Resumé: In distributed computing scenarios such as web applications, social networks, and cloud computing, data that is originally provided by users are handled by a number of potentially untrusted parties such as application servers, communication service providers, cloud service providers, etc. Most of these scenarios are motivated by significant advantages in terms of cost reduction, performance increase, and a variety of new service offers at a low cost or for free. Yet these advantages come at the expense of serious violations for users’ privacy and security that are akin to current distributed computing scenarios. Classical security mechanisms such as data encryption unfortunately fall short of countering these privacy and security violations in the original setting whereby the performance advantages and the resulting extensive service offerings can still be kept. The goal of this thesis is to come up with solutions for user security and privacy that would not impact the advantages of current distributed computing applications in terms of increased performance, reduced cost, and extensive service offering at low cost or for free.
