In this dissertation, we study the security of cryptographic protocols and cryptosystems from the mathematical definition of the primitives, up to their physical implementations in the real world. We propose a representation of the chronological design usi ...
We provide a concrete security treatment of several "provably secure" hash functions. Interpreting arguments behind MQ-HASH, FSB, SWIFFTX and VSH we identify similar lines of reasoning. We aim to formulate the main security claims in a language closer to t ...

In this work we study the problem of key agreement over a public noiseless channel when Alice, Bob and Charlie observe discrete memoryless sources of an unknown distribution. Alice and Bob want to agree on a key K-AB that is protected from Charlie. At the ...

New network types require new security concepts. Surprisingly, trust – the ultimate goal of security – has not evolved as much as other concepts. In particular, the traditional notion of building trust in entities seems inadequate in an ephemeral environme ...
We expose the vulnerability of an emerging wireless ranging technology, impulse radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB), to distance-decreasing attacks on the physical communication layer (PHY). These attacks violate the security of secure ranging protocols that al ...
Security is an important aspect for the future wire- less networks. Since the number of network nodes increases con- stantly, and, in addition, the networks are decentralized and ad- hoc in nature, it becomes more challenging to apply the current cryptogra ...
A secure roaming protocol for mobile networks is proposed. Roaming has been analysed in some schemes from the security point of view; however, there are vulnerabilities in most of them and so the claimed security level is not achieved. The scheme offered b ...
The characteristics of vehicular communication environments and their networking and application requirements have led to the development of unique networking protocols. They enable vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication based on th ...
Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband, in particular the recent standard IEEE 802.15.4a, is a primarycandidate for implementing distance bounding protocols, thanks to its ability to perform accurate indoor ranging. Distance bounding protocols allow two wireless dev ...
This paper is devoted to the design and analysis of short undeniable signatures based on a random oracle. Exploiting their online property, we can achieve signatures with a fully scalable size depending on the security level. To this end, we develop a gene ...
