Privacy and Accountability in the Cloud. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, July 2009, Pages: 84
Privacy and accountability in the cloud explores if
we can achieve a balance between our demand for
privacy, while achieving a level of accountability
that is sufficient for a well functioning democracy.
Neither privacy or accountability are a binary value
- both are better viewed as a continuum. Every
society has its own expectations for both privacy and
accountability. These expectations will vary with
time and current events. The goal here is to explore
if we can reach a way of designing systems in the
cloud that gives each user a strong enough protection
of their privacy, while at the same time proper
authorities can conduct a lawful investigation
without enormous work effort. The proposed solution
must therefore allow individual users to be
investigated, while stopping large scale surveillance
of larger groups of users. This book will benefit
people who are researching, designing, or planning
security in the cloud or similar environments.
