A $(t,n)-$ threshold signature scheme enables distributed signing among $n$ players such that any subgroup of size $t$ can sign, whereas any group with fewer players cannot. Our goal is to produce signatures that are compatible with an existing centralized signature scheme: the key generation and signature algorithm are replaced by a communication protocol between the parties, but the verification algorithm remains identical to that of a signature issued using the centralized algorithm. Starting from the threshold schemes for the ECDSA signature due to R. Gennaro and S. Goldfeder, we present the first protocol that supports multiparty signatures with an offline participant during the Key Generation Phase, without relying on a trusted third party. Following well-established approaches, we prove our scheme secure against adaptive malicious adversaries.

Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies, facilitating the convenience of payment by providing a decentralized online solution, have not been widely adopted so far due to slow confirmation of transactions. Offline delegation offers an efficient way to excha nge coins. However, in such an approach, the coins that have been delegated confront the risk of being spent twice since the delegators behaviour cannot be restricted easily on account of the absence of effective supervision. Even if a third party can be regarded as a judge between the delegator and delegatee to secure transactions, she still faces the threat of being compromised or providing misleading assure. Moreover, the approach equipped with a third party contradicts the real intention of decentralized cryptocurrency systems. In this paper, we propose textit{DelegaCoin}, an offline delegatable cryptocurrency system to mitigate such an issue. We exploit trusted execution environments (TEEs) as decentralized virtual agents to prevent malicious delegation. In DelegaCoin, an owner can delegate his coins through offline-transactions without interacting with the blockchain network. A formal model and analysis, prototype implementation, and further evaluation demonstrate that our scheme is provably secure and practically feasible.
Privacy preserving multi-party computation has many applications in areas such as medicine and online advertisements. In this work, we propose a framework for distributed, secure machine learning among untrusted individuals. The framework consists of two parts: a two-step training protocol based on homomorphic addition and a zero knowledge proof for data validity. By combining these two techniques, our framework provides privacy of per-user data, prevents against a malicious user contributing corrupted data to the shared pool, enables each user to self-compute the results of the algorithm without relying on external trusted third parties, and requires no private channels between groups of users. We show how different ML algorithms such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Naive Bayes, Decision Trees etc. fit our framework for distributed, secure computing.
In this work, we study how to securely evaluate the value of trading data without requiring a trusted third party. We focus on the important machine learning task of classification. This leads us to propose a provably secure four-round protocol that computes the value of the data to be traded without revealing the data to the potential acquirer. The theoretical results demonstrate a number of important properties of the proposed protocol. In particular, we prove the security of the proposed protocol in the honest-but-curious adversary model.
An increasing number of businesses are replacing their data storage and computation infrastructure with cloud services. Likewise, there is an increased emphasis on performing analytics based on multiple datasets obtained from different data sources. While ensuring security of data and computation outsourced to a third party cloud is in itself challenging, supporting analytics using data distributed across multiple, independent clouds is even further from trivial. In this paper we present CloudMine, a cloud-based service which allows multiple data owners to perform privacy-preserved computation over the joint data using their clouds as delegates. CloudMine protects data privacy with respect to semi-honest data owners and semi-honest clouds. It furthermore ensures the privacy of the computation outputs from the curious clouds. It allows data owners to reliably detect if their cloud delegates have been lazy when carrying out the delegated computation. CloudMine can run as a centralized service on a single cloud, or as a distributed service over multiple, independent clouds. CloudMine supports a set of basic computations that can be used to construct a variety of highly complex, distributed privacy-preserving data analytics. We demonstrate how a simple instance of CloudMine (secure sum service) is used to implement three classical data mining tasks (classification, association rule mining and clustering) in a cloud environment. We experiment with a prototype of the service, the results of which suggest its practicality for supporting privacy-preserving data analytics as a (multi) cloud-based service.

Accurate identification of effective epidemic threshold is essential for understanding epidemic dynamics on complex networks. The existing studies on the effective epidemic threshold of the susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) model generally assume th at all infected nodes immediately recover after the infection process, which more or less does not conform to the realistic situation of disease. In this paper, we systematically study the effect of arbitrary recovery rate on the SIR spreading dynamics on complex networks. We derive the theoretical effective epidemic threshold and final outbreak size based on the edge-based compartmental theory. To validate the proposed theoretical predictions, extensive numerical experiments are implemented by using asynchronous and synchronous updating methods. When asynchronous updating method is used in simulations, recovery rate does not affect the final state of spreading dynamics. But with synchronous updating, we find that the effective epidemic threshold decreases with recovery rate, and final outbreak size increases with recovery rate. A good agreement between the theoretical predictions and numerical results are observed on both synthetic and real-world networks. Our results extend the existing theoretical studies, and help us to understand the phase transition with arbitrary recovery rate.
