Title
ELSA: A Keyword-based Searchable Encryption for Cloud-edge assisted Industrial Internet of Things
Abstract
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) plays a powerful role in smart manufacturing by performing real-time analysis for large volumes of data. In addition, IIoT systems can monitor several factors, such as data accuracy, network bandwidth and operations latency. To perform these operations securely and in a privacy-preserving manner, one solution is to use cryptographic primitives. However, most cryptographic solutions add performance overhead causing latency. In this paper, we propose an Edge Lightweight Searchable Attribute-based encryption system (ELSA). ELSA leverages the cloud-edge architecture to improve search time beyond the state-of-the-art. The main contributions of this paper are as follows. First, we present an untrusted cloud/trusted edge architecture, which optimises the efficiency of data processing and decision making in the IIoT context. Second, we enhance search performance over current state-of-the-art (LSABE-MA) by an order of magnitude. We achieve this by improving the organisation of the data to provide better than linear search performance. We leverage the edge server to cluster data indices by keyword and introduce a query optimiser. The query optimiser uses k-means clustering to improve the efficiency of range queries, removing the need for linear search. In addition, we achieve this without sacrificing accuracy over the results.
