Modern data privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and CDPA stipulate that data pertaining to a user must be deleted without undue delay upon the user’s request. Existing systems are not designed to comply with these regulations and can leave traces of deleted data for indeterminate periods of time, often as long as months. We developed Lethe to address these problems by providing fine-grained secure deletion on any system and any storage medium, provided that Lethe has access to a fixed, small amount of securely-deletable storage. Lethe achieves this using keyed hash forests (KHFs), extensions of keyed hash trees (KHTs), structured to serve as efficient representations of encryption key hierarchies. By using a KHF as a regulator for data access, Lethe provides its secure deletion not by removing the KHF, but by adding a new KHF that only grants access to still-valid data. Access to the previous KHF is lost, and the data it regulated securely deleted, through the secure deletion of the single key that protected the previous KHF.more » « less

The literature sometimes uses slow algorithms to find minimum-length continued-fraction differential addition chains to speed up subsequent computations of multiples of points on elliptic curves. This paper introduces two faster algorithms to find these chains. The first algorithm prunes more effectively than previous algorithms. The second algorithm uses a meet-in-the-middle approach and appears to have a limiting cost exponent below 1more » « less

Modern data privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and CDPA stipulate that data pertaining to a user must be deleted without undue delay upon the user’s request. Existing sys- tems are not designed to comply with these regulations and can leave traces of deleted data for indeterminate periods of time, often as long as months. We developed Lethe to address these problems by pro- viding fine-grained secure deletion on any system and any storage medium, provided that Lethe has access to a fixed, small amount of securely-deletable storage. Lethe achieves this using keyed hash forests (KHFs), extensions of keyed hash trees (KHTs), structured to serve as efficient representations of encryption key hierarchies. By using a KHF as a regulator for data access, Lethe provides its secure deletion not by re- moving the KHF, but by adding a new KHF that only grants access to still-valid data. Access to the previous KHF is lost, and the data it regulated securely deleted, through the secure deletion of the single key that protected the previous KHF.more » « less
