Abstract: The current world mostly depends on the e-commerce platform to buy and sell goods around the world. Most attackers use the e-commerce platform to access and steal precious users' transactions and personal data. This paper proposes light-weight distributed accessible control (LW-DAC) for data management to secure users' data in an e-commerce platform. The Lightweight Security method enables distributed user information access control for protected users. This system's security is reduced to the bilinear discrete Diffie-Hellman (BDDH) assumption, which helps the decision-making algorithm minimise execution time. The proposed method provides easy data encryption, trapdoor keyword generation, and data recovery. BDDH filters the keyword search to avoid accessing the terminal. The algorithm has been compared with the existing system and proven based on reliability as well as scalability highly efficient compared to others. The simulation analysis demonstrated that the Lightweight Security Scheme for the data management system encrypts the user data and prevents backdoor access with high scalability, performance, and lower mean square error.

Keywords: bilinear Diffe-Hellman; lightweight; security; keyword; backdoor; data management.
