Start with a database backend (e.g., IBM’s “multitier”) Make it distributed with distributed transactional interface Keep strong consistency (ACID properties) Allow large numbers of concurrent transactions Horizontal scalability is the key Vertical scalability is a dead end “NoSQL”: Buzzword for horizontally scalable databases that typically don’t have a complete SQL interface Key/value store or column-oriented ↑ our choice (simplicity) The NoSQL Controversy NoSQL is a current trend in non-relational databases May lack table schemas, may lack ACID properties, no join operations Main advantages are excellent performance, with good horizontal scalability and elasticity (ideal fit to clouds) SQL databases have good vertical scalability but are not elastic Often only weak consistency guarantees, such as eventual consistency (e.g., Google BigTable) Some exceptions: Cassandra also provides strong consistency, Scalaris and Beernet provide a key-value store with transactions and strong consistency Distribution structure Two main infrastructures for large-scale applications Peer-to-peer: use of client machines ← our choice (loosely coupled) Very popular style, e.g., BitTorrent, Skype, Wuala, etc.

  • Online Security for Independent Media and Civil Society Activists
    Online Security for Independent Media and Civil Society Activists A white paper for SIDA’s October 2010 “Exile Media” conference Eric S Johnson (updated 13 Oct 2013) For activists who make it a priority to deliver news to citizens of countries which try to control the information to which their citizens have access, the internet has provided massive new opportunities. But those countries’ governments also realise ICTs’ potential and implement countermeasures to impede the delivery of independent news via the internet. This paper covers what exile media can or should do to protect itself, addressing three categories of issues: common computer security precautions, defense against targeted attacks, and circumventing cybercensorship, with a final note about overkill (aka FUD: fear, uncertainty, doubt). For each of the issues mentioned below, specific ex- amples from within the human rights or freedom of expression world can be provided where non-observance was cata- strophic, but most of those who suffered problems would rather not be named. [NB Snowden- gate changed little or nothing about these recommendations.] Common computer security: The best defense is a good … (aka “lock your doors”) The main threats to exile media’s successful use of ICTs—and solutions—are the same as for any other computer user: 1) Ensure all software automatically patches itself regularly against newly-discovered secu- rity flaws (e.g. to maintain up-to-date SSL certificate revocation lists). As with antivirus software, this may cost something; e.g. with Microsoft (Windows and Office), it may re- quire your software be legally purchased (or use the WSUS Offline Update tool, which helps in low-bandwidth environments).

  • (More) Side Channels in Cloud Storage Linking Data to Users
    (More) Side Channels in Cloud Storage Linking Data to Users Tobias Pulls Department of Computer Science Karlstad University Karlstad, Sweden [email protected] Abstract. Public cloud storage services are gaining in popularity and several commercial actors are offering their services for users, however, not always with the security and privacy of their users as the primary design goal. This paper investigates side channels in public cloud storage services that allow the service provider, and in some cases users of the same service, to learn who has stored a given file and to profile users' usage of the service. These side channels are present in several public cloud storage services that are marketed as secure and privacy-friendly. Our conclusions are that cross-user deduplication should be disabled by default and that public cloud storage services need to be designed to provide unlinkability of users and data, even if the data is encrypted by users before storing it in the cloud. 1 Introduction The setting for this paper is that of cloud storage services, where a service provider offers a service for users to store their data in the cloud. Commercial cloud storage services such as Dropbox [8], SpiderOak [21], Tarsnap [22], and Wuala [28] provide storage for millions of users and are gaining in popularity. These cloud storage services are all public clouds, that is, they are available to the general public over the Internet [16]. For so called private clouds [16], in the case of all infrastructure being completely operated by the entity using the infrastructure, the issues raised in this paper are in part or completely non- issues.
