Abstract

With the popularity of cloud storage, how to verify the integrity of data on the cloud has become a challenging problem. Traditional verification framework involves the Third Party Auditors (TPAs) which are not entirely credible. In this paper, we present a framework for blockchain-based data integrity verification in P2P cloud storage, making verification more open, transparent, and auditable. In this framework, we present Merkle trees for data integrity verification, and analyze the system performance under different Merkle trees structures. Furthermore, we develop rational sampling strategies to make sampling verification more effective. Moreover, we discuss the optimal sample size to tradeoff the conflict between verification overhead and verification precision, and suggest two efficient algorithms of order of verification. Finally, we conduct a series of experiments to evaluate the schemes of our framework. The experimental results show that our schemes can effectively improve the performance of data integrity verification.
