Proof of storage with corruption identification and recovery for dynamic group users by Tao JIANG, Hang XU, Liangmin WANG, Jianfeng MA

“…The outsourced storage mode of cloud computing leads to the separation of data ownership and management rights of data owners, which changes the data storage network model and security model.To effectively deal with the software and hardware failures of the cloud server and the potential dishonest service provider and also ensure the availability of the data owners’ data, the design of secure and efficient data availability and recoverability auditing scheme has both theoretical and practical importance in solving the concern of users and ensuring the security of cloud data.However, most of the existing studies were designed for the security and efficiency of data integrity or recoverability schemes, without considering the fast identification and reliable recovery of damaged data under dynamic group users.Thus, to quickly identify and recover damaged data, a publicly verifiable proof of storage scheme was proposed for dynamic group cloud users.The designed scheme enabled a trusted third-party auditor to efficiently identify the damaged files through a challenge-response protocol and allowed the cloud storage server to effectively recover them when the degree of data damage is less than an error correction ability threshold.The scheme combined association calculation and accumulation calculation, which effectively reduced the number of calculations for the identification of damaged data.By combining erasure coding and shared coding technology, the scheme achieved effective recovery of damaged data of dynamic group users.At the same time, the scheme also supported dynamic user revocation, which ensured the integrity audit and reliable recovery of the collective data after user revocation.The network model and threat model of the designed scheme were defined and the security of the scheme under the corresponding security model was proved.Through the prototype implementation of the scheme in the real environment and the modular performance analysis, it is proved that the proposed scheme can effectively identify the damaged data and reliably recover the cloud data when the data is damaged.Besides, compared with other schemes, it is also proved that the proposed scheme has less computational overhead in identifying and recovering damaged data.…”

Predicting correlation relationships of entities between attack patterns and techniques based on word embedding and graph convolutional network by Weicheng QIU, Xiuzhen CHEN, Yinghua MA, Jin MA, Zhihong ZHOU

“…Threat analysis relies on knowledge bases that contain a large number of security entities.The scope and impact of security threats and risks are evaluated by modeling threat sources, attack capabilities, attack motivations, and threat paths, taking into consideration the vulnerability of assets in the system and the security measures implemented.However, the lack of entity relations between these knowledge bases hinders the security event tracking and attack path generation.To complement entity relations between CAPEC and ATT＆amp;CK techniques and enrich threat paths, an entity correlation prediction method called WGS was proposed, in which entity descriptions were analyzed based on word embedding and a graph convolution network.A Word2Vec model was trained in the proposed method for security domain to extract domain-specific semantic features and a GCN model to capture the co-occurrence between words and sentences in entity descriptions.The relationship between entities was predicted by a Siamese network that combines these two features.The inclusion of external semantic information helped address the few-shot learning problem caused by limited entity relations in the existing knowledge base.Additionally, dynamic negative sampling and regularization was applied in model training.Experiments conducted on CAPEC and ATT＆amp;CK database provided by MITRE demonstrate that WGS effectively separates related entity pairs from irrelevant ones in the sample space and accurately predicts new entity relations.The proposed method achieves higher prediction accuracy in few-shot learning and requires shorter training time and less computing resources compared to the Bert-based text similarity prediction models.It proves that word embedding and graph convolutional network based entity relation prediction method can extract new entity correlation relationships between attack patterns and techniques.This helps to abstract attack techniques and tactics from low-level vulnerabilities and weaknesses in security threat analysis.…”
