Evaluating the Privacy Risk of Location-Based Services

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Julien Freudiger, Reza Shokri

In modern mobile networks, users increasingly share their location with third-parties in return for location-based services. In this way, users obtain services customized to their location. Yet, such communications leak location information about users. Ev ...

Model Checking Security Protocols: A Multiagent System Approach

Security protocols specify the communication required to achieve security objectives, e.g., data-privacy. Such protocols are used in electronic media: e-commerce, e-banking, e-voting, etc. Formal verification is used to discover protocol-design flaws. In t ...

iProve: A Scalable Approach to Consumer-Verifiable Software Guarantees

George Candea, Horatiu Jula, Silviu Andrica

Formally proving complex program properties is still considered impractical for systems with over a million lines of code (MLOC). We present iProve, an approach that enables the generation and verification of proofs for interesting program properties in la ...

A Distortion-based Metric for Location Privacy

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Murtuza Jadliwala, Julien Freudiger, Reza Shokri

We propose a novel framework for measuring and evaluating location privacy preserving mechanisms in mobile wireless networks. Within this framework, we first present a formal model of the system, which provides an efficient representation of the network us ...
