Policy-hiding inner product encryption for fine-grained access control in intelligent medical service
摘要
Intelligent medical service significantly improves healthcare quality and convenience but raises serious concerns regarding data security and patient privacy. Ensuring secure diagnostics and protecting sensitive medical data remain key challenges in the adoption of IoT-based healthcare systems. To tackle these challenges, we introduce a Policy-Hiding Attribute-based Inner Product Functional Encryption (PH-AIPFE) scheme specifically designed for achieving fine-grained and privacy-preserving access control mechanisms in medical IoT environments. Unlike traditional encryption schemes that output plaintext upon successful decryption, our scheme functions as a true functional encryption system–it outputs the inner product value
