Abstract

Aiming at the problems of the existing attribute-based collaborative decryption schemes exemplified by failures in cloud storage servers and poor enthusiasm of users for collaborative decryption, a collaborative access control scheme based on incentive mechanisms is proposed. In this scheme, users are divided into different groups and only users of the same group can collaborate to decrypt. The data is encrypted with attribute-based encryption (ABE) and is uploaded to Inter-Planetary File System (IPFS), which not only ensures the confidentiality of data but also prevents malfunctions. Through the incentive mechanism of the blockchain, the user’s enthusiasm of decryption is improved. Finally, the theoretical analysis shows that the scheme is secure and efficient.
