Compact and Efficient UC Commitments under Atomic-Exchanges

Serge Vaudenay

We devise a multiple (concurrent) commitment scheme operating on large messages. It uses an ideal global setup functionality in a minimalistic way. The commitment phase is non-interactive. It is presented in a modular way so that the internal building bloc ...

Automated Side-Channel Vulnerability Discovery and Hardening

Ali Galip Bayrak

In traditional cryptography, an attacker tries to infer a mathematical relationship between the inputs and outputs of a cryptosystem to recover secret information. With the advances in the theoretical basis of the cryptographic algorithms, this task became ...

Unifying Leakage Models: From Probing Attacks to Noisy Leakage

Alexandre Raphaël Duc, Sebastian Faust

A recent trend in cryptography is to formally show the leakage resilience of cryptographic implementations in a given leakage model. One of the most prominent leakage models -- the so-called bounded leakage model -- assumes that the amount of leakage is a- ...

Secure Wireless Communications via Cooperative Transmitting

Ninoslav Marina

Information-theoretic secrecy is combined with cryptographic secrecy to create a secret-key exchange protocol for wireless networks. A network of transmitters, which already have cryptographically secured channels between them, cooperate to exchange a secr ...

Security Analysis of Accountable Anonymity in Dissent

Bryan Alexander Ford, Henry Nathaniel Corrigan-Gibbs

Users often wish to communicate anonymously on the Internet, for example in group discussion or instant messaging forums. Existing solutions are vulnerable to misbehaving users, however, who may abuse their anonymity to disrupt communication. Dining Crypto ...

RFID seeking: Finding a lost tag rather than only detecting its missing

Chen Zhang, Qiang Wang, Jian Xu, Lei Xie

This paper proposes a novel type of RFID application, i.e., RFID seeking. Several existing types of RFID applications such as monitoring, searching, locating/navigating, are similar with RFID seeking. However, they are either inapplicable or vulnerable for ...

TOA: a tag-owner-assisting RFID authentication protocol toward access control and ownership transfer

Chen Zhang, Chao Wang, Qiang Wang, Lei Xie

This paper addresses radio frequency identification (RFID) authentication and ownership transfer in offline scenarios. Four typical related works are reviewed in detail. A series of shortcomings and vulnerabilities of them are pointed out. A new RFID authe ...

Towards Secure Distance Bounding

Serge Vaudenay, Aikaterini Mitrokotsa

Relay attacks (and, more generally, man-in-the-middle attacks) are a serious threat against many access control and payment schemes. In this work, we present distance-bounding protocols, how these can deter relay attacks, and the security models formalizin ...

Low cost security for sensor networks

Christina Fragouli, Lorenzo Keller, Iris Safaka, Emre Atsan

We design and evaluate a lightweight encryption protocol suitable for sensor networks, that enables weak security in the presence of passive eavesdroppers. At every communication round, our protocol creates a key between each sensor node and the sink, by a ...

Input-Aware Equivocable Commitments and UC-secure Commitments With Atomic Exchanges

Serge Vaudenay

We define a new primitive, input-aware equivocable commitment, baring similar hardness assumptions as plaintext-aware encryption and featuring equivocability. We construct an actual input-aware equivocable commitment protocol, based on a flavor of Diffie-H ...
