Abstract

Abstract

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) are expected to play a major role in field of medical-health monitoring in near future. Unfortunately, an increasing number of attacks to BCI applications underline the existence of security and privacy related issues, which gains tremendous attention amongst researchers. In this paper, a communication architecture is proposed for BCI applications, and an access control scheme is designed by employing Ciphertext-Policy Attribute Based Encryption (CP-ABE). The proposed scheme supports fully fine-grained attribute revocation by proxy re-encryption. The proposed scheme can efficiently and feasibly reduce the challenges of privacy preservation, and it works excellent in energy consumption and communication/ computation overhead.
