The problem of characterizing the fundamental tradeoff between storage and repair bandwidth of exact-repair regenerating codes against a passive eavesdropper is studied. The eavesdropper is assumed to be capable of observing the data stored in a fixed number of nodes and the data involved in the repair of these nodes. In this paper, the tradeoff for regenerating codes with small parameters is characterized, and then, the results are extended to some general settings.
