A Blockchain Copyright Protection Scheme Based on CP-ABE Scheme with Policy Update

Abstract

Although the copyright protection schemes supported by blockchain have significantly changed traditional copyright data management, there are still some data security challenges that cannot be ignored, especially the secure access and controllable management of copyright data. Quantum computing attacks also pose a threat to its security. Targeting these issues, we design and propose a blockchain copyright protection scheme based on attribute-based encryption (ABE). In this scheme, the security advantages of blockchain technology are utilized to ensure the authenticity and integrity of copyright data. Based on lattice cryptography and the decision ring learning with errors (R-LWE) problem, a new ABE algorithm that supports searchable ciphertext and policy updates is designed. Then, we introduce it into the blockchain copyright protection scheme, which enables secure access to copyright data and fine-grained control. In addition, the lattice cryptography can strengthen this scheme against quantum attacks. Through security analysis, our scheme can prove to be secure against adaptive chosen keyword attacks, selective chosen plaintext attacks, and adaptive chosen policy attacks in the random oracle model. More importantly, the comparison analysis and experimental results show that our proposed approach has lower computation costs and storage costs. Therefore, our scheme has better security and performance in copyright protection.
