Abstract
The proliferation of smart devices in close proximity to end users has massively increased availability of data about our surroundings and hence stimulated a plethora of new services. However, it has also increased the chances of leaking sensitive and private information about end users (e.g., geolocation data, biometric signatures). Loss of trust towards a Cloud provider can lead to a user boycott and requests for deletion of the their remotely stored personal information. While many Cloud services can handle this relatively easily, it is far more cumbersome for many smart services. In fact, the current market of smart services is composed of black-box systems dependent on tight coupling between deployed hardware and the Cloud hosted software stack leaving virtually no freedom to change service provider without considerable redeployment costs.
