Due to the ongoing corona virus pandemic, we will run the PRIVTECH 2020 kick-off event as an online course with a pre-recorded welcome lecture.
Course Contents:
Data is the oil of the 21st century and users leave more and more digital traces that are collected and evaluated by companies like Facebook or Google, as well as by intelligence services.
In this seminar, we will look at techniques for protecting privacy that allow to process sensitive data under encryption without revealing the data itself. We will investigate both the theoretical background as well as practical issues of such solutions.
Small groups of students choose a topic for which they get two or three publications that they will summarize in a written report and present in a talk.
Possible topics include:
- Privacy-preserving biometric identification
- Privacy-preserving mobile applications, e.g., for location-based services
- Privacy-preserving download of files, e.g., for medical or patent databases (Private Information Retrieval)
- Privacy-preserving finding of common contacts or customers (Private Set Intersection)
- Privacy-preserving checking for credit worthiness (Private Function Evaluation with linear complexity)
- Representing functions as data (Universal Circuits)
- Tools for privacy-preserving applications
