Query: SGX-MR: Regulating Dataflows for Protecting Access Patterns of
  Data-Intensive SGX Applications   Intel SGX has been a popular trusted execution environment (TEE) for
protecting the integrity and confidentiality of applications running on
untrusted platforms such as cloud. However, the access patterns of SGX-based
programs can still be observed by adversaries, which may leak important
information for successful attacks. Researchers have been experimenting with
Oblivious RAM (ORAM) to address the privacy of access patterns. ORAM is a
powerful low-level primitive that provides application-agnostic protection for
any I/O operations, however, at a high cost. We find that some
application-specific access patterns, such as sequential block I/O, do not
provide additional information to adversaries. Others, such as sorting, can be
replaced with specific oblivious algorithms that are more efficient than ORAM.
The challenge is that developers may need to look into all the details of
application-specific access patterns to design suitable solutions, which is
time-consuming and error-prone. In this paper, we present the lightweight SGX
based MapReduce (SGX-MR) approach that regulates the dataflow of data-intensive
SGX applications for easier application-level access-pattern analysis and
protection. It uses the MapReduce framework to cover a large class of
data-intensive applications, and the entire framework can be implemented with a
small memory footprint. With this framework, we have examined the stages of
data processing, identified the access patterns that need protection, and
designed corresponding efficient protection methods. Our experiments show that
SGX-MR based applications are much more efficient than ORAM-based
implementations.
