Abstract
Recently, with the development of cloud computing, it has become possible to store and share data in cloud environments; however, there are various security threats in these environments. Attacker can leak stored data and, above all, service providers cannot be trusted completely. Therefore, security technologies guaranteeing that data remains secure when stored in cloud environments are required. To this end, researchers are studying techniques based on CP-ABE. However, vulnerabilities to various security threats remain and some schemes are inefficient. In this paper, we apply CP-ABE to address some of the security threats associated with cloud environments, by ensuring that only authorized users can access data stored in the cloud. In addition, we propose an access control system that, in comparison to existing schemes, is more computationally efficient when attributes are revoked.
