Searching for available parking spaces is a major problem for drivers especially in big crowded cities, causing traffic congestion and air pollution, and wasting drivers time. Smart parking systems are a novel solution to enable drivers to have real-time parking information for pre-booking. However, current smart parking requires drivers to disclose their private information, such as desired destinations. Moreover, the existing schemes are centralized and vulnerable to the bottleneck of the single point of failure and data breaches. In this paper, we propose a distributed privacy-preserving smart parking system using blockchain. A consortium blockchain created by different parking lot owners to ensure security, transparency, and availability is proposed to store their parking offers on the blockchain. To preserve drivers location privacy, we adopt a private information retrieval (PIR) technique to enable drivers to retrieve parking offers from blockchain nodes privately, without revealing which parking offers are retrieved. Furthermore, a short randomizable signature is used to enable drivers to reserve available parking slots in an anonymous manner. Besides, we introduce an anonymous payment system that cannot link drivers to specific parking locations. Finally, our performance evaluations demonstrate that the proposed scheme can preserve drivers privacy with low communication and computation overhead.

Logistics Information System (LIS) is an interactive system that provides information for logistics managers to monitor and track logistics business. In recent years, with the rise of online shopping, LIS is becoming increasingly important. However,
since the lack of effective protection of personal information, privacy protection issue has become the most problem concerned by users. Some data breach events in LIS released users personal information, including address, phone number, transaction details, etc. In this paper, to protect users privacy in LIS, a privacy-preserving LIS with traceability (PPLIST) is proposed by combining multi-signature with pseudonym. In our PPLIST scheme, to protect privacy, each user can generate and use different pseudonyms in different logistics services. The processing of one logistics is recorded and unforgeable. Additionally, if the logistics information is abnormal, a trace party can de-anonymize users, and find their real identities. Therefore, our PPLIST efficiently balances the relationship between privacy and traceability.
Activity-tracking applications and location-based services using short-range communication (SRC) techniques have been abruptly demanded in the COVID-19 pandemic, especially for automated contact tracing. The attention from both public and policy keep
s raising on related practical problems, including textit{1) how to protect data security and location privacy? 2) how to efficiently and dynamically deploy SRC Internet of Thing (IoT) witnesses to monitor large areas?} To answer these questions, in this paper, we propose a decentralized and permissionless blockchain protocol, named textit{Bychain}. Specifically, 1) a privacy-preserving SRC protocol for activity-tracking and corresponding generalized block structure is developed, by connecting an interactive zero-knowledge proof protocol and the key escrow mechanism. As a result, connections between personal identity and the ownership of on-chain location information are decoupled. Meanwhile, the owner of the on-chain location data can still claim its ownership without revealing the private key to anyone else. 2) An artificial potential field-based incentive allocation mechanism is proposed to incentivize IoT witnesses to pursue the maximum monitoring coverage deployment. We implemented and evaluated the proposed blockchain protocol in the real-world using the Bluetooth 5.0. The storage, CPU utilization, power consumption, time delay, and security of each procedure and performance of activities are analyzed. The experiment and security analysis is shown to provide a real-world performance evaluation.
Energy storage units (ESUs) including EVs and home batteries enable several attractive features of the modern smart grids such as effective demand response and reduced electric bills. However, uncoordinated charging of ESUs stresses the power system.
In this paper, we propose privacy-preserving and collusion-resistant charging coordination centralized and decentralized schemes for the smart grid. The centralized scheme is used in case of robust communication infrastructure that connects the ESUs to the utility, while the decentralized scheme is useful in case of infrastructure not available or costly. In the centralized scheme, each energy storage unit should acquire anonymous tokens from a charging controller (CC) to send multiple charging requests to the CC via the aggregator. CC can use the charging requests to enough data to run the charging coordination scheme, but it cannot link the data to particular ESUs or reveal any private information. Our centralized scheme uses a modified knapsack problem formulation technique to maximize the amount of power delivered to the ESUs before the charging requests expire without exceeding the available maximum charging capacity. In the decentralized scheme, several ESUs run the scheme in a distributed way with no need to aggregator or CC. One ESU is selected as a head node that should decrypt the ciphertext of the aggregated messages of the ESUs messages and broadcast it to the community while not revealing the ESUs individual charging demands. Then, ESUs can coordinate charging requests based on the aggregated charging demand while not exceeding the maximum charging capacity. Extensive experiments and simulations are conducted to demonstrate that our schemes are efficient and secure against various attacks, and can preserve ESU owners privacy.
Privacy preservation is a big concern for various sectors. To protect individual user data, one emerging technology is differential privacy. However, it still has limitations for datasets with frequent queries, such as the fast accumulation of privac
y cost. To tackle this limitation, this paper explores the integration of a secured decentralised ledger, blockchain. Blockchain will be able to keep track of all noisy responses generated with differential privacy algorithm and allow for certain queries to reuse old responses. In this paper, a demo of a proposed blockchain-based privacy management system is designed as an interactive decentralised web application (DApp). The demo created illustrates that leveraging on blockchain will allow the total privacy cost accumulated to decrease significantly.
Permissioned blockchain such as Hyperledger fabric enables a secure supply chain model in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) through multichannel and private data collection mechanisms. Sharing of Industrial data including private data exchange at
every stage between supply chain partners helps to improve product quality, enable future forecast, and enhance management activities. However, the existing data sharing and querying mechanism in Hyperledger fabric is not suitable for supply chain environment in IIoT because the queries are evaluated on actual data stored on ledger which consists of sensitive information such as business secrets, and special discounts offered to retailers and individuals. To solve this problem, we propose a differential privacy-based permissioned blockchain using Hyperledger fabric to enable private data sharing in supply chain in IIoT (DH-IIoT). We integrate differential privacy into the chaindcode (smart contract) of Hyperledger fabric to achieve privacy preservation. As a result, the query response consists of perturbed data which protects the sensitive information in the ledger. The proposed work (DH-IIoT) is evaluated by simulating a permissioned blockchain using Hyperledger fabric. We compare our differential privacy integrated chaincode of Hyperledger fabric with the default chaincode setting of Hyperledger fabric for supply chain scenario. The results confirm that the proposed work maintains 96.15% of accuracy in the shared data while guarantees the protection of sensitive ledgers data.
