PPSS: A Privacy-Preserving Supervision Scheme Based on Blockchain

In JointCloud Computing, multi-party participation introduces complexity and uncertainty. For all participants in JointCloud Computing, both continuous supervision and necessary privacy protection are required. Traditional supervision methods usually adopt the centralized information interaction mode, which has such defects as collusion of interests, single point of failure, privacy disclosure, etc. Building a decentralized supervision mechanism has become a new research direction. In this paper, we propose PPSS, a privacy-preserving supervision scheme based on blockchain, which decentralizes the supervision of the participants in JointCloud Computing, and combines the "double encryptions" and "threshold encryption" technologies to provide privacy protection. While making full use of the decentralization of the blockchain, a committee is established to carry out the analysis and decision-making tasks in terms of supervision and privacy protection. Experimental results indicate that PPSS can balance performance and security by reasonably configuring the committee.
