Abstract EN
Current file storage service models for cloud servers assume that users either belong to single layer with different privileges or cannot authorize privileges iteratively.
Thus, the access control is not fine-grained and flexible.
Besides, most access control methods at cloud servers mainly rely on computationally intensive cryptographic algorithms and, especially, may not be able to support highly dynamic ad hoc groups with addition and removal of group members.
In this paper, we propose a scheme called F2AC, which is a lightweight, fine-grained, and flexible access control scheme for file storage in mobile cloud computing.
F2AC can not only achieve iterative authorization, authentication with tailored policies, and access control for dynamically changing accessing groups, but also provide access privilege transition and revocation.
A new access control model called directed tree with linked leaf model is proposed for further implementations in data structures and algorithms.
The extensive analysis is given for justifying the soundness and completeness of F2AC.
