Rapid evolution of cyber threats and recent trends in the increasing number of cyber-attacks call for adopting robust and agile cybersecurity techniques. Cybersecurity information sharing is expected to play an effective role in detecting and defending against new attacks. However, reservations and or-ganizational policies centering the privacy of shared data have become major setbacks in large-scale collaboration in cyber defense. The situation is worsened by the fact that the benefits of cyber-information exchange are not realized unless many actors participate. In this paper, we argue that privacy preservation of shared threat data will motivate entities to share threat data. Accordingly, we propose a framework called CYBersecurity information EXchange with Privacy (CYBEX-P) to achieve this. CYBEX-P is a structured information sharing platform with integrating privacy-preserving mechanisms. We propose a complete system architecture for CYBEX-P that guarantees maximum security and privacy of data. CYBEX-P outlines the details of a cybersecurity information sharing platform. The adoption of blind processing, privacy preservation, and trusted computing paradigms make CYBEX-P a versatile and secure information exchange platform.

Sharing personal data with other people or organizations over the web has become a common phenomena of our modern life. This type of sharing is usually managed by access control mechanisms that include access control model and policies. However, these models are designed from the organizational perspective and do not provide sufficient flexibility and control to the individuals. Therefore, individuals often cannot control sharing of their personal data based on their personal context. In addition, the existing context-aware access control models usually check contextual condition once at the beginning of the access and do not evaluate the context during an on-going access. Moreover, individuals do not have control to define how often they want to evaluate the context condition for an ongoing access. Wearable devices such as Fitbit and Apple Smart Watch have recently become increasingly popular. This has made it possible to gather an individual's real-time contextual information (e.g., location, blood-pressure etc.) which can be used to enforce continuous authorization to the individual's data resources. In this paper, we introduce a novel data sharing policy model for continuous authorization in subject-driven data sharing. A software prototype has been implemented employing a wearable device to demonstrate continuous authorization. Our continuous authorization framework provides more control to the individuals by enabling revocation of on-going access to shared data if the specified context condition becomes invalid.

With all data services of cloud, it's not only stored the data, although shared the data among the multiple users or clients, which make doubt in its integrity due to the existence of software/hardware error along with human error too. There is an existence of several mechanisms to allow data holders and public verifiers to precisely, efficiently and effectively audit integrity of cloud data without accessing the whole data from server. After all, public auditing on the integrity of shared data with pervious extant mechanisms will somehow affirm the confidential information and its identity privacy to the public verifiers. In this paper, to achieve the privacy preserving public for auditing, we intended an explanation for TPA using three way handshaking protocol through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) with liberated encryption standard. Appropriately, from the cloud, we use the VerifyProof execute by TPA to audit to certify. In addition to this mechanism, the identity of each segment in the shared data is kept private from the public verifiers. Moreover, rather than verifying the auditing task one by one, this will capable to perform, the various auditing tasks simultaneously.

Security has always been concern when it comes to data sharing in cloud computing. Cloud computing provides high computation power and memory. Cloud computing is convenient way for data sharing. But users may sometime needs to outsourced the shared data to cloud server though it contains valuable and sensitive information. Thus it is necessary to provide cryptographically enhanced access control for data sharing system. This paper discuss about the promising access control for data sharing in cloud which is identity-based encryption. We introduce the efficient revocation scheme for the system which is revocable-storage identity-based encryption scheme. It provides both forward and backward security of ciphertext. Then we will have glance at the architecture and steps involved in identity-based encryption. Finally we propose system that provide secure file sharing system using identity-based encryption scheme.

Cloud computing, often referred to as simply “the cloud,” is the delivery of on-demand computing resources; everything from applications to data centers over the Internet. Cloud is used not only for storing data, but also the stored data can be shared by multiple users. Due to this, the integrity of cloud data is subject to doubt. Every time it is not possible for user to download all data and verify integrity, so proposed system contain Third Party Auditor (TPA) to verify the integrity of shared data. During auditing, the shared data is kept private from public verifiers, who are able to verify shared data integrity without downloading or retrieving the entire data file. Group signature is used to preserve identity privacy of group members from third party auditor. Privacy preserving is done to ensure that the TPA cannot derive user's data content from the information collected during the auditing process.
