"Your Data's Vulnerable. U of G Computer Scientists Have a Solution"
Researchers at the University of Guelph have presented an innovative framework that could be used to protect data in the interconnected world. It is a new approach to developing apps and services. A recently published study describes the two-level solution that improves the framework currently used in smart devices. One level works locally on the device, protecting sensitive data as it travels to the central server. The second level ensures that any data is encrypted even as it is being processed. According to the researchers, this framework could be built into Ring doorbells, Alexa speakers, healthcare applications, autonomous vehicles, and more in a few years. The new framework, which can protect data from any third party, has the potential to be a powerful tool in the battle against hackers who use ever-changing technology for information theft. This article continues to discuss the two-level privacy-preserving framework.
