摘要
In cloud computing,various organisations store their confidential information in private or pub-lic cloud platforms.The data sharing through the various cloud platforms increases the risk of security.To attain data sharing while sustaining data confidentiality,a secure sharing platform and collaboration model is needed.Hence,this paper introduces the novel secure authenti-cation and collaborative data sharing(SecAuth_CDS)scheme for sharing data on blockchain.The entities involved in the SecAuth_CDS are third parties,data owners,smart contracts and blockchain networks.The security of the authentication process can be boosted by applying various security operations,such as Exclusive OR(EXOR),hashing,encryption and so on.The proposed method assures that the sharing is secure and trustworthy by blockchain.The experi-mental result reveals that the SecAuth_CDS performed effectively in terms of revenue,memory usage and computation cost with the values of 27,62.20 MB and 0.003 sec.
