Effectiveness of Distance-Decreasing Attacks Against Impulse Radio Ranging

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Manuel Flury

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 ...

Data-centric trust in ephemeral networks

Maxime Raya

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 ...

Security observance throughout the life-cycle of embedded systems

Arjen Lenstra

Embedded systems are an established part of life. Their security requirements underline the importance of properly formulated, implemented, and enforced security policies throughout their life-cycle. Currently, security is just an afterthought, and most so ...

Security in distributed metadata catalogues

Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos

Catalogue services provide the discovery and location mechanisms that allow users and applications to locate data on Grids. Replication is a highly desirable feature in these services, since it provides the scalability and reliability required on large dat ...

Efficient and Robust Pseudonymous Authentication in VANET

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos

Effective and robust operations, as well as security and privacy are critical for the deployment of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Efficient and easy- to-manage security and privacy-enhancing mechanisms are essential for the wide-spread adoption of th ...

Security Aspects of Inter-Vehicle Communications

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Maxime Raya

Inter-Vehicular Communications (IVC) are a cornerstone of the future intelligent transportation systems. A crucial enabling component of IVC is its security and privacy. Indeed, as vehicular computing systems become interconnected, there will be new venues ...

The Security of Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Maxime Raya

Vehicular networks are likely to become the most relevant form of mobile ad hoc networks. In this paper, we address the security of these networks. We provide a detailed threat analysis and devise an appropriate security architecture. We also describe some ...

Location verification and key management in wireless networks

Srdan Capkun

This thesis is primarily concerned with two security mechanisms for wireless networks: location verification and key management. These mechanisms are potential building blocks in the security architectures of a range of applications. Under location verific ...

Last Encounter Routing under Random Waypoint Mobility

Matthias Grossglauser, Natasa Sarafijanovic-Djukic

Last Encounter Routing (LER) algorithms for mobile ad hoc networks rely only on encounter histories at every node to route packets, and therefore do not need control traffic to track topology changes due to node mobility. LER exploits the fact that past in ...

Secure Routing for Mobile Ad hoc Networks

Panagiotis Papadimitratos

The emergence of the Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) technology advocates self-organized wireless interconnection of communication devices that would either extend or operate in concert with the wired networking infrastructure or, possibly, evolve to auto ...
