Abstract

In this paper, we propose an ID-based linear homomorphic cryptosystem, which consisted of an ID-based encryption scheme with homomorphic property and a linearly homomorphic signature scheme, where the linearly homomorphic signature scheme is compatible with the privacy-protection data aggregation. Then, we propose a secure and efficient ID-based meter report protocol for the isolated smart grid devices, which can not only protect against unauthorized reading, unintentional errors and maliciously altering messages, but also achieve privacy-preserving for the customers. We provide security analysis of our protocol in context of five typical attacks. The implementation of our protocol on the Intel Edison Platform shows that our protocol is efficient enough for the physical constrained devices, like smart grid devices.

Notes

  1. 1.

    W is pre-computed by reciever, and will be stored in the sender, since the pairing operation is considered as a very time-consuming cryptographic operation. Then, there is no pairing operations in the encryption and signing phase of the sender.

  2. 2.

    W is pre-computed by the ESP and will be stored in the isolated smart grid device, since the pairing operation is considered to be a very time-consuming cryptographic operation. Thus, no pairing operations are performed during the reading phase of the isolated smart grid device.

  3. 3.

    This signature also involves the identity of ESP, which prevent the customer from paying for an improper ESP.
