The PaaSword consortium successfully demonstrated the results of the first 18 months during the first project review on 30th of September at the European Commission in Brussels. These results included the first release (by UBITECH and INTRASOFT) of the PaaSword Framework – a holistic data privacy and security by design framework that helps to protect sensitive data in the cloud. This includes among others mechanisms for flexible context-aware access control and security policies, innovative encryption and data fragmentation as well as distributed key management. A plug-in for the cloud-based Eclipse Che IDE supports cloud developers to create secure cloud applications, allowing standardized security- and privacy- related annotations at code level. The committee of external reviewers have been quite enthusiastic about the results; especially about the live, end-to-end demo of the PaaSword platform that UBITECH presented, which they said to be “very impressive”.
