Summary: Benefiting from the powerful computing and storage capabilities of cloud services, data sharing in the cloud has been widely used in various applications. However, concerns about data privacy breaches have arisen due to outsourcing data to untrusted cloud. To address this issue, this article proposes an Efficient, Scalable and Privacy-preserving Data sharing framework over encrypted cloud dataset (ESPD). Unlike previous works, ESPD supports sharing target data to multiple users with distinct secret keys and maintains a constant ciphertext length. Security analysis and real-world experiments demonstrate the desirable performance of ESPD compared to other similar schemes.

Summary: Cloud computing relies on massive storage and computing capabilities, making secure data sharing crucial. Recent IB-BPRE schemes aim to address this, but involve users in the complex key sharing process. To simplify this, a new RIB-BPRE scheme allows proxies to revoke specific users from the re-encryption key, making it efficient and practical.

Summary: The cooperative works between connected smart devices in the IIoT have greatly improved productivity and economics for the conventional industry. However, the introduction of the communication network also brings unprecedented cyber threats to the budding IIoT. To address this, an efficient and fully secure data sharing work called DS-SRL is proposed, which enables flexible access control and direct revocation approach for handling potential security issues. The DS-SRL scheme has the advantages of low computational and dissemination costs, high flexibility, scalability, and security, making it suitable for IIoT applications. Detailed performance evaluation confirms the feasibility, efficiency, and effectiveness of the DS-SRL work.

Summary: With the increasing adoption of IoT in people's lives, the limitations of traditional medical systems, such as privacy disclosure and system isolation, are becoming evident. To address these issues, we propose a privacy-preserving medical data-sharing scheme based on blockchain with an authorization mechanism and attribute-based encryption. Our scheme breaks system boundaries and facilitates data sharing among multiple medical institutions. We also provide a prototype tool implemented on Ethereum, showing that our scheme effectively balances medical data privacy and the need for data sharing.

Summary: As IoT services become more advanced, data sharing among different IoT systems is increasingly popular. To address the trust and security challenges faced by traditional IoT systems that rely on central clouds for data storage and access, we propose a multicenter data management framework based on blockchain to create a trusted environment for data sharing. We also introduce an attribute-based encryption algorithm that can be used for multicenter scenarios and shift the data management to blockchain instead of a central server. Additionally, we design an obfuscating policy to offload encryption computations to the cloud, reducing the computational burden on IoT devices.

Summary: Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is changing traditional industries with the development of big data and deep learning. However, the lack of large-scale datasets can lead to performance issues and data leakage. Privacy-preserving federated learning schemes have been proposed, but security issues remain. In this article, the security of a scheme called DeepPAR is analyzed and an improved scheme is proposed to address the security vulnerabilities. Performance analysis illustrates the security and accuracy of the improved scheme.
