New Paradigm Of Inference Control With Trusted Computing, Yanjiang Yang, Yingjiu Li, Robert H. Deng Nov 2006

New Paradigm Of Inference Control With Trusted Computing, Yanjiang Yang, Yingjiu Li, Robert H. Deng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The database server is a crucial bottleneck in traditional inference control architecture, as it enforces highly computation-intensive auditing for all users who query the protected database. As a result, most auditing methods, though rigorously studied, can never be implemented in practice for protecting largescale real-world database systems. To shift this paradigm, we propose a new inference control architecture that will entrust inference control to each users platform, provided that the platform is equipped with trusted computing technology. The trusted computing technology is designed to attest the state of a users platform to the database server, so as to assure the …


Privacy Enhanced Superdistribution Of Layered Content With Trusted Access Control, Daniel J. T. Chong, Robert H. Deng Oct 2006

Privacy Enhanced Superdistribution Of Layered Content With Trusted Access Control, Daniel J. T. Chong, Robert H. Deng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Traditional superdistribution approaches do not address consumer privacy issues and also do not reliably prevent the malicious consumer from indiscriminately copying and redistributing the decryption keys or the decrypted content. The layered nature of common digital content can also be exploited to efficiently provide the consumer with choices over the quality of the content, allowing him/her to pay less for lower quality consumption and vice versa. This paper presents a system that superdistributes encrypted layered content and (1) allows the consumer to select a quality level at which to decrypt and consume the content; (2) prevents the merchant from knowing …
