Tag-t（EM is one of its parts by using public-key encryption （PKE） technique to encapsulate a symmetric key. In hybrid encryptions, the long-raessage PKE is not desired due to its slow operation. A general method is presented for constructing Tag-KEM schemes with short-message PKEs. The chosen ciphertext security is proved in the random oracle model.

Hadoop is susceptible to possible cyber-attacks because it lacks built-in security measures, even though it can effectively handle and store enormous datasets using the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). The increasing number of data breaches emphasizes how urgently creative encryption techniques are needed in cloud-based big data settings. This paper presents Adaptive Attribute-Based Honey Encryption (AABHE), a state-of-the-art technique that combines honey encryption with Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) to provide improved data security. Even if intercepted, AABHE makes sure that sensitive data cannot be accessed by unauthorized parties. With a focus on protecting huge files in HDFS, the suggested approach achieves 98% security robustness and 95% encryption efficiency, outperforming other encryption methods including Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE), Key-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (KB-ABE), and Advanced Encryption Standard combined with Attribute-Based Encryption (AES+ABE). By fixing Hadoop’s security flaws, AABHE fortifies its protections against data breaches and enhances Hadoop’s dependability as a platform for processing and storing massive amounts of data.展开更多

文摘This paper introduces a novel lightweight colour image encryption algorithm,specifically designed for resource-constrained environments such as Internet of Things(IoT)devices.As IoT systems become increasingly prevalent,secure and efficient data transmission becomes crucial.The proposed algorithm addresses this need by offering a robust yet resource-efficient solution for image encryption.Traditional image encryption relies on confusion and diffusion steps.These stages are generally implemented linearly,but this work introduces a new RSP(Random Strip Peeling)algorithm for the confusion step,which disrupts linearity in the lightweight category by using two different sequences generated by the 1D Tent Map with varying initial conditions.The diffusion stage then employs an XOR matrix generated by the Logistic Map.Different evaluation metrics,such as entropy analysis,key sensitivity,statistical and differential attacks resistance,and robustness analysis demonstrate the proposed algorithm's lightweight,robust,and efficient.The proposed encryption scheme achieved average metric values of 99.6056 for NPCR,33.4397 for UACI,and 7.9914 for information entropy in the SIPI image dataset.It also exhibits a time complexity of O(2×M×N)for an image of size M×N.

文摘As data analysis often incurs significant communication and computational costs,these tasks are increasingly outsourced to cloud computing platforms.However,this introduces privacy concerns,as sensitive data must be transmitted to and processed by untrusted parties.To address this,fully homomorphic encryption(FHE)has emerged as a promising solution for privacy-preserving Machine-Learning-as-a-Service(MLaaS),enabling computation on encrypted data without revealing the plaintext.Nevertheless,FHE remains computationally expensive.As a result,approximate homomorphic encryption(AHE)schemes,such as CKKS,have attracted attention due to their efficiency.In our previous work,we proposed RP-OKC,a CKKS-based clustering scheme implemented via TenSEAL.However,errors inherent to CKKS operations—termed CKKS-errors—can affect the accuracy of the result after decryption.Since these errors can be mitigated through post-decryption rounding,we propose a data pre-scaling technique to increase the number of significant digits and reduce CKKS-errors.Furthermore,we introduce an Operation-Error-Estimation(OEE)table that quantifies upper-bound error estimates for various CKKS operations.This table enables error-aware decryption correction,ensuring alignment between encrypted and plaintext results.We validate our method on K-means clustering using the Kaggle Customer Segmentation dataset.Experimental results confirm that the proposed scheme enhances the accuracy and reliability of privacy-preserving data analysis in cloud environments.

文摘Data compression plays a vital role in datamanagement and information theory by reducing redundancy.However,it lacks built-in security features such as secret keys or password-based access control,leaving sensitive data vulnerable to unauthorized access and misuse.With the exponential growth of digital data,robust security measures are essential.Data encryption,a widely used approach,ensures data confidentiality by making it unreadable and unalterable through secret key control.Despite their individual benefits,both require significant computational resources.Additionally,performing them separately for the same data increases complexity and processing time.Recognizing the need for integrated approaches that balance compression ratios and security levels,this research proposes an integrated data compression and encryption algorithm,named IDCE,for enhanced security and efficiency.Thealgorithmoperates on 128-bit block sizes and a 256-bit secret key length.It combines Huffman coding for compression and a Tent map for encryption.Additionally,an iterative Arnold cat map further enhances cryptographic confusion properties.Experimental analysis validates the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm,showcasing competitive performance in terms of compression ratio,security,and overall efficiency when compared to prior algorithms in the field.

