The increasingly prevailing adoption of cloud computing enables people to feast on the benefits from it, such as on-demand service, pay-per-use manner, high response speed, and worry-free deployment. Nevertheless, the fast propagation as well as popularization of cloud computing also gives rise to serious security and privacy concerns accompanying with the advantages. In this book, we focus on the security and privacy issues with respect to an important exemplification of cloud computing - outsourcing computation, which is a hot issue in both academic research and industrial applications. More specifically, this book provides a systematic overview on outsourcing computation security, from the foundations to the state-of-the-art schemes, from the (normally not so efficient) general constructions to the highly efficient ad-hoc designs. Our main objective is to make this book beneficial to a variety of potential readers, including both academic researchers and industrial professionals. A diverse body of OC constructions are reviewed, the most prominent schemes are discussed, and several promising future directions are envisioned for the follow-up studies.
