With the application of wireless sensor network (WSN) in healthcare field, online sharing of medical data has attracted more and more attention. However, wearable sensor nodes in WSN are limited in energy, storage space and data processing capacity, which largely restricts their deployment in resource demand application scenarios. Fortunately, cloud storage services can enrich the capabilities of wearable sensors and provide an effective method for people to share data within a group. However, as medical data directly relates to patients' health and privacy information, ensuring the integrity and privacy of medical records stored in cloud servers becomes a key issue to be urgently solved. Many public data auditing schemes have been put forward to address the above issues. Unfortunately, most of them have security vulnerabilities or poor functionality and performance. In this paper, we come up with a secure and efficient certificateless public auditing scheme for cloud-assisted medical WSNs, which not only supports dynamic data sharing and privacy protection, but also achieves efficient group user revocation. Security analysis and performance evaluation demonstrate that our scheme significantly reduce the total computation cost while achieving a higher security level. Compared with other related schemes, our new proposal is more suitable for group user data sharing in cloud-assisted medical WSNs.
