【Abstract】As an important method of protecting data confidentiality in the Internet of Things (IoT), access control has been widely concerned. Because attribute-based access control mechanisms are dynamic, it is not only suitable to solve the dynamic access problem in IoT, but also to deal with the dynamic caused by node movement and access data change. The traditional centralized attribute-based access control mechanism has some problems: due to the large number of devices in IoT, the central trusted entity may become the bottleneck of the whole system. Moreover, when a central trusted entity is under distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, the entire system may crash. Blockchain is a good way to solve the above problems. Therefore, we developed a non-interactive, attribute-based access control scheme that applies blockchain technology in IoT scenarios by using PSI technology. In addition, the attributes of data user and data holder are hidden, which protects the privacy of both parties' attributes and access policy. Furthermore, the experimental results indicate that our scheme has high efficiency.
