In response\, various data privacy laws and regulations have emerged\, forcing the industry to change their practice and bringing the demand for large-scale secure computing to the spotlight. Such a deman d\, however\, cannot be met by the state-of-the-art cryptographic techniqu es\, even with decades of effort\, due to the overheads (speed\, bandwidth consumption) they incur. To narrow the gap\, recent years have seen rapid progress in hardware based trusted execution environments (TEE)\, such as Intel SGX\, AMD SEV and ARM TrustZone\, which enable efficient computatio n on encrypted data within a secure enclave established by a trusted proce ssor. In this talk\, I will present our research on understanding and addr essing the security challenges in this new secure computing paradigm and e nhancing its design to achieve scalability\, for the purpose of supporting accelerated machine learning. Further I will present the big questions th at need to be answered in the area and introduce our genome privacy compet ition as a synergic activity that helps move the science in this area forw ard.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/UK-SPS/8/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
