A Personal Privacy Data Protection Scheme for Encryption and Revocation of High-Dimensional Attribute Domains.

With the frequent occurrence of private data breaches, it is now more necessary than ever to address how to protect private data. The combination of Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) and blockchain typically enables secure storage and sharing of data. However, in high-dimensional attribute domains, that is, the number of attributes is large, these schemes have issues such as low security of data protection, high computational overhead, and high cost of attribute revocation. This paper proposes a personal privacy data protection scheme for encryption and revocation of high-dimensional attribute domains to address these issues. The proposed scheme is made up of three components. Firstly, Fast High-dimensional Attribute Domain-based Message Encryption (HAD-FME) is proposed to improve data security and reduce computational cost. Secondly, an Attribute Revocation Mechanism Based on Sentry Mode (SM-ARM) is designed in combination with smart contracts. Lastly, a Blockchain-based Model for Personal Privacy Data Protection (BC-PPDP) is proposed by integrating HAD-FME with SM-ARM. The security analysis results show that HAD-FME proposed in this paper is secure under the DLIN assumption, and the attribute revocation satisfies both forward and backward security. Experiments show that HAD-FME has higher computational efficiency than existing schemes in the high-dimensional attribute domains, SM-ARM has lower revocation cost than existing attribute revocation mechanisms, and smart contracts and blockchain work well.
