Subversion-Resistant Autonomous Path Proxy Re-Encryption With Secure Deduplication for IoMT
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) consists of many resource-constrained medical devices that provide patients with medical services anytime and anywhere. In such an environment, the collection and sharing of medical records raise serious security concerns. Although various cryptographic schemes have been proposed, most fail to address two critical threats simultaneously: (i) sensitive data exposure caused by external cloud servers and/or open network environments; (ii) algorithm substitution attacks (ASAs) by internal adversaries. Furthermore, when data owners (e.g., delegators) are inconvenient to process their data, it is desirable to establish a more fine-grained way to delegate encryption rights. To tackle these issues, we propose a subversion-resistant autonomous path proxy re-encryption with an equality test function (SRAP-PRET). Specifically, our scheme allows the delegator to create a multi-hop delegation path in advance with the delegator's preferences, effectively preventing unauthorized access. By deploying a cryptographic reverse firewall zone, SRAP-PRET addresses the problem of information leakage caused by adversaries initiating ASAs. Additionally, SRAP-PRET also supports secure deduplication and efficient data decryption. Security analysis shows that SRAP-PRET provides resistance against ASAs and security against chosen plaintext attacks. Performance evaluations demonstrate that SRAP-PRET offers enhanced security properties without sacrificing efficiency.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
