At the same time, mobile apps have access to various private information, ranging from users' contact lists to their precise locations. As a result, app deployment models and data flows have become too complex and entangled for users to understand. We present CloudAnalyzer, a transparency technology that reveals the cloud usage of smartphone apps and hence provides users with the means to reclaim informational self-determination. We apply CloudAnalyzer to study the cloud exposure of 29 volunteers over the course of 19 days. In addition, we analyze the cloud usage of the 5000 most accessed mobile websites as well as 500 popular apps from five different countries. Our results reveal an excessive exposure to cloud services: 90 \% of apps use cloud services and 36 \% of apps used by volunteers solely communicate with cloud services. Given the information provided by CloudAnalyzer, users can critically review the cloud usage of their apps.}, keywords = {Privacy; Smartphones; Cloud Computing; Traffic Analysis}, tags = {trinics}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2017/2017-henze-mobiquitous-cloudanalyzer.pdf}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {ACM}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 14th EAI International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous '17), November 7-10, 2017, Melbourne, VIC, Australia}, event_place = {Melbourne, VIC, Australia}, event_date = {November 7-10, 2017}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-4503-5368-7}, DOI = {10.1145/3144457.3144471}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Henze, Martin and Pennekamp, Jan and Hellmanns, David and M{\"u}hmer, Erik and Ziegeldorf, Jan Henrik and Drichel, Arthur and Wehrle, Klaus} } @Inproceedings { 2017-henze-ic2e-prada, title = {Practical Data Compliance for Cloud Storage}, year = {2017}, month = {4}, day = {4}, pages = {252-258}, tags = {ssiclops, ipacs}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2017/2017-henze-ic2e-prada.pdf}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {IEEE}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2017 IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering (IC2E 2017), Vancouver, BC, Canada}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-5090-5817-4}, DOI = {10.1109/IC2E.2017.32}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Henze, Martin and Matzutt, Roman and Hiller, Jens and M{\"u}hmer, Erik and Ziegeldorf, Jan Henrik and van der Giet, Johannes and Wehrle, Klaus} }
