Provenance is the documented history of an object, in other words, how the object was created, modified, propagated, and disseminated to its current location/status. By looking into the provenance of an object, we can infer the trustworthiness of the object.
The goal of Secure Provenance is to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and privacy of provenance information.
This is a joint project with Prof. Marianne Winslett of UIUC, and Prof. Radu Sion of Stony Brook University.
