verifiable computation with privacy preservation, which makes it difficult to support complicated computations in practice. Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) as a trusted execution environment is widely researched in various fields (such as secure data analytics and computation), and is regarded as a promising way to achieve efficient outsourced data computation with privacy preservation over the cloud. But we find two types of threats towards the computation with SGX: Disarranging Data-Related Code threat and Output Tampering and Misrouting threat. In this paper, we depict these threats using formal methods and successfully conduct the two threats on the enclave program constructed by Rust SGX SDK to demonstrate their impacts on the correctness of computations over SGX enclaves. In order to provide countermeasures, we propose an efficient and secure scheme to resist the threats and realize verifiable computation for Intel SGX. We prove the security and show the efficiency and correctness of our proposed scheme through theoretic analysis and extensive experiments. Furthermore, we compare the performance of our scheme with that of some cryptography-based schemes to show its high efficiency.
