Privacy under threat – The intersection of IoT and mass surveillance by Siniša Domazet, Darko Marković, Tatjana Skakavac

“…It has been shown that there are issues with applying existing regulations to IoT and mass surveillance and that no universal legal framework currently exists to protect the right to privacy. The use of IoT technology, especially given the rapid development of artificial intelligence, will in the future raise numerous dilemmas regarding the entities responsible for collecting personal data, the consents required for data usage and processing, where the collected personal data will be used, and for what purposes. …”

Enhancing Data Security in Distributed Systems Using Homomorphic Encryption and Secure Computation Techniques by Parihar Bhawana, Kiran Ajmeera, Valaboju Sabitha, Rashid Syed Zahidur, Liyakat Kazi Kutubuddin Sayyad, D R Anita Sofia Liz

“…Traditional solutions tend to use standard techniques like basic data wrapping and cryptographic 'rings'; but, due to the design properties required, they end up as lightweight mechanisms, usually not interpretation-at-all capable because of the need for protecting data during processing - leaving these applications hard to use and maintain long-term, or otherwise, limited to cloud computing and federated learning, when individual data types can be worked on within providers like AWS, Azure, etc, etc; or, even, explaining the results with near total indifference to the underlying big data tools, analytics, or neural architectures. …”

Efficient privacy-preserving image retrieval scheme over outsourced data with multi-user by Xiangyu WANG, Jianfeng MA, Yinbin MIAO

“…The traditional privacy-preserving image retrieval schemes not only bring large computational and communication overhead,but also cannot protect the image and query privacy in multi-user scenarios.To solve above problems,an efficient privacy-preserving content-based image retrieval scheme was proposed in multi-user scenarios.The scheme used Euclidean distance comparison technique to rank the pictures according to similarity of picture feature vectors and return top-k returned.Meanwhile,the efficient key conversion protocol designed in proposed image retrieval scheme allowed each search user to generate queries based on his own private key so that he can retrieval encrypted images generated by different data owners.Strict security analysis shows that the user privacy and cloud data security can be well protected during the image retrieval process,and the performance analysis using real-world dataset shows that the proposed image retrieval scheme is efficient and feasible in practical applications.…”

Shuffled differential privacy protection method for K-Modes clustering data collection and publication by Weijin JIANG, Yilin CHEN, Yuqing HAN, Yuting WU, Wei ZHOU, Haijuan WANG

“…Aiming at the current problem of insufficient security in clustering data collection and publication, in order to protect user privacy and improve data quality in clustering data, a privacy protection method for K-Modes clustering data collection and publication was proposed without trusted third parties based on the shuffled differential privacy model.K-Modes clustering data collection algorithm was used to sample the user data and add noise, and then the initial order of the sampled data was disturbed by filling in the value domain random arrangement publishing algorithm.The malicious attacker couldn’t identify the target user according to the relationship between the user and the data, and then to reduce the interference of noise as much as possible a new centroid was calculated by cyclic iteration to complete the clustering.Finally, the privacy, feasibility and complexity of the above three methods were analyzed from the theoretical level, and the accuracy and entropy of the three real data sets were compared with the authoritative similar algorithms KM, DPLM and LDPKM in recent years to verify the effectiveness of the proposed model.The experimental results show that the privacy protection and data quality of the proposed method are superior to the current similar algorithms.…”
