【Abstract】Outsourced Proofs of Retrievability (OPoR) with private verification enables a third party verifier to periodically check cloud data on behalf of users. However, such a scheme requires the verifier to keep a copy of the user's data and generate tags for the data like the data owner. In other words, in addition to storing the data and tags from the user, the cloud server also needs to store tags uploaded by the verifier. To overcome this limitation, we propose a concrete construction of outsourced privately verifiable PoR (OPVPoR) without requiring the additional tag storage from the verifier. Furthermore, we extend the OPVPoR scheme to the multi-user setting and build a MOPVPoR scheme, where users storing the same data to the cloud server also share the tag information to further reduce the storage cost. Finally, we implement both schemes to evaluate their performance in practice.
