CIRCUIT CIPHERTEXT-POLICY ATTRIBUTE-BASED HYBRID ENCRYPTION
WITH VERIFIABLE DELEGATION IN CLOUD COMPUTING
ABSTRACT
In the cloud, for achieving access control and keeping data confidential, the data owners
could adopt attribute-based encryption to encrypt the stored data. Users with limited computing
power are however more likely to delegate the mask of the decryption task to the cloud servers to
reduce the computing cost. As a result, attribute-based encryption with delegation emerges. Still,
there are caveats and questions remaining in the previous relevant works. For instance, during
the delegation, the cloud servers could tamper or replace the delegated ciphertext and respond a
forged computing result with malicious intent. They may also cheat the eligible users by
responding them that they are ineligible for the purpose of cost saving. Furthermore, during the
encryption, the access policies may not be flexible enough as well. Since policy for general
circuits enables to achieve the strongest form of access control, a construction for realizing
circuit ciphertext-policy attribute-based hybrid encryption with verifiable delegation has been
considered in our work. In such a system, combined with verifiable computation and encrypt-
then-mac mechanism, the data confidentiality, the fine-grained access control and the correctness
of the delegated computing results are well guaranteed at the same time. Besides, our scheme
achieves security against chosen-plaintext attacks under the k-multilinear Decisional Diffie-
Hellman assumption. Moreover, an extensive simulation campaign confirms the feasibility and
efficiency of the proposed solution.

EXISTING SYSTEM:
The cloud servers could tamper or replace the delegated ciphertext and respond a forged
computing result with malicious intent. They may also cheat the eligible users by responding
them that they are ineligible for the purpose of cost saving. Furthermore, during the encryption,
the access policies may not be flexible enough as well.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
proposed scheme is proven to be secure based on k-multilinear Decisional Diffie-
Hellman assumption. On the other hand, we implement our scheme over the integers. The costs
of the computation and communication consumption show that the scheme is practical in the
cloud computing. Thus, we could apply it to ensure the data confidentiality, the fine-grained
access control and the verifiable delegation in cloud. Since policy for general circuits enables to
achieve the strongest form of access control, a construction for realizing circuit ciphertext-policy
attribute-based hybrid encryption with verifiable delegation has been considered in our work. In
such a system, combined with verifiable computation and encrypt-then-mac mechanism, the data
confidentiality, the fine-grained access control and the correctness of the delegated computing
results are well guaranteed at the same time. Besides, our scheme achieves
security against chosen-plaintext attacks under the k-multilinear Decisional Diffie-Hellman
assumption

Cloud Storage
Cloud storage is a model of data storage where the digital data is stored in logical
pools, the physical storage spans multiple servers (and often locations), and the physical
environment is typically owned and managed by a hosting company. These cloud
storage providers are responsible for keeping the data available and accessible, and the
physical environment protected and running. People and organizations buy or lease
storage capacity from the providers to store end user, organization, or application data.
Security Model
Since we use key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) and authenticated encryption
(AE) to build our hybrid VD-CPABE scheme, we describe the security definition
separately at first. The confidentiality property (indistinguishability of encryptions under
selective chosen plaintext attacks (IND-CPA)) required for KEM is captured by the
following games against adversary A. Game.KEM • Init. The adversary gives a
challenge access structure f∗ , where it wishes to be challenged. • Setup. The simulator
runs the Setup algorithm and gives the public parameters PK to the adversary. • KeyGen
Queries I. The adversary makes repeated private key queries corresponding to the sets of
attributes x1, ..., xq1 . We require that ∀i ∈ q1 we have f∗ (xi) = 0.
Encrypt. The simulator encrypts K0 under the structure f∗, random chooses K1 from key
space and flips a random coin b. Then the simulator sends Kb and the ciphertext CK∗ to
the adversary. • KeyGen Queries II. The adversary makes repeated private key queries
corresponding to the sets of attributes xq1 , ..., xq where f∗(x) = 0. • Guess. The
adversary outputs a guess b′ of b. We define the advantage of an adversary A in this
game is Pr[b′ = b] − 1 2 . Then a KEM scheme is secure against selective chosen
plaintext attacks if the advantage is negligible. The confidentiality property
(indistinguishability of encryptions under selective chosen ciphertext attacks (IND-
CCA)) required for AE is captured by the following games against adversary A.

Game.AE • Init. The adversary submits two equal length messages M0 and M1. • Setup.
The simulator runs the Setup algorithm and generators the symmetric key KAE. •
Encrypt. The simulator flips a random coin b, encrypts Mb under the symmetric key
KAE, generates the ciphertext C∗ and gives it to the adversary. • Decrypt Queries. The
adversary makes repeated decryption queries. When the given ciphertext C ̸= C∗, the
simulator will return DKAE(C) and σKAE(C) to the adversary.
Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption
In this section, we present the definition and security model of our hybrid VD-CPABE.
In such a system, a circuit ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption scheme, a symmetric
encryption scheme and an encrypt-then-mac mechanism are applied to ensure the
confidentiality, the fine-grained access control and the verifiable delegation
A hybrid VD-CPABE scheme is defined by a tuple of algorithms (Setup, Hybrid-Encrypt,
Key- Gen, Transform, Verify-Decrypt). The description of each algorithm is as follows. •
Setup(λ, n, l). Executed by the authority, this algorithm takes as input a security parameter λ,
the number of attributes n and the maximum depth l of a circuit. It outputs the public
parameters PK and a master key MK which is kept secret. more information. This article has

Hybrid encryption
Hybrid encryption. Cramer and Shoup proposed the generic KEM/DEM
construction for hybrid encryption which can encrypt messages of arbitrary length.
Based on their ingenious work, a one-time MAC were combined with symmetric
encryption to develop the KEM/DEM model for hybrid encryption Such improved
model has the advantage of achieving higher security requirements. ABE with Verifiable
Delegation. Since the introduction of ABE, there have been advances in multiple
directions. The application of outsourcing computation is one of an important direction.
Green et aldesigned the first ABE with outsourced decryption scheme to reduce the
computation cost during decryption. After that, Lai et al. proposed the definition of ABE
with verifiable outsourced decryption. They seek to guarantee the correctness of the
original ciphertext by using a commitment. However, since the data owner generates a
commitment without any secret value about his identity, the untrusted server can then
forge a commitment for a message he chooses. Thus the ciphertext relating to the
message is at risk of being tampered. Further more, just modify the commitments for the
ciphertext relating to the message is not enough. The cloud server can deceive the user
with proper permissions by responding the terminator ⊥ to cheat that he/she is not
allowed to access to the data.
Email Authentication:
Email authentication is a collection of techniques aimed at equipping messages of the
email transport system with verifiable information. It is a coarse-grained authentication,

usually at Administrative Management Domain (ADMD) level, and implies no sort of
authorization. That is, the purpose of email authentication is to validate the identities of the
parties who participated in transferring a message, as they can modify the message. The
results of such validation can then be used in delivery decisions, which are beyond the scope
of email authentication proper, and are quite different in nature from
If you're receiving mail
Recipients can use authentication to verify the source of an incoming message and avoid
phishing scams. For example, if you see messages claiming to be from google.com, but are not
properly authenticated as coming from google.com, these are phishing messages. You should not
enter or send any personal information. Remember, Google will never ask you to send personal
information
