Associated with Financial Crypto & Data Security 2015
<br>
<br>The cloud hype and recent disclosures show there is demand for secure and practical computing technologies. The workshop addresses the challenge to safely outsource data processing onto remote computing resources by protecting programs and data even during processing. This allows users to confidently outsource computation over confidential information independently from the trustworthiness or the security level of the remote delegate. The technologies and techniques discussed in this workshop are key to extend the range of applications that can be securely and practically outsourced.
<br>
<br>The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers, practitioners, government and industry to present, discuss and share the latest progress in the field relevant to realworld problems with practial approaches and solutions.
