SDB: A Secure Query Processing System with Data Interoperability

Abstract

We address security issues in a cloud database system which em- ploys the DBaaS model — a data owner (DO) exports data to a cloud database service provider (SP). To provide data security, sensitive data is encrypted by the DO before it is uploaded to the SP. Compared to existing secure query processing systems like CryptDB [7] and MONOMI [8], in which data operations (e.g., comparison or addition) are supported by specialized encryption schemes, our demo system, SDB, is implemented based on a set of data- interoperable secure operators, i.e., the output of an operator can be used as input of another operator. As a result, SDB can sup- port a wide range of complex queries (e.g., all TPC-H queries) efficiently. In this demonstration, we show how our SDB prototype supports secure query processing on complex workload like TPC-H. We also demonstrate how our system protects sensitive in- formation from malicious attackers.
