Abstract: Techniques for configuring data protection settings for data of an industrial system or an electric power system are provided. The industrial system or the electric power system includes at least one gateway via which the data are transmitted to a computing resource for processing and/or storing. One or several privacy-preserving techniques to be applied to the data are automatically determined. The one or several privacy-preserving techniques being determined based on data privacy requirements for the data and processing operations to be performed on the data by the computing resource. The determined one or several privacy-preserving techniques are automatically applied.

Abstract: Described herein is a system and a method for authenticating distributed votes for a distributed system. The distributed system includes a plurality of nodes and at least one leader node. The method includes: sending out, by the leader node, a prepare message including a proposal; generating, by each of at least some of the plurality of nodes, a set of hash values; generating, by each of the at least some of the plurality of nodes, a reply message to the leader node including the set of hash values; signing, by each of the at least some of the plurality of nodes, the reply message with a digital signature; sending, by each of the at least some of the plurality of nodes, the reply message with the digital signature; and validating, by the leader node, the signatures of the reply messages and saving the sets of hash values.

Abstract: Techniques for configuring data protection settings for data of an industrial system or an electric power system (20) are provided. The industrial system or the electric power system (20) comprises at least one gateway (24) via which the data are transmitted to a computing resource (25) for processing and/or storing. One or several privacy-preserving techniques to be applied to the data are automatically determined. The one or several privacy-preserving techniques being determined based on data privacy requirements for the data and processing operations to be performed on the data by the computing resource (25). The determined one or several privacy-preserving techniques are automatically applied.
