Data Privacy for Virtual Environments (DPRIVE)
Abstract
The Data Privacy in Virtual Environments (DPRIVE) program will enable data privacy at the user and application level, through the development of new hardware accelerators, to achieve acceptable computational times. The program plans to provide strong privacy protections at the tactical edge with no more than one order of magnitude penalty in computation time and enable very strong privacy at the enterprise level with no more than three orders of magnitude penalty over unencrypted processing. The DoD is increasingly reliant on cloud computing services and storage. Cloud-enabled virtualized storage and the accompanying virtualized computing play a key role in data processing for planning and operations. Networks are also becoming more virtualized spaces, such as in 5G systems. The growing virtualization storage, computing, and networking puts data privacy of all users at risk. DPRIVE will build hardware to accelerate the computation of homomorphic encryption, which enables mathematical operations to execute on encrypted data such that the data is never unencrypted. The program will enable the development and deployment of these hardware accelerators to edge computing devices where power and time are a premium as well as enterprise computing facilities where the amount and sensitivity of the data requires increased protection.
