Abstract:

The advancement of technologies has caused many organizations to re-strategize and adopt
digital transformation. Along with it, transactions and interactions between organizations have
been digitized. However, digitalization is creating the dependency of society on increasingly
complex, interconnected systems and networks, which increases our exposure to various threats
such as loss of data, loss of control over the software systems and networks, mistrust due to illintended
contents and actions, misuse of technology and so on. To bootstrap trust and support
secure data sharing, cross-institution transactions and business in the digital world, various
technologies are needed to empower cross-institutional collaboration with increasing trust through
secure communication, transfer and exchange of digital documents and assets, verifiability, and
auditability. Trusted database technology is foundational to supporting digital trust. It is required to
not only ensure privacy, integrity of data, but also of the computation on the data. The design
space for trusted database systems is vast, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. I shall discuss
design and implementation issues and requirements of a flexible trusted database system and our
works in this area.
