TALK: Opaque: An Oblivious and Encrypted Distributed Analytics Platform
Abstract
Many systems run rich data analytics on sensitive data in the cloud, but are prone to data breaches. A recent hardware enclave architecture promises data confidentiality and isolated execution of arbitrary computations, yet still suffers from leakage due to memory and network accesses patterns. In this talk, I will describe Opaque, a distributed data analytics platform supporting a wide range of queries while protecting the data. Even a compromised operating system sees only encrypted data. Opaque also protects against leakage from memory and network accesses outside of the enclave (a property called obliviousness). To accomplish this goal, Opaque introduces new distributed oblivious relational operators, as well as new query planning techniques to optimize these new operators. Opaque is implemented on Spark SQL with few changes to the underlying system. Opaque provides data encryption, authentication, and computation verification with a performance ranging from 52% faster to 3.3x slower than vanilla Spark SQL; obliviousness comes with a 1.646x overhead. At the same time, Opaque provides an improvement of three orders of magnitude over state-of-the-art oblivious protocols.
Joint work with W. Zheng, A. Dave, J. G. Beekman, J. E. Gonzalez, and I. Stoica.
