2013Protecting Location Privacy: Optimal Strategy against Localization Attacks
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Carmela González Troncoso, Reza Shokri, Georgios Theodorakopoulos
The mainstream approach to protecting the location-privacy of mobile users in location-based services (LBSs) is to alter the users' actual locations in order to reduce the location information exposed to the service provider. The location obfuscation algor ...
2012Traps and Pitfalls of Using Contact Traces in Performance Studies of Opportunistic Networks
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Nikodin Ristanovic, Georgios Theodorakopoulos
Contact-based simulations are a very popular tool for the analysis of opportunistic networks. They are used for evaluation of networking metrics, for quantifying the effects of infrastructure and for the design of forwarding strategies. However, little evi ...
Ieee2012Quantifying Location Privacy: The Case of Sporadic Location Exposure
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Reza Shokri, Georgios Theodorakopoulos
Mobile users expose their location to potentially untrusted entities by using location-based services. Based on the frequency of location exposure in these applications, we divide them into two main types: Continuous and Sporadic. These two location exposu ...
