Abstract
Information leakage can lead to loss of intellectual property
and competitive edge. One of the primary sources of
information leakage in collaborative design is sharing confidential
information with collaborators, who may be also
collaborating with competitors. Therefore, there is a need
for protecting confidential information within collaborative
design. Existing approaches such as inference control and
trusted-third-party help in protecting information leakage,
but inhibit designers from taking full advantage of collaboration. In this poster, we explain a new approach based on additive splitting to protect confidential data from untrusted collaborators.
