According to most technology pundits, progress in wireless and sensor networks will lead us into a world of ubiquitous computing, in which myriads of tiny, untethered sensors and actuators will communicate with each other. Information technology will thus ...
Tamper-proof devices are pretty powerful. They typically make security applications simpler (provided that the tamper-proof assumption is not violated). For application requiring privacy, we observe that some properties may become harder (if possible at al ...
Pervasive communications bring along new privacy challenges, fueled by the capability of mobile devices to communicate with, and thus "sniff on", each other directly. We design a new mechanism that aims at achieving location privacy in these forthcoming mo ...
Vehicular communication (VC) systems are developed primarily to enhance transportation safety and efficiency. Vehicle-to-vehicle communication, in particular frequent cooperative awareness messages or safety beacons, have been considered over the past year ...
Since the beginning of this brand new century, and especially since the 2001 Sept 11 events in the U.S, several biometric technologies are considered mature enough to be a new tool for security. Generally associated to a personal device for privacy protect ...
Location-Sharing-Based Services (LSBS) complement Location-Based Services by using locations from a group of users, and not just individuals, to provide some contextualized service based on the locations in the group. However, there are growing concerns ab ...
We analyze the security of a fingerprinting scheme proposed at IWDW 2005. We show two results, namely that this scheme (1) does riot provide seller security: a dishonest buyer can repudiate the fact that, he redistributed a content, and (2) does riot, prov ...

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 ...

Manageability directly influences a system's reliability, availability, security, and safety, thus being a key ingredient of system dependability. Alas, we do not have today a good way to measure manageability or reason quantitatively about it, and this is ...
