Abstract
Benefiting from cloud computing and mobile devices, a huge number of media contents, such as videos are shared in mobile networks. Although scalable video coding can be utilized to provide flexible adaptation, the cloud poses a serious threat to media privacy. In this paper, we propose a privacy-preserving multi-dimensional media sharing scheme named SMACD in mobile cloud computing. First, each media layer is encrypted with an access policy based on attribute-based encryption, which guarantees media confidentiality as well as fine-grained access control. Then, we present a multi-level access policy construction with secret sharing scheme. It ensures that the mobile consumers who obtain a media layer at a higher access level must satisfy the access trees of its child layers at the lower access level, which is compatible with the characteristics of multi-dimensional media and also reduces the complexity of access policies. Moreover, we introduce decentralized key servers to achieve both intra-server and inter-server deduplication by associating different access policies into the same encrypted media. Finally, we conduct experimental evaluation on mobile device and cloud platform with real-world datasets. The results indicate that SMACD protects media privacy against cloud media center and unauthorized parties, while incurring less computational and storage cost.
