摘要

In distributed large-scale intelligent computing, efficient collaboration between the cloud and edge devices is essential to provide rapid data access for a vast number of users, which is crucial for optimal data storage services. The edge servers are utilized to meet the data access requirements of adjacent group users. Numerous data auditing schemes for cloud computing have been proposed to protect user data integrity and avoid the threat of data leakage, loss, or tampering. However, secure cloud-edge storage of group users remains to be further studied. This paper proposes a novel blockchain-assisted blinded data auditing scheme for cloud-edge systems. Firstly, blockchain technology is utilized to monitor the activities of a semi-trusted third-party auditor (TPA). Secondly, user identifiers are utilized to trace the malicious behaviors in the systems. In addition, a data blinding algorithm is utilized to ensure that the raw data is unavailable to a curious TPA. Both security analysis and performance assessment demonstrate that this scheme conducts data auditing for cloud-edge systems with reliability and efficiency.
