PRISE: Privacy-pReserving Image Searchable Encryption Scheme for Intelligent Vehicle Systems
With the continuous advancement of intelligent vehicle technology, the image data generated by vehicles has become increasingly critical in various applications, including driver assistance, traffic monitoring, and safety warning systems. However, this growing reliance on image data also raises pressing concerns regarding its security and privacy protection. Searchable encryption technology, as an effective means to protect data security, shows significant potential for application in the field of intelligent vehicles. In this paper, we propose a novel Privacy-pReserving Image Searchable Encryption Scheme (PRISE) to address the security and privacy challenges associated with image data in intelligent vehicles. The PRISE scheme employs Multilinear Principal Component Analysis (MPCA) to extract data features and integrates symmetric encryption and matrix encryption techniques to ensure image privacy protection. To enhance search efficiency, we utilize a Mahalanobis distance-based fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering method, which accelerates the search process on the cloud server. We conducted comprehensive experiments to evaluate our proposed scheme, and the results were consistent with our analytical findings, confirming the security of our approach. Comparative experiments with existing schemes demonstrated that our proposed method achieves higher accuracy while maintaining a comparable query time.
