Advancements in Secure Logging and Migration

The field of secure logging and migration is moving towards developing high-performance, tamper-evident auditing systems that can detect log tampering with fine-grained accuracy. Researchers are also focusing on creating lightweight frameworks for verifiable state management and trustworthy application migration, which can be applied to various trusted execution environments. Additionally, there is a growing interest in optimizing stateful microservice migration in cloud-native environments and reconstructing user activity timelines from memory snapshots. Notable papers include:

  • A high-performance, co-designed auditing system that achieves superior performance and near-zero data loss.
  • A lightweight framework for verifiable state management and trustworthy application migration that integrates memory introspection and control-flow graph extraction.
  • A tool that reconstructs user activity timelines by analyzing raw memory snapshots from database processes, providing a forensically-sound reconstruction of user activity.
