Abstract
The epoch of the Internet of Things (IoT) has come by enabling almost everything to gather and share electronic information. Considering the unreliable factors of public IoT, how to outsource huge amounts of indispensable stream data generated by the nodes to the remote storage efficiently and securely is one of the most challenging issues. In this paper, we propose a secure lightweight stream data outsourcing framework for IoT based on identity and blockchain. Taking advantage of identity-based cryptography and blockchain, for public IoT containing untrusted communication channels, nodes, remote storage, and even verifiers, we introduce a private mobile network and multiple verifiers to ensure that the stream data are stored intact and updated correctly, without the costs and risks brought by the Public Key Infrastructures (PKI). Meanwhile, the framework can also achieve privacy-preserving checking, by revealing no data to the other entities besides the remote storage, even in the blockchains. Our comprehensive analysis and experiments demonstrate that the proposed framework is suitable for lightweight devices and practical for IoT.
