The ability to enforce robust and dynamic access controls on cloud-hosted data while simultaneously ensuring confidentiality with respect to the cloud itself is a clear goal for many users and organizations. To this end, there has been much…
Although wide-scale integration of cloud services with myriad applications increases quality of services (QoS) for enterprise users, verifying the existence and manipulation of stored cloud information remains an open research problem.…
Outsourcing a relational database to the cloud offers several benefits, including scalability, availability, and cost-effectiveness. However, there are concerns about the confidentiality and security of the outsourced data. A general…
Conventional techniques for compression and encryption are frequently laborious and resource-intensive, rendering them inappropriate for real-time applications. A plethora of research has been presented in the current literature to address…
Serverless computing has revolutionized cloud computing by offering users an efficient, cost-effective way to develop and deploy applications without managing infrastructure details. However, serverless cloud users remain vulnerable to…
As an emerging application paradigm, serverless computing attracts attention from more and more attackers. Unfortunately, security tools for conventional applications cannot be easily ported to serverless, and existing serverless security…
A multitude of privacy breaches, both accidental and malicious, have prompted users to distrust centralized providers of online social networks (OSNs) and investigate decentralized solutions. We examine the design of a fully decentralized…
Data breaches-mass leakage of stored information-are a major security concern. Encryption can provide confidentiality, but encryption depends on a key which, if compromised, allows the attacker to decrypt everything, effectively instantly.…
Outsourcing data into the cloud becomes popular thanks to the pay-as-you-go paradigm. However, such practice raises privacy concerns. The conventional way to achieve data privacy is to encrypt sensitive data before outsourcing. When data…
To address the massive growth of data traffic over cellular networks, increasing spatial reuse of the frequency spectrum by the deployment of small base stations (SBSs) has been considered. For rapid deployment of SBSs in the networks,…
This paper considers data secrecy in distributed storage systems (DSSs) using maximally recoverable locally repairable codes (MR-LRCs). Conventional MR-LRCs are in general not secure against eavesdroppers who can observe the transmitted…
With the rapidly changing technological realm, there is an urgent need to provide and protect the confidentiality of confidential images when stored in a cloud environment. To overcome the security risks associated with single cloud,…
Storage systems are essential building blocks for cloud computing infrastructures. Although high performance storage servers are the ultimate solution for cloud storage, the implementation of inexpensive storage system remains an open…
Cloud computing is considered as the one of the most dominant paradigm in field of information technology which offers on demand cost effective services such as Software as a service (SAAS), Infrastructure as a service (IAAS) and Platform…
Today, we are in the era of big data, and data are becoming more and more important, especially private data. Secure Multi-party Computation (SMPC) technology enables parties to perform computing tasks without revealing original data.…
Micro-controller units (MCUs) implement the de facto interface between the physical and digital worlds. As a consequence, they appear in a variety of sensing/actuation applications, from smart personal spaces to complex industrial control…
Advances in technology has given rise to new computing models where any individual/organization (Cloud Service Consumers here by denoted as CSC's) can outsource their computational intensive tasks on their data to a remote Cloud Service…
Nowadays, a large amount of user privacy-sensitive data is outsourced to the cloud server in ciphertext, which is provided by the data owners and can be accessed by authorized data users. When accessing data, the user should be assigned…
This paper introduces a new framework for data hiding security. Contrary to the existing ones, the approach introduced here is not based on probability theory. In this paper, a scheme is considered as secure if its behavior is proven…
Data fragmentation and dispersal over multiple clouds is a way of data protection against honest-but-curious storage or service providers. In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm for data fragmentation that is particularly well…
