چکیده

We propose a language that allows agents to distribute data with usage policies in a decentralized architecture. In our framework, the compliance with usage policies is not enforced. However, agents may be audited by an authority at an arbitrary moment in time. We design a logic that allows audited agents to prove their actions, and to prove their authorization to posses particular data. Accountability is defined in several flavors, including agent accountability and data accountability. Finally, we show the soundness of the logic.

Securing data accountability in decentralized systems

We consider a decentralized setting in which agents exchange data along with usage policies. Agents may violate the intended usage policies, although later on auditing authorities may verify the agents’ data accountability with respect to the intended policies. Using timestamping and signature schemes, we design and analyze an efficient cryptographic protocol generating communication evidences ...

Securing Data Accountability in Decentralized Systems

We consider a decentralized setting in which agents exchange data along with usage policies. Agents may violate the policies, although later on auditing authorities may verify the agents’ accountability with respect to the used data. Using (provably secure) time-stamping and signature schemes, we design and analyze an efficient cryptographic protocol that generates the sufficient communication ...
