Strong confidentiality, integrity, user control, reliability and performance are critical requirements in privacy-sensitive applications. Such applications would benefit from a data storage and sharing infrastructure that provides these…
Global corporations (e.g., Google and Microsoft) have recently introduced a new model of cloud services, fuzzing-as-a-service (FaaS). Despite effectively alleviating the cost of fuzzing, the model comes with privacy concerns. For example,…
A common approach to securing end-to-end connectivity between devices on the Internet is to utilise a cloud-based intermediary. With this reliance upon a third-party comes a set of security and privacy concerns that are difficult to…
Cloud computing is an upcoming technology that has been designed for commercial needs. One of the major issues in cloud computing is the difficulty to manage federated identities and the trust between the user and the service providers.…
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is a popular model which maps roles to access permissions for resources and then roles to the users to provide access control. Role-Based Encryption (RBE) is a cryptographic form of RBAC model that…
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.…
Trusted Computing is a security base technology that will perhaps be ubiquitous in a few years in personal computers and mobile devices alike. Despite its neutrality with respect to applications, it has raised some privacy concerns. We show…
Feature engineering is the process of using domain knowledge to extract features from raw data via data mining techniques and is a key step to improve the performance of machine learning algorithms. In the multi-party feature engineering…
Homomorphic encryption is a sophisticated encryption technique that allows computations on encrypted data to be done without the requirement for decryption. This trait makes homomorphic encryption appropriate for safe computation in…
We analyse the security of some variants of the CFS code-based digital signature scheme. We show how the adoption of some code-based hash-functions to improve the efficiency of CFS leads to the ability of an attacker to produce a forgery…
An increasing number of businesses are replacing their data storage and computation infrastructure with cloud services. Likewise, there is an increased emphasis on performing analytics based on multiple datasets obtained from different data…
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…
Personal cryptographic keys are the foundation of many secure services, but storing these keys securely is a challenge, especially if they are used from multiple devices. Storing keys in a centralized location, like an Internet-accessible…
Passwords are a fragile, inadequate, and insecure tool for authenticating users, and are especially fraught with problems when used to secure access to network resources and services. In many cases, passwords provide a false sense of…
Cloud computing has made storing and accessing data easier but keeping it secure is a big challenge nowadays. Traditional methods of ensuring data may not be strong enough in the future when powerful quantum computers become available. To…
In the Internet of Things and smart environments data, collected from distributed sensors, is typically stored and processed by a central middleware. This allows applications to query the data they need for providing further services.…
The concept of cloud computing was introduced to meet the increase in demand for new application for a project, and to provide a large storage facility whenever or wherever a user needs it. The cloud system facility helped many industries…
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…
Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative training while keeping sensitive data on clients' devices, but local model updates can still leak private information. Hybrid Homomorphic Encryption (HHE) has recently been applied to FL to…
Warnings have been raised about the steady diminution of privacy. More and more personal information, such as that contained electronic mail, is moving to cloud computing servers where it might be machine-searched and indexed. FauxCrypt is…
