The data is an important asset of an organization and it is essential to keep this asset secure. It requires security in whatever state is it i.e. data at rest, data in use, and data in transit. There is a need to pay more attention to it…
The abilities of traditional perimeter-based security architectures are rapidly decreasing as more enterprise assets are moved toward the cloud environment. From a security viewpoint, the Zero Trust framework can better track and block…
In order to solve security and privacy issues of centralized cloud services, the edge computing network is introduced, where computing and storage resources are distributed to the edge of the network. However, native edge computing is…
Distributed applications need identifiers that satisfy storage efficiency, chronological sortability, origin metadata embedding, zero-lookup verifiability, confidentiality for external consumers, and multi-century addressability. Based on…
With challenges and limitations associated with security in the fintech industry, the rise to the need for data protection increases. However, the current existing passwordless and password-based peer to peer transactions in online banking…
The use of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) systems for digital identity management is gaining traction and interest. Countries such as Bhutan have already implemented an SSI infrastructure to manage the identity of their citizens. The EU,…
The complexity of modern integrated circuits (ICs) necessitates collaboration between multiple distrusting parties, including thirdparty intellectual property (3PIP) vendors, design houses, CAD/EDA tool vendors, and foundries, which…
This article describes how technical infrastructure developed by the nonprofit OpenMined enables external scrutiny of AI systems without compromising sensitive information. Independent external scrutiny of AI systems provides crucial…
Data splitting preserves privacy by partitioning data into various fragments to be stored remotely and shared. It supports most data operations because data can be stored in clear as opposed to methods that rely on cryptography. However,…
With the increasing use of online services, the protection of the privacy of users becomes more and more important. This is particularly critical as authentication and authorization as realized on the Internet nowadays, typically relies on…
Cloud native systems are processing large amounts of personal data through numerous and possibly multi-paradigmatic data stores (e.g., relational and non-relational databases). From a privacy engineering perspective, a core challenge is to…
AI agents are autonomous entities that can be instantiated on demand, migrate across platforms, and interact with other agents or services without continuous human supervision. In such environments, identity is critical for establishing…
Web authentication is a critical component of today's Internet and the digital world we interact with. The FIDO2 protocol enables users to leverage common devices to easily authenticate to online services in both mobile and desktop…
Big data applications offer smart solutions to many urgent societal challenges, such as health care, traffic coordination, energy management, etc. The basic premise for these applications is "the more data the better". The focus often lies…
Cloud computing is a trending technology in the field of Information Technology as it allows sharing of resources over a network. The reason Cloud computing gained traction so rapidly was because of its performance, availability and low…
The enterprises today are faced with the tough challenge of processing, storing large amounts of data in a secure, scalable manner and enabling decision makers to make quick, informed data driven decisions. This paper addresses this…
An important concern in end user development (EUD) is accidentally embedding personal information in program artifacts when sharing them. This issue is particularly important in GUI-based programming-by-demonstration (PBD) systems due to…
This paper attempts to accurately model security requirements for computational grid environments with particular focus on authentication. We introduce the Audited Credential Delegation (ACD) architecture as a solution to some of the…
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is a new computing paradigm that enables cloud computing and information technology (IT) services to be delivered at the network's edge. By shifting the load of cloud computing to individual local servers, MEC…
On the Internet large service providers tend to control the digital identities of users. These defacto identity authorities wield significant power over users, compelling them to comply with non-negotiable terms, before access to services…
