Abstract
Widespread applications of 5G technology have prompted the outsourcing of computation dominated by the Internet of Things (IoT) cloud to improve transmission efficiency, which has created a novel paradigm for improving the speed of common connected objects in IoT. However, although it makes it easier for ubiquitous resource-constrained equipment that outsources computing tasks to achieve high-speed transmission services, security concerns, such as a lack of reliability and collusion attacks, still exist in the outsourcing computation. In this paper, we propose a reliable, anti-collusion outsourcing computation and verification protocol, which uses distributed storage solutions in response to the issue of centralized storage, leverages homomorphic encryption to deal with outsourcing computation and ensures data privacy. Moreover, we embed outsourcing computation results and a novel polynomial factorization algorithm into the smart contract of Ethereum, which not only enables the verification of the outsourcing result without a trusted third party but also resists collusion attacks. The results of the theoretical analysis and experimental performance evaluation demonstrate that the proposed protocol is secure, reliable, and more effective compared with state-of-the-art approaches.
