A scientific paper entitled “PaaSword: A Holistic Data Privacy and Security by Design Framework for Cloud Services” has been co-authored by UBITECH and presented at the 5th International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science (CLOSER 2015), which was took place in Lisbon, Portugal from 20-22 May, 2015. At this position paper, Panagiotis Gouvas (UBITECH’s R&D Director), along with other co-authors, outlines significant security challenges presented when migrating to a cloud environment and describes a novel holistic framework that aspires to alleviate these challenges, corresponding to a high level description of the vision of the PaaSword H2020 project. The presentation raised interest among the audience especially regarding the context-aware security by design proposed scheme and the symmetric searchable encryption envisioned.
