Abstrakt: With the advancement of technology, Multimedia Social Networks (MSN) have become one of the most promising platforms for managing and sharing multimedia content. The user outsources sensitive content to the Multimedia Social Networks Service Provider (MSNSP). The MSNSP accumulates data in the network, and the user can process and share content like files, audios, and videos with other users through MSN such as YouTube, Vimeo, Flicker, Google Video, Cloud Drive, and so on. Despite receiving wide attention, two main drawbacks regarding MSN platforms are user privacy and data security. Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) is an appealing cryptographic primitive that plays the principal role for fine-grained access control on encrypted content, thus resolving security and privacy issues smoothly. Recently, there has been a trend to design ABE schemes incorporating a variety of additional properties. In this paper, we have assimilated revocability and key-homomorphic property in ciphertext-policy attribute-based key encapsulation mechanism (CP-ABKEM). Our designs are the first to achieve these additional two properties concurrently in an attribute-based setting. We have provided two instantiations of key-homomorphic revocableCP-ABKEM - one is selective secure against chosen-plaintext attack (CPA) in the standard model under the hardness of the q-decisional bilinear Diffie-Hellman exponent (q-DBDHE) problem, while the other achieves selective CPA security in the random oracle model under the hardness of the n-multilinear decisional Diffie-Hellman (n-MDDH) problem. Furthermore, our first scheme performs better than existing similar schemes in terms of communication overhead and master secret key size. As an advanced version of CP-ABKEM, our proposal is significant and may be utilized for various privacy-preserving protocols. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
