报告摘要：

Modern mobile computing devices (e.g., smart phones, tablets, IoT devices) usually use NAND flash as external storage. Compared to traditional mechanical disk drives, NAND flash has some special characteristics: a write operation can be performed only after an erasure has been performed; reading/programming operations can be performed on the basis of small pages, but erase operations can only be performed on the basis of large blocks; flash memory cells can be programmed/erased for a limited number of times; etc. Protecting sensitive data stored in flash memory while being able to accommodate its special nature is very challenging. Secure data deletion is a critical data security guarantee which ensures that once the sensitive data are deleted, the adversary is not able to completely or partially restore the deleted data.

This talk will introduce our recent research advance on secure data deletion in computing devices using flash memory as the external storage. We have identified various secure deletion compromises caused by the special designs of flash memory systems, and designed various novel techniques which can mitigate those compromises to achieve the secure deletion guarantee.
