Creating Secrets out of Erasures

Aikaterini Argyraki, Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Panagiotis Kostopoulos

Current security systems often rely on the adversary's computational limitations. Wireless networks offer the opportunity for a different, complementary kind of security, which relies on the adversary's limited network presence (i.e., that the adversary ca ...

Practical & Provably Secure Distance-Bounding

Serge Vaudenay, Aikaterini Mitrokotsa

From contactless payments to remote car unlocking, many applications are vulnerable to relay attacks. Distance bounding protocols are the main practical countermeasure against these attacks. At FSE 2013, we presented SKI as the first family of provably sec ...

A Distributed Polling with Probabilistic Privacy

Rachid Guerraoui, Florian Huc, Yahya Benkaouz

In this paper, we present PDP, a distributed polling protocol that enables a set of participants to gather their opinion on a common interest without revealing their point of view. PDP does not rely on any centralized authority or on heavyweight cryptograp ...

Creating Shared Secrets out of Thin Air

Aikaterini Argyraki, Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Iris Safaka

Current security systems typically rely on the adversary's computational limitations (e.g., the fact that it cannot invert a hash function or perform large-integer factorization). Wireless networks offer the opportunity for a different, complementary kind ...

Multi-terminal Secrecy in a Linear Non-coherent Packetized Networks

Christina Fragouli, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

We consider a group of m+1 trusted nodes that aim to create a shared secret key K over a network in the presence of a passive eavesdropper, Eve. We assume a linear non-coherent network coding broadcast channel (over a ﬁnite ﬁeld F_q ) from one of the hones ...

Network Coding : Theoretical Designs Directed to Applications

Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

The demand for higher throughput and better efficiency are two important challenges for future communication networks. During the past decades, a lot of research studies have been devoted to investigating and proposing near optimal and efficient schemes an ...

Group secret key agreement over state-dependent wireless broadcast channels

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

We consider a group of m trusted nodes that aim to create a shared secret key K, using a state-dependent wireless broadcast channel that exists from one of the honest nodes to the rest of the nodes including a passive eavesdropper Eve. All of the trusted n ...

A Mobile World of Security

Christine Neuberg

Security in mobile communications is a topic of increasing relevance in everyday life. We all use mobile devices for everyday communications, maybe even for exchanging confidential information with the work place. This requires security systems that are re ...

A mobile world of security

Rüdiger Urbanke, Christina Fragouli, Christine Neuberg, Panagiotis Papadimitratos

We propose a novel approach to establish crypto- graphic keys among mobile users and a networking infrastruc- ture. Our approach comes at a low cost and can either be used as an alternative to existing solutions or can be employed in a complementary way. O ...
