In cloud storage environment, deduplication enables efficient use of the storage. Also, in order to save network bandwidth, cloud storage service provider has introduced client-side deduplication. Cloud storage service users want to upload encrypted data to ensure confidentiality. However, common encryption method cannot be combined with deduplication, because each user uses a different private key. Also, client-side deduplication can be vulnerable to security threats because file tag replaces the entire file. Recently, proof of ownership schemes have suggested to remedy the vulnerabilities of client-side deduplication. Nevertheless, client-side deduplication over encrypted data still causes problems in efficiency and security. In this paper, we propose a secure and practical client-side encrypted data deduplication scheme that has resilience to brute force attack and performs proof of ownership over encrypted data.

In this paper, we introduce the client side cache of distributed file system for enhancing read performance by eliminating the network latency and decreasing the back-end storage burden. This performance enhancement can expand the fields of distributed file system to not only cloud storage service but also high performance storage service. This paper shows that the distributed file system with client side SSD cache can satisfy the requirements of VDI(Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) storage. The experimental results show that full-clone is more than 2 times faster and boot time is more than 3 times faster than NFS.

A web-based platform for structural analysis has been developed. The proposed web-based platform is a 2-tier system composed o( client and server sides to reduce the overburden on the server side. Smart Client is applied for the client side to improve the handling speed and UI. For the server side, MSSQL is applied to deal with database and used as a storage for the web. XML WebService is adpoted for the networking between the client and the server. To examine the efficiency of the developed web-based platform a sample study is carried out with a nonlinear earthquake analysis on a SDOF system.

Deduplication, which is a technique of eliminating redundant data by storing only a single copy of each data, provides clients and a cloud server with efficiency for managing stored data. Since the data is saved in untrusted public cloud server, however, both invasion of data privacy and data loss can be occurred. Over recent years, although many studies have been proposed secure deduplication schemes, there still remains both the security problems causing serious damages and inefficiency. In this paper, we propose secure and efficient client-side deduplication with Key-server based on Bellare et. al's scheme and challenge-response method. Furthermore, we point out potential risks of client-side deduplication and show that our scheme is secure against various attacks and provides high efficiency for uploading big size of data.

Memcached, commonly used to speed up the data access in big-data and Internet-web applications, is a system software of the distributed-cache mechanism. But it is subject to the severe challenge of the loss of recently uncommitted updates in the case where the Memcached servers crash due to some reason. Although the replica scheme and the disk-log-based replay mechanism have been proposed to overcome this problem, they generate either the overhead of the replica synchronization or the persistent-storage overhead that is caused by flushing related logs. This paper proposes a scheme of backing up the write requests (i.e., set and add) on the Memcached client side, to reduce the overhead resulting from the making of disk-log records or performing the replica consistency. If the Memcached server fails, a timestamp-based recovery mechanism is then introduced to replay the write requests (buffered by relevant clients), for regaining the lost-data updates on the rebooted Memcached server, thereby meeting the data-consistency requirement. More importantly, compared with the mechanism of logging the write requests to the persistent storage of the master server and the server-replication scheme, the newly proposed approach of backing up the logs on the client side can greatly decrease the time overhead by up to 116.8% when processing the write workloads.

A web-based platform for nonlinear earthquake analysis on SDOF systems has been developed in the research. The proposed web-based platform is a 2-tier system composed of client and server sides. Smart Client is applied for the client side to improve the handling speed and UI compatible to the stand alone systems. For the server side, MSSQL is used as a storage for the web. XML WebService is adpoted for the networking between client and server. To examine the efficiency of the developed web-based platform, a trial study on a SDOF nonlinear structural system under earthquake excitation has been carried out.

HTML5 has developed not to have browser dependancy considering interoperability as same as maintaining compatability with lower versions of HTML. HTML5, the newest web standardization is on going of being structured. Along with the smart phone boom, HTML5 is spotlighted because it can be applied to cross platforms in mobile web environments. Specially the local Storage that has been listed in new features in HTML5 supports offline function for web application that enables web application to be run even when the mobile is not connected to 3G or wifi. With Local storage, development of server-independent web application can be possible. However Local storage stores plaintext data in it without applying any security measure and this makes the plaintext data dangerous to security threats that are already exist in other client side storages like Cookie. In the paper we propose secure Local storage methods to offer a safe way to store and retrieve data in Local storage guaranteeing its performance. Suggested functions in this paper follow localStorage standard API and use a module that provide cryptographic function. We also prove the efficiency of suggested secure Local storage based on its performance evaluation with implementation.

Developing methods to search over an encrypted database (EDB) have received a lot of attention in the last few years. Among them, order-revealing encryption (OREnc) and order-preserving encryption (OPEnc) are the core parts in the case of range queries. Recently, some ideally-secure OPEnc schemes whose ciphertexts reveal no additional information beyond the order of the underlying plaintexts have been proposed. However, these schemes either require a large round complexity or a large persistent client-side storage of size O(n) where n denotes the number of encrypted items stored in EDB. In this work, we propose a new construction of an efficient OPEnc scheme based on an OREnc scheme. Security of our construction inherits the security of the underlying OREnc scheme. Moreover, we also show that the construction of a non-interactive ideally-secure OPEnc scheme with a constant client-side storage is theoretically possible from our construction.

While many users searched for insurance information online, there were not many cases of contents recommendation researches on insurance companies' websites. Therefore, this study proposed a page recommendation system with high possibility of preference to users by utilizing page visit history of insurance companies' websites. Data was collected by using client-side storage that occurs when using a web browser. Collaborative filtering was applied to research as a recommendation technique. As a result of experiment, we showed good performance in item-based collaborative (IBCF) based on Jaccard index using binary data which means visit or not. In the future, it will be possible to implement a content recommendation system that matches the marketing strategy when used in a company by studying recommendation technology that weights items.

In cloud storage, processing the duplicated data, namely deduplication, is necessary technology to save storage space. Users who store sensitive data in remote storage want data be encrypted. However Cloud storage server do not detect duplication of conventionally encrypted data. To solve this problem, Convergent Encryption has been proposed. But it inherently have weakness due to brute-force attack. On the other hand, to save storage space as well as save bandwidths, client-side deduplication have been applied. Recently, various client-side deduplication technology has been proposed. However, this propositions still cannot solve the security problem. In this paper, we suggest a secure source-based deduplication technology, which encrypt data to ensure the confidentiality of sensitive data and apply proofs of ownership protocol to control access to the data, from curious cloud server and malicious user.
