SARDS: Secure and reliable distributed storage systems

DURATION: 01.01.2015–31.12.2018

Short summary:

The term "distributed storage" denotes scalable and economically viable technology for storing humanity's collective memory. It is unknown how to best design such distributed storage systems that are both robust against arbitrary failures, and secure against targeted attacks. The project addresses these issues through a theoretical approach guided by practical concerns.
