On Secure Cloud Computing for Genomic Data: From Storage to Analysis

Zhicong Huang

Although privacy is generally considered to be the right of an individual or group to control information about themselves, such a right has become challenging to protect in the digital era, this is exemplified by the case of cloud-based genomic computing. ...

Simulating the Large-Scale Erosion of Genomic Privacy Over Time

Mathias Jacques Jean-Marc Humbert, Verena Wolf, Xiaoyu Shen

The dramatically decreasing costs of DNA sequencing have triggered more than a million humans to have their genotypes sequenced. Moreover, these individuals increasingly make their genomic data publicly available, thereby creating privacy threats for thems ...
