Security of Distance-Bounding: A Survey

Serge Vaudenay, Gildas Avoine, Martin Benjamin, Ioana Cristina Carlson, Srdan Capkun, Aslan Tchamkerten

Distance-bounding protocols allow a verifier to both authenticate a prover and evaluate whether the latter is located in his vicinity. These protocols are of particular interest in contactless systems, e.g. electronic payment or access control systems, whi ...

Wireless Communication and Security Issues for Cyber-Physical Systems and the Internet-of-Things

Andreas Peter Burg, Anupam Chattopadhyay

Wireless sensors and actuators connected by the Internet-of-Things (IoT) are central to the design of advanced cyber-physical systems (CPSs). In such complex, heterogeneous systems, communication links must meet stringent requirements on throughput, latenc ...

Can Caesar Beat Galois?

Serge Vaudenay, Damian Vizár

The Competition for Authenticated Encryption: Security, Applicability and Robustness (CAESAR) has as its official goal to “identify a portfolio of authenticated ciphers that offer advantages over [the Galois-Counter Mode with AES]” and are suitable for wid ...

Optimization of Message Encryption for Real-Time Applications in Embedded Systems

Amir Aminifar

Today, security can no longer be treated as a secondary issue in embedded and cyber-physical systems. Therefore, one of the main challenges in these domains is the design of secure embedded systems under stringent resource constraints and real-time require ...

Practical Private Range Search in Depth

Odysseas Papapetrou, Ioannis Demertzis

We consider a data owner that outsources its dataset to an untrusted server. The owner wishes to enable the server to answer range queries on a single attribute, without compromising the privacy of the data and the queries. There are several schemes on “pr ...

Provably Secure Authenticated Encryption

Damian Vizár

Authenticated Encryption (AE) is a symmetric key cryptographic primitive that ensures confidentiality and authenticity of processed messages at the same time. The research of AE as a primitive in its own right started in 2000. The security goals of AE wer ...

Circular Security Reconsidered

Serge Vaudenay, Fatma Betül Durak

The notion of circular security of pseudorandom functions (PRF) was introduced in Distance Bounding Protocols. So far, only a construction based on a random oracle model was proposed. Circular security stands between two new notions which we call Key Depen ...

Building Security Protocols Against Powerful Adversaries

Iris Safaka

As our sensitive data is increasingly carried over the Internet and stored remotely, security in communications becomes a fundamental requirement. Yet, today's security practices are designed around assumptions the validity of which is being challenged. In ...

Imprecise Security: Quality and Complexity Tradeoffs for Hardware Information Flow Tracking

Paolo Ienne, Andrew James Becker, Ryan Charles Kastner, Wei Hu

Secure hardware design is a challenging task that goes far beyond ensuring functional correctness. Important design properties such as non-interference cannot be verified on functional circuit models due to the lack of essential information (e.g., sensitiv ...

Privacy and Security in the Genomic Era

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday

With the help of rapidly developing technology, DNA sequencing is becoming less expensive. As a consequence, the research in genomics has gained speed in paving the way to personalized (genomic) medicine, and geneticists need large collections of human gen ...
