By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Computer Weekly News -- Data detailed on Information Technology - Cloud Computing have been presented. According to news originating from Changsha, People’s Republic of China, by VerticalNews correspondents, research stated, “Location-based services (LBSs) are increasingly popular in today’s society. People reveal their location information to LBS providers to obtain personalized services such as map directions, restaurant recommendations, and taxi reservations.”

Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China, Science and Technology Key Projects of Hunan Province, Natural Science Foundation of Hunan Province, Education Department of Hunan Province, Science and Technology Planning Project of Changsha.

Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Changsha University, “Usually, LBS providers offer user privacy protection statement to assure users that their private location information would not be given away. However, many LBSs run on third-party cloud infrastructures. It is challenging to guarantee user location privacy against curious cloud operators while still permitting users to query their own location information data. In this paper, we propose an efficient privacy-preserving cloud-based LBS query scheme for the multiuser setting. We encrypt LBS data and LBS queries with a hybrid encryption mechanism, which can efficiently implement privacy-preserving search over encrypted LBS data and is very suitable for the multiuser setting with secure and effective user enrollment and user revocation.”

According to the news editors, the research concluded: “This paper contains security analysis and performance experiments to demonstrate the privacy-preserving properties and efficiency of our proposed scheme.”
