PriFi: A Low-Latency and Tracking-Resistant Protocol for Local-Area Anonymous Communication

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Mahdi Zamani, Italo Ivan Dacosta Petrocelli, Ludovic Barman

Popular anonymity mechanisms such as Tor provide low communication latency but are vulnerable to traffic analysis attacks that can de-anonymize users. Moreover, known traffic-analysis-resistant techniques such as Dissent are impractical for use in latency- ...

A Bayesian Approach to Detect Pedestrian Destination-Sequences from WiFi Signatures

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Antonin Danalet

In this paper, we propose a methodology to use the communication network infrastructure, in particular WiFi traces, to detect the sequence of activity episodes visited by pedestrians. Due to the poor quality of WiFi localization, a probabilistic method is ...

Public space in Beijing

Béatrice Ferrari

This is a short exploration of public space in Beijing (and elsewhere). But how do we define public space and does it exist as such in Beijing? In this short presentation, instead of simply focusing on physical spaces, I will try to capture some of the ele ...

Dissent: Accountable Group Anonymity

Bryan Alexander Ford, Henry Nathaniel Corrigan-Gibbs

Users often wish to participate in online groups anonymously, but misbehaving users may abuse this anonymity to disrupt the group. Messaging protocols such as Mix-nets and DC-nets leave online groups vulnerable to denial-of-service and Sybil attacks, while ...

Self-Organized Anonymous Authentication in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Julien Freudiger, Maxime Raya

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 ...

Consensus and collision detectors in radio networks

Seth Gilbert

We consider the fault-tolerant consensus problem in radio networks with crash-prone nodes. Specifically, we develop lower bounds and matching upper bounds for this problem in single-hop radios networks, where all nodes are located within broadcast range of ...

Chain-Based Anonymous Routing for Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Reza Shokri

Wireless ad hoc networks are so vulnerable to passive attacks and eavesdropping adversaries due to their shared medium which makes network traffic easy to capture and analyze. Therefore, security and privacy protections are of extreme importance for protoc ...

What Can Be Implemented Anonymously?

Rachid Guerraoui, Eric Ruppert

Abstract. The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge the ...

Forensic automatic speaker recognition using Bayesian interpretation and statistical compensation for mismatched conditions

Nowadays, state-of-the-art automatic speaker recognition systems show very good performance in discriminating between voices of speakers under controlled recording conditions. However, the conditions in which recordings are made in investigative activities ...

Rachid Guerraoui, Eric Ruppert

The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge them for reas ...

Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
