A Privacy-Preserving Outsourcing Data Storage Scheme with Fragile Digital Watermarking-Based Data Auditing

الملخص EN

Cloud storage has been recognized as the popular solution to solve the problems of the rising storage costs of IT enterprises for users.

However, outsourcing data to the cloud service providers (CSPs) may leak some sensitive privacy information, as the data is out of user’s control.

So how to ensure the integrity and privacy of outsourced data has become a big challenge.

Encryption and data auditing provide a solution toward the challenge.

In this paper, we propose a privacy-preserving and auditing-supporting outsourcing data storage scheme by using encryption and digital watermarking.

Logistic map-based chaotic cryptography algorithm is used to preserve the privacy of outsourcing data, which has a fast operation speed and a good effect of encryption.

Local histogram shifting digital watermark algorithm is used to protect the data integrity which has high payload and makes the original image restored losslessly if the data is verified to be integrated.

Experiments show that our scheme is secure and feasible.
