Security Limitations of Using Secret Sharing for Data Outsourcing

چکیده

Three recently proposed schemes use secret sharing to support privacy-preserving data outsourcing. Each secret in the database is split into n shares, which are distributed to independent data servers. A trusted client can use any k shares to reconstruct the secret. These schemes claim to offer security even when k or more servers collude, as long as certain information such as the finite field prime is known only to the client. We present a concrete attack that refutes this claim by demonstrating that security is lost in all three schemes when k or more servers collude. Our attack runs on commodity hardware and recovers a 8192-bit prime and all secret values in less than an hour for k = 8.

Separating indexes from data: a distributed scheme for secure database outsourcing

Database outsourcing is an idea to eliminate the burden of database management from organizations. Since data is a critical asset of organizations, preserving its privacy from outside adversary and untrusted server should be warranted. In this paper, we present a distributed scheme based on storing shares of data on different servers and separating indexes from data on a distinct server. Shamir...

Computationally secure multiple secret sharing: models, schemes, and formal security analysis

A multi-secret sharing scheme (MSS) allows a dealer to share multiple secrets among a set of participants. in such a way a multi-secret sharing scheme (MSS) allows a dealer to share multiple secrets among a set of participants, such that any authorized subset of participants can reconstruct the secrets. Up to now, existing MSSs either require too long shares for participants to be perfect secur...

A Fast Publicly Verifiable Secret Sharing Scheme using Non-homogeneous Linear Recursions

A non-interactive (t,n)-publicly veriable secret sharing scheme (non-interactive (t,n)-PVSS scheme) is a (t,n)-secret sharing scheme in which anyone, not only the participants of the scheme, can verify the correctness of the produced shares without interacting with the dealer and participants. The (t,n)-PVSS schemes have found a lot of applications in cryptography because they are suitable for<...

On the design and security of a lattice-based threshold secret sharing scheme

In this paper, we introduce a method of threshold secret sharing scheme (TSSS) in which secret reconstruction is based on Babai's nearest plane algorithm. In order to supply secure public channels for transmitting shares to parties, we need to ensure that there are no quantum threats to these channels. A solution to this problem can be utilization of lattice-based cryptosystems for these channe...
