An Efficient Privacy-Preserving Publish-Subscribe Service Scheme for Cloud Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing provides a novel computing paradigm for enterprises to store programs and data in the Cloud in a transparent manner, which poses the challenge of security and privacy. In this paper, based on homomorphic cryptography and Zero-Knowledge Proof, we present a novel privacy-preserving scheme for Cloud publish/subscribe service, which achieve efficient privacy-preserving authentication, data integrity, and publish-subscribe confidentiality. The performance evaluation and security analysis demonstrate the practice and validity of the proposed scheme.
