报告题目：Verifiable Delegation of Computing over Outsourced Encrypted Data

报告摘要

Cloud Computing, while promising, brings a new range of security problems. One class of the problems are rooted in that the cloud vendors are untrusted, meaning that they can be malicious by birth or become malicious after being compromised. In order to deal with such threats,the data outsourced to clouds are ought to be encrypted. This however introduces another difficult problem: How can the cloud users trust the output of some computing tasks that are conducted by an untrusted cloud over their outsourced encrypted data (“delegation of computing”)?

In this talk, we discuss two problems of this kind:

(1) How can a data owner grant data users keyword search capability over its outsourced encrypted data in the cloud according to an access control policy, while able to hold a dishonest cloud accountable?

(2) How can database queriers assure that the cloud faithfully executed SQL queries over encrypted database?

The talk is based on joint works with Giuseppe Ateniese and Qingji Zheng.
