Description
In today's age of networked information, our use of the Internet for communication and networked storage exposes us to a wide range of information-based security attacks. Maintaining the confidentiality of our personal information is essential to prevent threats like identity theft, and to protect us from increasingly ubiquitous information gathering services.
In this seminar, we will examine the current state of the art in anonymous and privacy-preserving systems, both in network communication and data storage systems. This includes advances in anonymous routing techniques (variants of Chaum-mix based systems ...) as well as recent work on privacy-enhancing database and query systems.
