Protecting the privacy of this cached content, while maintaining the performance benefits obtained due to caching, is a major concern. Although this problem has been addressed, most existing solutions dramatically compromise the performance gain that NDN provides in order to ensure data privacy. In this paper, we formulate a new approach to enhance the privacy of cached content at each NDN router, while ensuring minimal performance loss. This is achieved by segregating NDN routers into groups, and maintaining a Distributed Content Store across each group. The proposed approach has been named Group Caching for Privacy in NDN (GCPiN). We provide a preliminary mathematical analysis which shows that GCPiN is a promising approach with scope for further evaluation. � 2017 IEEE.Book chapter
