Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in text understanding and generation, and they are increasingly being utilized across various domains to enhance productivity. However, due to the high costs of…
Monitoring location updates from mobile users has important applications in many areas, ranging from public safety and national security to social networks and advertising. However, sensitive information can be derived from movement…
We present a privacy-preserving telemetry aggregation scheme. Our underlying frequency estimation routine works within the framework of differential privacy. The design philosophy follows a client-server architecture. Furthermore, the…
Searchable Symmetric Encryption (SSE) allows a data owner to securely outsource its encrypted data to a cloud server while maintaining the ability to search over it and retrieve matched documents. Most existing SSE schemes leak which…
In Near-Neighbor Search (NNS), a new client queries a database (held by a server) for the most similar data (near-neighbors) given a certain similarity metric. The Privacy-Preserving variant (PP-NNS) requires that neither server nor the…
As database deployments shift toward cloud platforms and edge devices, thin clients need to securely retrieve sensitive records without leaking their query intent or metadata to the proxies that mediate access. Oblivious Transfer (OT) is a…
Order-preserving encryption (OPE) has been extensively studied for more than two decades in the context of outsourced databases because OPE is a key enabling technique to allow the outsourced database servers to sort encrypted tuples in…
Motivated by privacy preservation for outsourced data, data-oblivious external memory is a computational framework where a client performs computations on data stored at a semi-trusted server in a way that does not reveal her data to the…
The increasing massive data generated by various sources has given birth to big data analytics. Solving large-scale nonlinear programming problems (NLPs) is one important big data analytics task that has applications in many domains such as…
Human mobility is highly predictable. Individuals tend to only visit a few locations with high frequency, and to move among them in a certain sequence reflecting their habits and daily routine. This predictability has to be taken into…
BlockChain (BC) has attracted tremendous attention due to its immutable nature and the associated security and privacy benefits. BC has the potential to overcome security and privacy challenges of Internet of Things (IoT). However, BC is…
Location-based services (LBSs) have become widely popular. Despite their utility, these services raise concerns for privacy since they require sharing location information with untrusted third parties. In this work, we study privacy-utility…
We develop a privacy-preserving distributed projection least mean squares (LMS) strategy over linear multitask networks, where agents' local parameters of interest or tasks are linearly related. Each agent is interested in not only…
Suppose a client, Alice, has outsourced her data to an external storage provider, Bob, because he has capacity for her massive data set, of size n, whereas her private storage is much smaller--say, of size O(n^{1/r}), for some constant r >…
Users of location-based services (LBSs) are highly vulnerable to privacy risks since they need to disclose, at least partially, their locations to benefit from these services. One possibility to limit these risks is to obfuscate the…
Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning as a Service (PP-MLaaS) enables secure neural network inference by integrating cryptographic primitives such as homomorphic encryption (HE) and multi-party computation (MPC), protecting both client data…
Obfuscation techniques in location-based services (LBSs) have been shown useful to hide the concrete locations of service users, whereas they do not necessarily provide the anonymity. We quantify the anonymity of the location data…
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and the advent of the 5G era, deep learning has received extensive attention from researchers. Broad Learning System (BLS) is a new deep learning model proposed recently, which shows its…
We present a relational MPC framework for secure collaborative analytics on private data with no information leakage. Our work targets challenging use cases where data owners may not have private resources to participate in the computation,…
In this paper, we study a cooperative linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control system with a single user and a server. In this system, the user runs a process and employs the server to meet the needs of computation. However, the user regards…
