Secure Multimedia Data Systems in the Era of Artificial Intelligence: Significant Progress and Vision for the Future

Multimedia data systems manage complex data types such as text, images, audio, and video. Extensive research and development efforts in multimedia data management systems have been carried out since the1980s. Furthermore, significant progress has been made on securing such systems. For example, techniques for multilevel security for such systems as well as enforcing access control policies have been developed. More recently, with the advent of big data technologies, data science and Artificial Intelligence, there is a need for managing, analyzing, and securing massive data systems with heterogeneous data types. This paper first describes the progress that has been made on securing multimedia data systems and then describes our vision for securing such systems in the era of Artificial Intelligence.
