Auditable Versioned Data Storage Outsourcing (1507.08838v1)

Published 31 Jul 2015 in cs.CR and cs.DS

Abstract: Auditability is crucial for data outsourcing, facilitating accountability and identifying data loss or corruption incidents in a timely manner, reducing in turn the risks from such losses. In recent years, in synch with the growing trend of outsourcing, a lot of progress has been made in designing probabilistic (for efficiency) provable data possession (PDP) schemes. However, even the recent and advanced PDP solutions that do deal with dynamic data, do so in a limited manner, and for only the latest version of the data. A naive solution treating different versions in isolation would work, but leads to tremendous overheads, and is undesirable. In this paper, we present algorithms to achieve full persistence (all intermediate configurations are preserved and are modifiable) for an optimized skip list (known as FlexList) so that versioned data can be audited. The proposed scheme provides deduplication at the level of logical, variable sized blocks, such that only the altered parts of the different versions are kept, while the persistent data-structure facilitates access (read) of any arbitrary version with the same storage and process efficiency that state-of-the-art dynamic PDP solutions provide for only the current version, while commit (write) operations incur around 5% additional time. Furthermore, the time overhead for auditing arbitrary versions in addition to the latest version is imperceptible even on a low-end server...
