Anonymous Tokens with Stronger Metadata Bit Hiding from Algebraic MACs

On the one hand, the web needs to be secured from malicious activities such as bots or DoS attacks; on the other hand, such needs ideally should not justify services tracking people's activities on the web. Anonymous tokens provide a nice tradeoff between ...

Optimal Symmetric Ratcheting for Secure Communication

Serge Vaudenay, Andrea Felice Caforio, Daniel Patrick Collins, Hailun Yan

To mitigate state exposure threats to long-lived instant messaging sessions, ratcheting was introduced, which is used in practice in protocols like Signal. However, existing ratcheting protocols generally come with a high cost. Recently, Caforio et al. pro ...

On the Insecurity of Vehicles Against Protocol-Level Bluetooth Threats

Mathias Josef Payer, Daniele Antonioli

Cars are some of the most security-critical consumer devices. On the one hand, owners expect rich infotainment features, including audio, hands-free calls, contact management, or navigation through their connected mobile phone. On the other hand, the infot ...

Verifiable Encodings for Secure Homomorphic Analytics

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Sylvain Chatel, Apostolos Pyrgelis, Christian Louis Knabenhans

Homomorphic encryption, which enables the execution of arithmetic operations directly on ciphertexts, is a promising solution for protecting privacy of cloud-delegated computations on sensitive data. However, the correctness of the computation result is no ...

Key Negotiation Downgrade Attacks on Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy

Daniele Antonioli

Bluetooth (BR/EDR) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) are pervasive wireless technologies specified in the Bluetooth standard. The standard includes key negotiation protocols used to generate long-term keys (during pairing) and session keys (during secure conn ...

Towards Unconditional Tor-Like Anonymity

Christina Fragouli, László Czap, Iris Safaka

We design and evaluate a traffic anonymization protocol for wireless networks, aiming to protect against computationally powerful adversaries. Our protocol builds on recent key-generation techniques, that leverage intrinsic properties of the wireless toget ...
