Benchmarks are important measures to evaluate safety and compliance of AI models at scale. However, they typically do not offer verifiable results and lack confidentiality for model IP and benchmark datasets. We propose Attestable Audits,…
Accountability is a recent paradigm in security protocol design which aims to eliminate traditional trust assumptions on parties and hold them accountable for their misbehavior. It is meant to establish trust in the first place and to…
Transparency and accountability are indispensable principles for modern data protection, from both, legal and technical viewpoints. Regulations such as the GDPR, therefore, require specific transparency information to be provided including,…
Quantum private query (QPQ) is the quantum version for symmetrically private retrieval. However, the user privacy in QPQ is generally guarded in the non-realtime and cheat sensitive way. That is, the dishonest database holder's cheating to…
Zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) frameworks have the potential to revolutionize the handling of sensitive data in various domains. However, deploying ZKP frameworks with real-world data presents several challenges, including scalability,…
Even with the vast potential that cloud computing has, so far, it has not been adopted by the consumers with the enthusiasm and pace that it be worthy; this is a very reason statement why consumers still hesitated of using cloud computing…
Modern cloud-based AI training relies on extensive telemetry and logs to ensure accountability. While these audit trails enable retrospective inspection, they struggle to address the inherent non-determinism of deep learning. Stochastic…
The level of trust accorded to certification authorities has been decreasing over the last few years as several cases of misbehavior and compromise have been observed. Log-based approaches, such as Certificate Transparency, ensure that…
This review discusses the theoretical frameworks and application prospects of Zero Trust Security (ZTS) in cloud computing context. This is because, as organisations move more of their applications and data to the cloud, the old…
Cloud computing is an opened and distributed network that guarantees access to a large amount of data and IT infrastructure at several levels (software, hardware...). With the increase demand, handling clients' needs is getting increasingly…
Existing agent communication frameworks face critical limitations in providing verifiable audit trails without compromising the privacy and confidentiality of agent interactions. The protection of agent communication privacy while ensuring…
In recent years, there has been increasing recognition of the benefits of having services provide auditable logs of data, as demonstrated by the deployment of Certificate Transparency and the development of other transparency projects. Most…
Security issues are the most challenging problems in cloud computing environments as an emerging technology. Regarding to this importance, an efficient and reliable user authentication and data protection model has been presented in this…
Given that reliable cloud quantum computers are becoming closer to reality, the concept of delegation of quantum computations and its verifiability is of central interest. Many models have been proposed, each with specific strengths and…
The efficient certification of classically intractable quantum devices has been a central research question for some time. However, to observe a "quantum advantage", it is believed that one does not need to build a large scale universal…
Securing cloud configurations is an elusive task, which is left up to system administrators who have to base their decisions on ``trial and error'' experimentations or by observing good practices (e.g., CIS Benchmarks). We propose a…
Though not yet widely deployed, password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) protocols have been the subject of several recent standardization efforts, partly because of their resistance against various guessing attacks, but also because they…
This paper introduces a robust zero-trust architecture (ZTA) tailored for the decentralized system that empowers efficient remote work and collaboration within IoT networks. Using blockchain-based federated learning principles, our proposed…
Cloud availability is a major performance parameter for cloud platforms, but there are very few measurements on commercial platforms, and most of them rely on outage reports as appeared on specialized sites, providers' dashboards, or the…
Cloud computing is significantly reshaping the computing industry built around core concepts such as virtualization, processing power, connectivity and elasticity to store and share IT resources via a broad network. It has emerged as the…
