Novel lightweight and fine-grained fast access control using RNS properties in fog computing

Abstract

Fog computing provides a suitable development for real-time processing in the Internet of Things (IoT). Attribute-based encryption (ABE) is the main method to control data access in fog computing. A residue number system (RNS) can speed up multiplication and exponential operations by converting very large integers to small integers. This paper proposes a fine-grained lightweight access control scheme using ABE modified with RNS properties (RNS-ABE) with fog computing. Decryption is implemented with the Chinese remainder theorem (CRT), and a new access structure based on the CRT secret sharing scheme is also introduced. Security of the proposed scheme proved based on RNS properties and the complicated problem of factoring a very large integer into its large prime factors, like RSA encryption. The time cost comparison shows that the total encryption and decryption time of our scheme is more efficient than the lightweight schemes with the underlying operation of bilinear pairing.
