Efficient Distance Computation Using Function-Hiding Inner Product Encryption for Privacy-Preserving Anomaly Detection.

In Internet of Things (IoT) systems in which a large number of IoT devices are connected to each other and to third-party servers, it is crucial to verify whether each device operates appropriately. Although anomaly detection can help with this verification, individual devices cannot afford this process because of resource constraints. Therefore, it is reasonable to outsource anomaly detection to servers; however, sharing device state information with outside servers may raise privacy concerns.
