Verifiable and Fault-Tolerant Privacy-Preserving Data Aggregation for MEC-Enabled Consumer IoT

The consumer Internet of Things (CIoT) enables large-scale sensing and data-driven services by connecting billions of devices. However, the privacy-preserving data aggregation in mobile edge computing (MEC)-enabled CIoT remains challenging when the edge aggregator is malicious, rather than simply honest-but-curious. Sp...
