The Privacy-preserving Padding Problem: Non-negative Mechanisms for Conservative Answers with Differential Privacy
Benjamin M. Case, James Honaker, Mahnush Movahedi
Differentially private noise mechanisms commonly use symmetric noise distributions. This is attractive both for achieving the differential privacy definition, and for unbiased expe…
Privacy-Preserving Randomized Controlled Trials: A Protocol for Industry Scale Deployment
Mahnush Movahedi, Benjamin M. Case, Andrew Knox +6
In this paper, we outline a way to deploy a privacy-preserving protocol for multiparty Randomized Controlled Trials on the scale of 500 million rows of data and more than a billion…
DFINITY Technology Overview Series, Consensus System
Timo Hanke, Mahnush Movahedi, Dominic Williams
The DFINITY blockchain computer provides a secure, performant and flexible consensus mechanism. At its core, DFINITY contains a decentralized randomness beacon which acts as a veri…
Interactive Communication with Unknown Noise Rate
Varsha Dani, Thomas P. Hayes, Mahnush Movahedi +2
Alice and Bob want to run a protocol over a noisy channel, where a certain number of bits are flipped adversarially. Several results take a protocol requiring bits of noise-fre…
On Optimal Decision-Making in Ant Colonies
Mahnush Movahedi, Mahdi Zamani
Colonies of ants can collectively choose the best of several nests, even when many of the active ants who organize the move visit only one site. Understanding such a behavior can h…
Secure Anonymous Broadcast
Mahnush Movahedi, Jared Saia, Mahdi Zamani
In anonymous broadcast, one or more parties want to anonymously send messages to all parties. This problem is increasingly important as a black-box in many privacy-preserving appli…
A DDoS-Aware IDS Model Based on Danger Theory and Mobile Agents
Mahdi Zamani, Mahnush Movahedi, Mohammad Ebadzadeh +1
We propose an artificial immune model for intrusion detection in distributed systems based on a relatively recent theory in immunology called Danger theory. Based on Danger theory,…
Quorums Quicken Queries: Efficient Asynchronous Secure Multiparty Computation
Varsha Dani, Valerie King, Mahnush Movahedi +1
We describe an asynchronous algorithm to solve secure multiparty computation (MPC) over n players, when strictly less than a 1/8 fraction of the players are controlled by a static…
Scalable Mechanisms for Rational Secret Sharing
Varsha Dani, Mahnush Movahedi, Jared Saia
We consider the classical secret sharing problem in the case where all agents are selfish but rational. In recent work, Kol and Naor show that, when there are two players, in the n…
Secure Multi-Party Computation in Large Networks
Varsha Dani, Valerie King, Mahnush Movahedi +2
We describe scalable protocols for solving the secure multi-party computation (MPC) problem among a large number of parties. We consider both the synchronous and the asynchronous c…
