The place of public key cryptography (PKC) in guaranteeing the security of wireless networks under human-centered IoT environments cannot be overemphasized. PKC uses the idea of paired keys that are mathematically dependent but independent in practice. In PKC, each communicating party needs the public key and the authorized digital certificate of the other party to achieve encryption and decryption. In this circumstance, a directory is required to store the public keys of the participating parties. However, the design of such a directory can be cost-prohibitive and time-consuming. Recently, identity-based encryption (IBE) schemes have been introduced to address the vast limitations of PKC schemes. In a typical IBE system, a third-party server can distribute the public credentials to all parties involved in the system. Thus, the private key can be harvested from the arbitrary public key. As a result, the sender could use the public key of the receiver to encrypt the message, and the receiver could use the extracted private key to decrypt the message. In order to improve systems security, new IBE schemes are solely desired. However, the complexity and cost of designing an entirely new IBE technique remain. In order to address this problem, this paper presents a provably secure IBE transformation model for PKC using conformable Chebyshev chaotic maps under the human-centered IoT environment. In particular, we offer a robust and secure IBE transformation model and provide extensive performance analysis and security proofs of the model. Finally, we demonstrate the superiority of the proposed IBE transformation model over the existing IBE schemes. Overall, results indicate that the proposed scheme posed excellent security capabilities compared to the preliminary IBE-based schemes.

“…Also, Zheng et al [31] have reported signatures that use lattice. Furthermore, Addobea et al [32] put up a certificateless signature scheme for medical devices. However, most of the signature schemes are based on pairing, and such IBS constructions require complex pairing operations in groups, which poses substantial computational costs.…”

“…The security of the model is connected to the theoretical Diffie–Hellman assumption in the random oracle model. Addobea et al [ 27 ] also proposed an offline-online signature scheme called the MHCOOS for M-Health devices based on bilinear pairing. However, bilinear pairing involves high pairing and map-to-point function operations, which is not suitable for resource-constrained IoHT devices.…”

“…This subsection is aimed at discussing the comparison results from the perspective of communication costs. The proposed approach is compared with the existing schemes presented by Yu and Tate [ 25 ] scheme 1, Yu and Tate [ 25 ] scheme 2, Wu et al [ 26 ], and Addobea et al [ 27 ]. In comparative analysis, the variables, i.e.…”

The Internet of Health Things (IoHT) is an extended breed of the Internet of Things (IoT), which plays an important role in the remote sharing of data from various physical processes such as patient monitoring, treatment progress, observation, and consultation. The key benefit of the IoHT platform is the ease of time-independent interaction from geographically distant locations by offering preventive or proactive healthcare services at a lower cost. The communication, integration, computation, and interoperability in IoHT are provided by various low-power biomedical sensors equipped with limited computational capabilities. Therefore, conventional cryptographic solutions are not feasible for the majority of IoHT applications. In addition, executing computing-intensive tasks will lead to a slow response time that can deteriorate the performance of IoHT. We strive to resolve such a deficiency, and thus a new scheme has been proposed in this article, called an online-offline signature scheme in certificateless settings. The scheme divides the signing part into two phases, i.e., online and offline. In the absence of a message, the offline phase performs computationally intensive tasks, while lighter computations are executed in the online phase when there is a message. Security analyses and comparisons with the respective existing schemes are carried out to show the feasibility of the proposed scheme. The results obtained authenticate that the proposed scheme offers enhanced security with lower computational and communication costs.

“…Different from the completely decentralized design of public chains such as bitcoin [23][24][25], different members of CDMBS need to have different identities and permissions. To ensure the safe operation of the CDMBS system, it is necessary to set up effective access control policies for different users [30][31][32].…”

After the outbreak of the new coronavirus pneumonia, it has been broadcasting soon. Medical supplies are out of used. Chinese people have provided medical supplies and raised donations to help Hubei Province, China. While, Red Cross Society of Hubei Branch and Wuhan Branch were suspected for unfair distribution of donated materials, the backlog of donated items, and inefficient assignment. These problems exposed public welfare organizations to the public sights. For information sharing, Jiangsu Province developed a new COVID-19 Donation Management Blockchain System (CDMBS). The system improves the transparency and credibility of donation information with the blockchain. Based on the overall architecture of Jiangsu's new coronavirus charity donation management blockchain, this paper designs various types of security control components. The components include the middleware for secure connection to protect the user certificate security. We designed CA certificate user management middleware to realize more secure registration and query functions for users with extended attributes. There is also a blockchain query middle with access control Software to ensure that important blockchain information is viewed securely. Experiments have verified the effectiveness and applicability of these security control components. It can be applied into a variety of scenarios in the CDMBS.
