Speech Title: A Differential Privacy-based Secure Data Sharing Model in Cloud Environment

Abstract: With the variety of cloud services, such as the lowest cost, high scalability and efficiency, the cloud service provider also provide machine learning services, which are used in many applications, including risk assessment, product recommendation, and image recognition. Due to multiple benefits, most organizations transfer their data to the cloud platform for storage, analysis, and sharing purposes. As the cloud is run by a third party; therefore, data owners cannot fully rely on this environment. Thus, protecting owners' data while sharing it with other parties has become a major challenge. This paper proposes a Differential Privacy-based Secure Data Sharing (DP-SDS) model in the cloud environment, which protects the owners' data by generating and injecting the noise and performing the classification task by employing differential privacy and machine learning approaches.

Keywords: Cloud Computing, Machine Learning, Differential Privacy, Data Privacy
