• Authors: Xiaoyuan Liu, Ni Trieu, Evgenios M. Kornaropoulos, Dawn Song
• Abstract summary: Contact tracing is an important method to control the spread of an infectious disease such as COVID-19. Current solutions do not utilize the huge volume of data stored in business databases and individual digital devices. We propose BeeTrace, a unified platform that breaks data silos and deploys state-of-the-art cryptographic protocols to guarantee privacy goals.

• Abstract: Contact tracing is an important method to control the spread of an infectious disease such as COVID-19. However, existing contact tracing methods alone cannot provide sufficient coverage and do not successfully address privacy concerns of the participating entities. Current solutions do not utilize the huge volume of data stored in business databases and individual digital devices. This information is typically stored in data silos and cannot be used due to regulations in place. To successfully unlock the potential of contact tracing, we need to consider both data utilization from multiple sources and the privacy of the participating parties. To this end, we propose BeeTrace, a unified platform that breaks data silos and deploys state-of-the-art cryptographic protocols to guarantee privacy goals.

  Data contamination has become prevalent and challenging with the rise of models pretrained on large automatically-crawled corpora. For closed models, the training data becomes a trade secret, and even for open models, it is not trivial to detect contamination. We propose three strategies that can make a difference: (1) Test data made public should be encrypted with a public key and licensed to disallow derivative distribution; (2) demand training exclusion controls from closed API holders, and protect your test data by refusing to evaluate without them; and (3) avoid data which appears with its solution on the internet, and release the web-page context of internet-derived

  There is interest in using the power of mobile phones to automate the contact-tracing process. The rough idea is simple: use Bluetooth or other data-exchange technologies to record contacts between users, enable users to report positive diagnoses, and alert users who have been exposed to sick users. Although designing practical protocols is of crucial importance, it is essential to realize that notifying users about exposure events may itself leak confidential information.
