Defending Side-Channel Attacks in Client-Side Deduplication with Hardware/software Codesign
DescriptionClient-side deduplication can reduce redundant data transfer, but its duplicate check may expose the file existence status to attackers. Existing software-only defenses provide limited protection and impose substantial computation. Accordingly, we present RSCD, a Raptor-code and SGX Co-Designed framework that mitigate side-channel leakage in client-side deduplication. RSCD employs sparse XOR-based Raptor coding to obfuscate deduplication patterns with low overhead and uses an SGX enclave protected dirty-chunk detector to identify probing through feature analysis. Our formal analysis shows near-optimal privacy, and the experimental results demonstrate that RSCD consistently achieves lower latency, higher throughput and accuracy in attack detection than SOTA defenses.
