【Abstract】With the application and popularization of the Internet of Things (IoT), while the IoT devices bring us intelligence and convenience, the privacy protection issue has gradually attracted people's attention. Access control technology is one of the important methods to protect privacy. However, the existing IoT access control technologies have extensive problems such as coarse-grainedness, weak auditability, lack of access process control, and excessive privileges, which make the security and privacy of our IoT devices face great threats. Based on this, a blockchain-based and encrypted currency-based access control model CcBAC supported by Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) technology is proposed, which can provide fine-graininess, strong auditability, and access procedure control for the Internet of Things. In this study, the technical principle, characteristics, and research status of the control model are introduced, and the framework of the CcBAC model is expounded in detail and formally defined. Moreover, the functions in the model are described in detail, and a specific access control process in general scenarios is presented for the model. Finally, the practicability of this model is verified through theoretical analysis and experimental evaluation, which proves that this model not only enables resource owners to fully control the access to their resources, but also takes into account the fine-graininess and auditable access control.
