POEDDP-A FAST RSA-BASED PROOF OF POSSESSION ACCUMULATOR OF DYNAMIC DATA ON THE CLOUD

Abstract

The ease of usage and the convenience of cloud computing come with considerable responsibility. The latter, consists of carefully addressing different security aspects of this technology. The integrity and availability of the outsourced data constitute essential considerations for adopters’ final decisions. However, the most critical factor is the efficiency of integrity checks, which must prioritize restrictedresource data owners without affecting the performance of the Cloud Service Provider. This paper proposes a secure scheme, called Proof of Exponentiation of Dynamic Data Possession PoEDDP based on RSAAccumulators. The proof of concept demonstrates that this scheme is 20 times faster compared to other RSA-based cryptographic accumulator schemes. It could be improved to achieve great results with proper optimizations on the larger integer multiplication side.
