Secure Position-Based Routing for VANETs

Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Charles Harsch

Vehicular communication (VC) systems have the potential to improve road safety and driving comfort. Nevertheless, securing the operation is a prerequisite for deployment. So far, the security of VC applications has mostly drawn the attention of research ef ...

Hash-and-Sign with Weak Hashing Made Secure

Serge Vaudenay, Sylvain Pasini

Digital signatures are often proven to be secure in the random oracle model while hash functions deviate more and more from this idealization. Liskov proposed to model a weak hash function by a random oracle together with another oracle allowing to break s ...

Dial C for Cipher

Thomas Baignères

We introduce C, a practical provably secure block cipher with a slow key schedule. C is based on the same structure as AES but uses independent random substitution boxes instead of a fixed one. Its key schedule is based on the Blum-Blum-Shub pseudo-random ...

Efficient and Adjustable Recipient Anonymity in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Reza Shokri, Amir Nayyeri

The privacy of users of mobile devices has been at stake, with emerging systems based on the mobile ad hoc networking technology raising additional concerns. The establishment of a connection between two nodes could readily reveal information to an eavesdr ...

Secure Data Communication in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Panagiotis Papadimitratos

We address the problem of secure and fault-tolerant communication in the presence of adversaries across a multihop wireless network with frequently changing topology. To effectively cope with arbitrary malicious disruption of data transmissions, we propose ...

Mobility Helps Peer-to-Peer Security

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan, Srdan Capkun

We propose a straightforward technique to provide peer-to-peer security in mobile networks. We show that far from being a hurdle, mobility can be exploited to set up security associations among users. We leverage on the temporary vicinity of users, during ...

SAS-based Authenticated Key Agreement

Serge Vaudenay, Sylvain Pasini

Key agreement protocols are frequently based on the Diffie-Hellman protocol but require authenticating the protocol messages in two ways. This can be made by a cross-authentication protocol. Such protocols, based on the assumption that a channel which can ...

Cryptosystems and LLL

Thomas Baignères

Since the late 70’s, several public key cryptographic algorithms have been proposed. Diﬃe and Hellman ﬁrst came with this concept in 1976. Since that time, several other public key cryptosystems were invented, such as the well known RSA, ElGamal or Rabin c ...

Secure Communications over Insecure Channels Using an Authenticated Channel

Sylvain Pasini

A secure communication over an insecure channel without any prior exchanged key can be established with the help of an authentication step to exchange a public key and then using public-key cryptography such as RSA. In this work, we concentrate on message ...

A Family of Fast Syndrome Based Cryptographic Hash Functions

Recently, some collisions have been exposed for a variety of cryptographic hash functions including some of the most widely used today. Many other hash functions using similar constructions can however still be considered secure. Nevertheless, this has dra ...
