MVP-ORAM: a Wait-free Concurrent ORAM for Confidential BFT Storage

Robin Vassantlal, Hasan Heydari, Bernardo Ferreira +1

It is well known that encryption alone is not enough to protect data privacy. Access patterns, revealed when operations are performed, can also be leveraged in inference attacks. O…
