CloSer Cloud-assisted Security Services

The trend of moving previously local services to a cloud setting has become pervasive and pronounced. Security services are no exception: cloud-assisted variants of antimalware, intrusion detection, secure storage, and application/website reputation tools and services are already being deployed. However, naïve adaptation of services to a cloud setting can give rise to new security and privacy problems. The goal of this proposal is to show how we can build effective cloud-assisted security services for organizations and individuals by designing novel security, privacy and data analytics techniques..
