Trust in the Cloud
EIT ICT Labs activity
Duration: January 2013 until December 2013
Contact: J.I. den Hartog
Description
Cloud based infrastructures enable seamless access to services and global availability of information, giving enormous potential for improved level of services being provided as well as reductions in cost. Yet, data becoming mobile and shared between services brings with it new challenges with respect to privacy, security and trust, especially in areas with sensitive data such as healthcare services. Trust in the Cloud aims at privacy protection and trust establishment in the cloud by providing trust and security mechanisms suitable for heterogeneous distributed service networks. Within this activity the security group at the TU/e focusses on trust policy evaluation.
