New method for file deduplication in cloud storage by Chao YANG, Qian JI, Si-chun XIONG, Mao-zhen LIU, Jian-feng MA, Qi JIANG, Lin BAI

“…Deduplication is widely used in cloud storage service to save bandwidth and storage resources,however,the security of client deduplication still flaws in an external attack to access a user’s private data.Xu-CDE,a deduplication solution of encrypting data for multi-client was first proposed,which could protect the privacy of data from the external attackers and honest but curious server,with favorable theoretical meaning and representativeness.However,in Xu-CDE,the user ownership authentication credentials were lack of instantaneity protection,which could not resist replay attack.As an improvement to the flaw,the protocol MRN-CDE (MLE based and random number modified client-side deduplication of encrypted data in cloud storage) was proposed,adding random number in order to ensure the instantaneity of the authentication credentials,and using the algorithm of MLE-K_Pto extract key from original file to replace the file itself as an encryption key.As a consequence,the new protocol improved security while significantly reduced the amount of computation.After the safety analysis and the actual tests,results show that based on Xu-CDE,the proposed protocol MRN-CDE has stronger security of ownership,and improves time efficiency.Specially,the new protocol works better on large files in cloud with a certain value.…”
