Cloud-based data storage and sharing services have been proven successful since the last decades. The underlying model helps users not to expensively spend on hardware to store data while still being able to access and share data anywhere and whenever they desire. In this context, security is vital to protecting users and their resources. Regarding users, they need to be securely authenticated to prove their eligibility to access resources. As for user privacy, showing credentials enables the service provider to detect sharing-related people or build a profile for each. Regarding outsourced data, due to complexity in deploying an effective key management in such services, data is often not encrypted by users but service providers. This enables them to read users’ data. In this thesis, we make a set of contributions which address these issues. First, we design a password-based authenticated key exchange protocol to establish a secure channel between users and service providers over insecure environment. Second, we construct a privacy-enhancing decentralized public key infrastructure which allows building secure authentication protocols while preserving user privacy. Third, we design two revocable ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption schemes. These provide effective key management systems to help a data owner to encrypt data before outsourcing it while still retaining the capacity to securely share it with others. Fourth, we build a decentralized data sharing platform by leveraging the blockchain technology and the IPFS network. The platform aims at providing high data availability, data confidentiality, secure access control, and user privacy.
