Resilient Access Control Based on Cloud Serves for Preserving Privacy in Smart Grid
摘要
This paper addresses the issue of data security access control in smart grids under a cloud-based service framework, focusing on overcoming the limitations of existing security protocols that rely on single-key authorization and lack bidirectional legitimacy verification. To fill these research gaps, a novel dual privacy-preserving access control framework is proposed. First, a ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) mechanism is developed with an access-tree structure to enable fine-grained authorization and efficient encryption/decryption. Second, a privacy-preserving scalar product computing (PPSPC) protocol is designed to perform dual legitimacy verification by masking attribute vectors, thereby protecting both user and grid data privacy. Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed scheme: the standard error of encryption time decreases by about 18%, the average decryption time is reduced by 201 ms (
