Distributed Authentication in Anonymous Mobile Communities

Hamza Harkous

With the recent boom in smartphones technology, online social networks are going mobile. This trend urged phone manufacturers and social networking companies to seek novel business strategies to monetize from these new "gateways" and to give the users ...

OREN: Optimal Revocations in Ephemeral Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Maxime Raya, Igor Bilogrevic

Public-key certificates allow a multitude of entities to securely exchange and verify the authenticity of data. However, the ability to effectively revoke compromised or untrustworthy certificates is of great importance when coping with misbehavior. In thi ...

Erased Secrets: Practical Information-Theoretic Group Secrecy

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani, Uday Kiran Pulleti

We consider the scenario where a group of wireless nodes want to exchange a secret key, such that no eavesdropper can guess the key. Today, this can be achieved using publickey cryptography, e.g., the Diffie-Hellman or the RSA keyexchange algorithms. Howev ...

Group Secret Key Generation over Broadcast Erasure Channels

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani, Uday Kiran Pulleti

We consider a group of m trusted nodes that aim to create a shared secret key K over a wireless channel in the presence an eavesdropper Eve. We assume an erasure broadcast channel from one of the honest nodes to the rest of them including Eve. All of the t ...

Interference-Resilient Information Exchange

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

This paper presents an efficient protocol for reliably exchanging information in a single-hop, multi-channel radio network subject to unpredictable interference. We model the interference by an adversary that can simultaneously disrupt up to t of the C ava ...

Secure communication using authenticated channels

Sylvain Pasini

Our main motivation is to design more user-friendly security protocols. Indeed, if the use of the protocol is tedious, most users will not behave correctly and, consequently, security issues occur. An example is the actual behavior of a user in front of an ...

Revocation Games in Ephemeral Networks

Igor Bilogrevic

An ephemeral network is usually defined by the very short-lived and heterogeneous nature of interactions among self-organizing wireless devices. The wide penetration in everyday gadgets of radio technologies operating in unlicensed frequency spectrum, such ...

Enabling Secure Secret Sharing in Distributed Online Social Networks

Karl Aberer, Anwitaman Datta, Sonja Buchegger

We study a new application of threshold-based secret sharing in a distributed online social network (DOSN), where users need a means to back up and recover their private keys in a network of untrusted servers. Using a simple threshold-based secret sharing ...

User-Aided Data Authentication

Sylvain Pasini

All classical authentication protocols are based on pre-shared authentic information such as long-term secret keys or a public key infrastructure. However, there are many practical settings, where participants can additionally employ authentic Out-Of-Band ...

SAS-Based Group Authentication and Key Agreement Protocols

Sylvain Pasini

New trends in consumer electronics have created a strong demand for fast, reliable and user-friendly key agreement protocols. However, many key agreement protocols are secure only against passive attacks. Therefore, message authentication is often unavoida ...
