• Abstract: Attribute-based encryption (ABE) is a generalization of public-key encryption that enables fine-grained access control in cloud services. Recently, Hohenberger et al. (Eurocrypt 2023) introduced the notion of registered ABE, which is an ABE scheme without a trusted central authority. Instead, users generate their own public/secret keys and then register their keys and attributes with a key curator. The key curator is a transparent and untrusted entity and its behavior needs to be audited for malicious registration. In addition, pairing-based registered ABE still suffers the heavy decryption overhead like ABE. A general approach to address this issue is to outsource decryption to a decryption cloud service (DCS).In this work, we propose BA-ORABE, the first fully auditable registered ABE with reliable outsourced decryption scheme based on blockchain. First, we utilize a verifiable tag mechanism to achieve verifiability of ciphertext transformation, and the exemptibility which enables the honest DCS to escape from wrong claims is guaranteed by zero knowledge fraud proof under optimistic assumption. Additionally, our system achieves fairness and decentralized outsourcing to protect the interests of all parties and the registration and outsourcing process are transparent and fully auditable through blockchain. Finally, we give security analysis, implement and evaluate our scheme on Ethereum to demonstrate its feasibility and efficiency, and show its advantages in real application of decentralized finance.

  Ciphertext-policy-based encryption (CP-ABE) is a promising primitive to provide confidentiality and fine-grained access control. Few studies have considered CP-ABE key confidentiality and authority accountability simultaneously. We introduce an open incentive mechanism to encourage honest participation in data sharing.

  We study the interplay between threshold cryptography and a class of blockchains that use Byzantine-fault tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols. Existing approaches for threshold cryptosystems introduce a latency overhead of at least one message delay for running the threshold cryptographic protocol. We propose a mechanism to eliminate this overhead for blockchain-native threshold cryptosystems with tight thresholds.
