Hybrid Cloud Approach for Secure Authorized Reduplication
Data deduplication is one of important
data compression techniques for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data,
andhas been widely used in cloud storage to reduce the amount of storage space
and save bandwidth. To protect the confidentiality of sensitive data while
supporting deduplication, the convergent encryption technique has been proposed
to encrypt the data before outsourcing.
To better protect data security, this paper makes the first
attempt to formally address the problem of authorized data deduplication.
Different from traditional deduplication systems, the differential privileges
of users are further considered in duplicate check besides the data itself. We
also present several new deduplication constructions supporting authorized
duplicate check in a hybrid cloud architecture. Security analysis demonstrates
that our scheme is secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed
security model.
As a proof of concept, we implement a prototype of our proposed
authorized duplicate check scheme and conduct tested experiments using our
prototype. We show that our proposed authorized duplicate check scheme incurs
minimal overhead compared to normal operations.
