Popis: Internet of Things (IoT) is made up of various smart devices for the exchange of sensed data through online services. Direct contact with people through smart devices to define parameters for healthcare and send them to a centralized repository. At the time of data exchange, messages need to be secure between a source (sender) and target (receiver) in order to confront human malicious attacks. Various signature-based schemes are presented in the literature to provide secure communication. Smart apps, however, require lightweight activities by maintaining critical security strengths. The key challenge in signature-based methods is more incurred computational expense for signing and checking process involving large numbers. In this article, a new lightweight provably secure partial discrete logarithm (DL) based subtree-based short signature with fuzzy user data sharing for human-centered IoT systems is introduced and it’s security analysis is demonstrated on random oracle (RO) model. The presented scheme provides assurance of better security than other standing short-signature schemes. For low-storage, low-computation environments and low-bandwidth communication, the presented new provably secure and lightweight subtree-based short-signature scheme is needed. The results demonstrate the strength of proposed scheme, as opposed to existing works.
