Towards full lifecycle privacy protection on cloud. Privacy protection in user data on cloud is now at risk throughout all stages of user information lifecycle facing significant challenges such as stage adaptive protection, across-system protection, privacy invasion tracing and prediction. Current approaches mainly focus on a specific case at certain stage, hence cannot address those challenges properly by considering all stages. This project aims to systematically investigate those challenges ....Towards full lifecycle privacy protection on cloud. Privacy protection in user data on cloud is now at risk throughout all stages of user information lifecycle facing significant challenges such as stage adaptive protection, across-system protection, privacy invasion tracing and prediction.

The aim of this project is to develop a secure and efficient solution that can detect and prevent leak of data in real-time. Uniquely, the proposed research will develop novel techniques that can monitor data leak security incidents happening over ti ....Secure and efficient data leak prevention on cloud. The leak of sensitive data on cloud not only poses serious threats to both public and private organisations but also puts their employees and clients at risk, e.g., economic loss and social impact. The aim of this project is to develop a secure and efficient solution that can detect and prevent leak of data in real-time. Uniquely, the proposed research will develop novel techniques that can monitor data leak security incidents happening over time and captured by different sensors and identify correlations between historic security incidents and current data attacks. This project will significantly help to secure data on cloud for organisations in Australia and benefit fast-growing security sensitive data hosting and applications on cloud.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop efficient solutions for mobile users to consume location-based services (LBS) without revealing their locations. The project expects to demonstrate the effectiveness of the solutions using theoretic analysis and practical experiments. The expected outcomes are a multiparty trust model, techniques to distribute user location information among multiple location-based services, and a practical system to protect privacy in mobile environments. This should protect the privacy of individuals and increase users’ trust in location-based systems.Read moreRead less
Private searching on streaming data. This project aims to explore secure and practical solutions for various internet search types and to develop a prototype of a private searching system to avoid compromising user privacy whilst sharing query requests. Searching of streaming data allows collection of useful information from huge streaming sources of data such as on-line news feeds and internet chat-rooms. Current solutions for this problem are inefficient and restricted to a couple of simple se ....Private searching on streaming data. This project aims to explore secure and practical solutions for various internet search types and to develop a prototype of a private searching system to avoid compromising user privacy whilst sharing query requests. Searching of streaming data allows collection of useful information from huge streaming sources of data such as on-line news feeds and internet chat-rooms. Current solutions for this problem are inefficient and restricted to a couple of simple search types, and vulnerable to identifying the search requester. The project expects to develop private searching tools to protect the privacy of user's search queries. This will have the potential to detect any attacks to our digital infrastructure while keeping the search criteria classified, and could have applications in Australian counter-terrorism and homeland defence.Read moreRead less