文摘Ensuring information security in the quantum era is a growing challenge due to advancements in cryptographic attacks and the emergence of quantum computing.To address these concerns,this paper presents the mathematical and computer modeling of a novel two-dimensional(2D)chaotic system for secure key generation in quantum image encryption(QIE).The proposed map employs trigonometric perturbations in conjunction with rational-saturation functions and hence,named as Trigonometric-Rational-Saturation(TRS)map.Through rigorous mathematical analysis and computational simulations,the map is extensively evaluated for bifurcation behaviour,chaotic trajectories,and Lyapunov exponents.The security evaluation validates the map’s non-linearity,unpredictability,and sensitive dependence on initial conditions.In addition,the proposed TRS map has further been tested by integrating it in a QIE scheme.The QIE scheme first quantum-encodes the classic image using the Novel Enhanced Quantum Representation(NEQR)technique,the TRS map is used for the generation of secure diffusion key,which is XOR-ed with the quantum-ready image to obtain the encrypted images.The security evaluation of the QIE scheme demonstrates superior security of the encrypted images in terms of statistical security attacks and also against Differential attacks.The encrypted images exhibit zero correlation and maximum entropy with demonstrating strong resilience due to 99.62%and 33.47%results for Number of Pixels Change Rate(NPCR)and Unified Average Changing Intensity(UACI).The results validate the effectiveness of TRS-based quantum encryption scheme in securing digital images against emerging quantum threats,making it suitable for secure image encryption in IoT and edge-based applications.

文摘A basic procedure for transforming readable data into encoded forms is encryption, which ensures security when the right decryption keys are used. Hadoop is susceptible to possible cyber-attacks because it lacks built-in security measures, even though it can effectively handle and store enormous datasets using the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). The increasing number of data breaches emphasizes how urgently creative encryption techniques are needed in cloud-based big data settings. This paper presents Adaptive Attribute-Based Honey Encryption (AABHE), a state-of-the-art technique that combines honey encryption with Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) to provide improved data security. Even if intercepted, AABHE makes sure that sensitive data cannot be accessed by unauthorized parties. With a focus on protecting huge files in HDFS, the suggested approach achieves 98% security robustness and 95% encryption efficiency, outperforming other encryption methods including Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE), Key-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (KB-ABE), and Advanced Encryption Standard combined with Attribute-Based Encryption (AES+ABE). By fixing Hadoop’s security flaws, AABHE fortifies its protections against data breaches and enhances Hadoop’s dependability as a platform for processing and storing massive amounts of data.

文摘With the rapid development of holographic technology,metasurface-based holographic communication schemes have demonstrated immense potential for electromagnetic(EM)multifunctionality.However,traditional passive metasurfaces are severely limited by their lack of reconfigurability,hindering the realization of versatile holographic applications.Origami,an art form that mechanically induces spatial deformations,serves as a platform for multifunctional devices and has garnered significant attention in optics,physics,and materials science.The Miura-ori folding paradigm,characterized by its continuous reconfigurability in folded states,remains unexplored in the context of holographic imaging.Herein,we integrate the principles of Rosenfeld with L-and D-metal chiral enantiomers on a Miura-ori surface to tailor the aperture distribution.Leveraging the continuously tunable nature of the Miura-ori's folded states,the chiral response of the metallic structures varies across different folding configurations,enabling distinct EM holographic imaging functionalities.In the planar state,holographic encryption is achieved.Under specific folding conditions and driven by spin circularly polarized(CP)waves at a particular frequency,multiplexed holographic images can be reconstructed on designated focal planes with CP selectivity.Notably,the fabricated origami metasurface exhibits a large negative Poisson ratio,facilitating portability and deployment and offering novel avenues for spin-selective systems,camouflage,and information encryption.

文摘Ln-containing polyoxoniobates(PONbs)have appealing applications in luminescence,information encryption and magnetic fields,but the synthesis of PONbs containing high-nuclearity Ln-O clusters is challenging due to the easy hydrolysis of Ln^(3+)ions in alkaline environments.In this paper,we are able to integrate CO_(3)^(2-)and high-nuclearity Ln-O clusters into PONb to construct an inorganic giant Eu_(19)-embedded PONb H_(49)K_(16)Na_(13)(H_(2)O)_(63)[Eu_(21)O_(2)(OH)_(7)(H_(2)O)_(5)(Nb_(7)O_(22))_(10)(Nb_(2)O_(6))_(2)(CO_(3))_(18)]·91H_(2)O(1),which contains the highest nuclearity Eu-O clusters and the largest number of Eu^(3+)ions among PONbs.In addition,the film that was prepared by mixing 1 with gelatin and glycerol,exhibits reversible luminescence switching behavior under acid/alkali stimulation and has been used to create a fluorescence-encoded information approach.This work paves a feasible strategy for the construction of high-nuclearity Ln-O cluster-containing PONbs and the expansion of the application of Ln-containing PONbs in information encryption.

文摘Exploring multiple-level encryption technologies and extra safety decoding ways to prevent information leakage is of great significance and interest,but is still challenging.Herein,we propose a novel approach by developing halloysite-based X-ray-activated persistent luminescent hydrogels with self-healing properties,which can emit visible luminescence even after switching off the X-ray irradiation.The afterglow properties can be well regulated by controlling the crystal form of the anchored nanocrystal on the surface of the halloysite nanotube,enabling the“time-lock”encryption.Additionally,the absence or presence of photoluminescence behaviors can also be controlled by changing the crosslinkers in synthesizing hydrogels.Six types of hydrogels were reported by means of condensation reactions,which show diverse emission and afterglow properties.By taking advantage of these features,the hydrogels were programmed as a display panel that exhibits three types of fake information under the wrong decoding tools.Only when the right stimuli are applied at the defined time does the panel give a readable pattern,allowing the encrypted information to be recognized.We believe this work will pave a novel path in developing extra safety information-encryption materials.
