Abstract:
Cloud and Web-centric computing is a significant trend in computing. However, the design and development of modern Web browsers failed to catch up this significant trend to address many challenging Browsing Data Insecurity and Inconvenience (referred to as BDII) problems that bother millions of Web users. In this position paper, we present our preliminary investigation on the BDII problems of the five most popular Web browsers and highlight the necessity and importance of addressing those problems. We also propose to explore a novel Cloud computing Age Browser (referred to as CAB) architecture that leverages the reliability and accessibility advantages of cloud storage services to fundamentally address the BDII problems.
