A Secure Data Sharing and Query Processing Framework via Federation of Cloud Computing

Prof. Sanjay K Madria,
Missouri University of Science and Technology –
Abstract:
Due to cost-efficiency and less hands-on management, data owners are outsourcing their data to the cloud, which can provide access to the data as a service. However, by outsourcing their data, the data owners lose control and privacy, as the cloud provider becomes a third party service provider. At first, encrypting the data by the owner and then exporting it to the cloud seems to be a good approach to preserve the privacy. However, there is a potential efficiency problem with the outsourced encrypted data when the data owner revokes some of the users’ access privileges. An existing solution to this problem is based on symmetric key encryption scheme but it is not secure when a revoked user rejoins the system with different access privileges for the same data record. In this talk, I will discuss an efficient and Secure Data Sharing (SDS) framework using a homomorphic encryption and proxy re-encryption scheme that prevents the leakage of unauthorized data when a revoked user rejoins the system. I will also discuss modification to the underlying SDS framework and present a new solution based on the data distribution technique to prevent the information leakage in the case of collusion between a revoked user and the cloud service provider. A comparison of the proposed solution with existing methods is provided in detail. Furthermore, I will demonstrate how the existing work can be utilized in the proposed framework to support secure query processing. I will provide a detailed experimental analysis of the proposed framework on Amazon EC2 and discuss its practical relevance.

The 13th Lisbon Machine Learning School | LxMLS 2023

The Lisbon Machine Learning Summer School (LxMLS) takes place yearly at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST). LxMLS 2023 will be a 6-day event (14-20 July, 2023), scheduled to take place as an in-person event.
The school covers a range of machine learning topics, from theory to practice, that are important in solving natural language processing problems arising in different application areas. It is organized jointly by Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), a leading Engineering and Science school in Portugal, the Instituto de Telecomunicações, the Instituto de Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores, Investigação e Desenvolvimento em Lisboa (INESC-ID), the Lisbon ELLIS Unit for Learning and Intelligent Systems (LUMLIS), Unbabel, Zendesk, and IBM Research.

31st International Conference on Information Systems Development (ISD 2023)

The 31st International Conference on Information Systems Development (ISD 2023) conference provides a forum for research and developments in the field of information systems. The theme of ISD 2023 is “Information systems development, organizational aspects and societal trends”. New trends in developing information systems emphasize the continuous collaboration between developers and operators in order to optimize the software delivery time. The conference promotes research on methodological and technological issues and how IS developers and operators are transforming organizations and society through information systems.
The ISD 2023 conference held this year also provides an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to promote their research, practical experience, and to discuss issues related to Information Systems through papers, posters, and journal-first paper presentations.
ISD 2023 will be hosted by Instituto Superior Técnico, in Lisbon, Portugal, on August 30–September 1, 2023.
