Why your encrypted Database isn't secure: practical attacks against encrypted OSS databases

Описание: (Dan Draper) There is a growing trend of encrypting data stored in relational databases such as PostgreSQL and MariaDB. The goal is to improve the security of the data we store. But how effective is encryption at meeting that goal? Hint: not as effective as you might think! So what are the limitations of an encrypted database and what should you be aware of to mitigate potential attacks? (And while maintaining performance, scalability and usability!) In this talk, Dan Draper summarises several recent papers from Cornell, Stanford and the University of Illinois on practical attacks against encrypted databases. He also provides some guidance and examples of how to mitigate these risks, how they can be factored into a threat-model and provides a look some alternative approaches that go some way towards addressing the problems.
