Abstract

Security is one of the major challenges in the field of sensor cloud. There is a need to implement security over sensor cloud using a technique which involves fine-grained access in virtualized wireless sensor networks. The existing security model to secure the data transmission and stored data at the sensor-cloud environment uses different encryption techniques, but its effectiveness, efficiency, and performance can be further increased. Earlier approaches provided fine-grained access such as Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) which involves some complex computations. In this paper, we proposed a security model based on Elliptic Curve Encryption (ECC) and attributes to ensure the overall security of sensor data that guarantees the confidentiality and integrity. It also provides a fine-grained access control. The proposed approach reduces the overall computational overhead as compared to other existing approaches.
