Title
Toward Practical Privacy-Preserving Processing Over Encrypted Data in IoT: An Assistive Healthcare Use Case
Abstract
With the advancement of Internet of Things (IoT), a large number of electronic devices are connected to the Internet. These connected electronic devices acquire and transmit information, and respond to any received actions. In the medical ecosystem, hospitals can implement medical diagnosis (MD) with medical sensors, especially for remote auxiliary MD. But, in this context, patients’ privacy (PP) is of paramount importance, and confidentiality of medical data is crucial. Therefore, the main challenge ahead is how to realize remote auxiliary MD while protecting confidentiality of the medical data and ensuring PP. In this article, based on somewhat homomorphic encryption (SHE) scheme addressed by Junfeng Fan and Frederik Vercauteren (FV), we provide the first instance of a new efficient SHE scheme for homomorphic evaluation over single instruction multiple data (SIMD). We also implement a new set of efficient SIMD homomorphic comparison and division schemes. Based on these findings, we implement efficient privacy preserving and SIMD homomorphic <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">surf</italic> and multiretina-image matching schemes. Offered functionalities include SIMD homomorphic feature point detection, multiretina-image matching, and lesion detection for the encrypted retinal image of diabetic retinopathy. Finally, we provide a proof-of-concept application implementation toward remote auxiliary diagnosis systems for diabetes in order to showcase the core security and privacy pillars of our solution. In the meantime, our IoT system designed with lattice-based cryptography preserves data confidentiality under quantum computation and quantum computers.
