How we helped achieving a unique level of protection in data analysis
Our collaboration with Bosch
In 2017 Bosch Research founded the Security and Privacy Enhanced Computing Services (SPECS) division with the goal to provide Bosch customers with new levels of data security and privacy. Bosch’s solution for always encrypted information is based on the distribution of data across various clouds. The distributed data can be processed via cryptographic protocols.
Bosch’s automotive aftermarket division delivers an interesting use case. Adding another layer of security helps Bosch service shop managers to leverage the benefits of cloud computing. With SPECS, workshop operators can protect their cloud-hosted sensitive data, like sales and customer information.
Edgeless Systems collaborated with Bosch on this project to enable the always secure analysis of workshop data. With a prototype of EdgelessDB, we provided a database to protect data while it is being stored and processed. Working on this project helped improving EdgelessDB to make it a freely available open-source product.
