During the last few years, the explosion of Big Data has prompted cloud infrastructures to provide cloud-based database services as cost effective, efficient and scalable solutions to store and process large volume of data. Hence, NoSQL databases became more and more popular because of their inherent features of better performance and high scalability compared to other relational databases. However, with this deployment architecture where the information is stored in a public cloud, protection against the sensitive data is still being a major concern. Since the data owner does not have the full control over his sensitive data in a cloud-based database solution, many organizations are reluctant to move forward with Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) solutions. Some of the recent work addressed this issue by introducing additional layers to provide encryption mechanisms to encrypt data, however, these approaches are more application specific and they need to be properly evaluated to ensure whether they can achieve high performance with the scalability when it comes to large volume of data in a cloud-based production environment. This paper proposes a practical system design and implementation to provide Security-as-a-Service for NoSQL databases (SEC-NoSQL) while supporting the execution of query over encrypted data with guaranteed level of system performance. Several different models of implementations are proposed, and their performance is evaluated using YCSB benchmark considering large number of clients processing simultaneously. Experimental results show that our design fits well on encrypted data while maintaining the high performance and scalability. Moreover, to deploy our solution as a cloud-based service, a practical guide establishing Service Level Agreement (SLA) is also included.

NoSQL databases like Redis, Cassandra, and MongoDB are increasingly popular because they are flexible, lightweight, and easy to work with. Applications that use these databases will evolve over time, sometimes necessitating (or preferring) a change t o the format or organization of the data. The problem we address in this paper is: How can we support the evolution of high-availability applications and their NoSQL data online, without excessive delays or interruptions, even in the presence of backward-incompatible data format changes? We present KVolve, an extension to the popular Redis NoSQL database, as a solution to this problem. KVolve permits a developer to submit an upgrade specification that defines how to transform existing data to the newest version. This transformation is applied lazily as applications interact with the database, thus avoiding long pause times. We demonstrate that KVolve is expressive enough to support substantial practical updates, including format changes to RedisFS, a Redis-backed file system, while imposing essentially no overhead in general use and minimal pause times during updates.
Big data systems development is full of challenges in view of the variety of application areas and domains that this technology promises to serve. Typically, fundamental design decisions involved in big data systems design include choosing appropriat e storage and computing infrastructures. In this age of heterogeneous systems that integrate different technologies for development of an optimized solution to a specific real world problem, big data systems are not an exception to any such rule. As far as the storage aspect of any big data system is concerned, the primary facet in this regard is a storage infrastructure and NoSQL is the right technology that fulfills its requirements. However, every big data application has variable data characteristics and thus, the corresponding data fits into a different data model. Moreover, the requirements of different applications vary on the basis of budget and functionality. This paper presents a feature analysis of 80 NoSQL solutions, elaborating on the criteria and points that a developer must consider while making a possible choice. Bivariate analysis of dataset created for the identified NoSQL solutions was performed to establish relationship between 9 features. Furthermore, cluster analysis of the dataset was used to create categories of solutions to present a statistically supported classification scheme. Finally, applications for different solutions were reviewed and classified under domain-specific categories. Random forest classification was used to determine the most relevant features for applications and correspondingly a decision tree-based prediction model was proposed, implemented and deployed in the form of a web application to determine the suitability of a NoSQL solution for an application area.
We propose the client-side AES256 encryption for a cloud SQL DB. A column ciphertext is deterministic or probabilistic. We trust the cloud DBMS for security of its run-time values, e.g., through a moving target defense. The client may send AES key(s) with the query. These serve the on-the-fly decryption of selected ciphertext into plaintext for query evaluation. The DBMS clears the key(s) and the plaintext at the query end at latest. It may deliver ciphertext to decryption enabled clients or plaintext otherwise, e.g., to browsers/navigators. The scheme functionally offers to a cloud DBMS capabilities of a plaintext SQL DBMS. AES processing overhead appears negligible for a modern CPU, e.g., a popular Intel I5. The determin-istic encryption may have no storage overhead. The probabilistic one doubles the DB storage. The scheme seems the first generally practical for an outsourced encrypted SQL DB. An implementation sufficient to practice with appears easy. An existing cloud SQL DBMS with UDF support should do.

This study reports on an implementation of cryptographic pairings in a general purpose computer algebra system. For security levels equivalent to the different AES flavours, we exhibit suitable curves in parametric families and show that optimal ate and twisted ate pairings exist and can be efficiently evaluated. We provide a correct description of Millers algorithm for signed binary expansions such as the NAF and extend a recent variant due to Boxall et al. to addition-subtraction chains. We analyse and compare several algorithms proposed in the literature for the final exponentiation. Finally, we ive recommendations on which curve and pairing to choose at each security level.
In modern information systems different information features, about the same individual, are often collected and managed by autonomous data collection services that may have different privacy policies. Answering many end-users legitimate queries requ ires the integration of data from multiple such services. However, data integration is often hindered by the lack of a trusted entity, often called a mediator, with which the services can share their data and delegate the enforcement of their privacy policies. In this paper, we propose a flexible privacy-preserving data integration approach for answering data integration queries without the need for a trusted mediator. In our approach, services are allowed to enforce their privacy policies locally. The mediator is considered to be untrusted, and only has access to encrypted information to allow it to link data subjects across the different services. Services, by virtue of a new privacy requirement, dubbed k-Protection, limiting privacy leaks, cannot infer information about the data held by each other. End-users, in turn, have access to privacy-sanitized data only. We evaluated our approach using an example and a real dataset from the healthcare application domain. The results are promising from both the privacy preservation and the performance perspectives.
