Efficient Privacy Preserving Distributed Clustering Based on Secret Sharing
In this paper, we propose a privacy preserving distributed
clustering protocol for horizontally partitioned data based on a very efficient
homomorphic additive secret sharing scheme. The model we use
for the protocol is novel in the sense that it utilizes two non-colluding
third parties. We provide a brief security analysis of our protocol from
information theoretic point of view, which is a stronger security model.
We show communication and computation complexity analysis of our
protocol along with another protocol previously proposed for the same
problem. We also include experimental results for computation and communication
overhead of these two protocols. Our protocol not only outperforms
the others in execution time and communication overhead on
data holders, but also uses a more efficient model for many data mining
applications
Energy efficient privacy preserved data gathering in wireless sensor networks having multiple sinks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) generally have a many-to-one structure so that event information flows from sensors to a unique sink. In recent WSN applications, many-tomany structures are evolved due to need for conveying collected event information to multiple sinks at the same time. This study proposes an anonymity method bases on k-anonymity for preventing record disclosure of collected event information in WSNs. Proposed method takes the anonymity requirements of multiple sinks into consideration by providing different levels of privacy for each destination sink. Attributes, which may identify of an event owner, are generalized or encrypted in order to
meet the different anonymity requirements of sinks. Privacy guaranteed event information can be multicasted to all sinks instead of sending to each sink one by one. Since minimization of energy consumption is an important design criteria for WSNs, our method enables us to multicast the same event information
to multiple sinks and reduce energy consumption
Secure Algorithm for File Sharing Using Clustering Technique of K-Means Clustering
In the current scenario The Security is most or of at most importance when we are talking about file transferring in networks. In the thesis, the work has design a new innovative algorithm to securely transfer the data over network. The k –means clustering algorithm, introduced by MacQueen in 1967 is a broadly utilized plan to solve the clustering problem. It classifies a given arrangement of n-information focuses in m-dimensional space into k-clusters whose focuses are gotten by the centroids. The issue with the privacy consideration has been examined, and that is the data is distributed among various gatherings and the disseminated information is to be safeguarded. In this thesis, created chucks or parts of file using the K-Means Clustering Algorithm and the individual part is encrypted using the key which is shared between sender and receiver. Further, the bunched records have been encoded by utilizing AES encryption algorithm with the introduction of private key concept covertly shared between the involved parties which gives a superior security state
SANNS: Scaling Up Secure Approximate k-Nearest Neighbors Search
The -Nearest Neighbor Search (-NNS) is the backbone of several
cloud-based services such as recommender systems, face recognition, and
database search on text and images. In these services, the client sends the
query to the cloud server and receives the response in which case the query and
response are revealed to the service provider. Such data disclosures are
unacceptable in several scenarios due to the sensitivity of data and/or privacy
laws.
In this paper, we introduce SANNS, a system for secure -NNS that keeps
client's query and the search result confidential. SANNS comprises two
protocols: an optimized linear scan and a protocol based on a novel sublinear
time clustering-based algorithm. We prove the security of both protocols in the
standard semi-honest model. The protocols are built upon several
state-of-the-art cryptographic primitives such as lattice-based additively
homomorphic encryption, distributed oblivious RAM, and garbled circuits. We
provide several contributions to each of these primitives which are applicable
to other secure computation tasks. Both of our protocols rely on a new circuit
for the approximate top- selection from numbers that is built from comparators.
We have implemented our proposed system and performed extensive experimental
results on four datasets in two different computation environments,
demonstrating more than faster response time compared to
optimally implemented protocols from the prior work. Moreover, SANNS is the
first work that scales to the database of 10 million entries, pushing the limit
by more than two orders of magnitude.Comment: 18 pages, to appear at USENIX Security Symposium 202
