In recent years, with the rapid development of graph neural networks (GNN), more and more graph datasets have been published for GNN tasks. However, when an upstream data owner publishes graph data, there are often many privacy concerns,…
The web is often treated as a durable record of institutional and social life, yet in practice it is fragile, revisable, and frequently ephemeral. Domains change, redesigns erase earlier material, institutions relocate, maintainers…
Nowadays, denial of service (DoS) attacks represent a significant fraction of all attacks that take place in the Internet and their intensity is always growing. The main DoS attack methods consist of flooding their victims with bogus…
Academic publications of latest research results are crucial to advance the development of all disciplines. However, there are several severe disadvantages in current academic publication systems. The first is the misconduct during the…
Nowadays, more and more people use the Web as their primary source of up-to-date information. In this context, fast crawling and indexing of newly created Web pages has become crucial for search engines, especially because user traffic to a…
The Domain Name System (DNS) is central to all Internet user activity, resolving accessed domain names into Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. As a result, curious DNS resolvers can learn everything about Internet users' interests. Public…
This paper presents the idea and the concepts behind the vision of an Ephemeral Cloud/Edge Continuum, a cloud/edge computing landscape that enables the exploitation of a widely distributed, dynamic, and context-aware set of resources. The…
The Domain Name System (DNS) was created to resolve the IP addresses of the web servers to easily remembered names. When it was initially created, security was not a major concern; nowadays, this lack of inherent security and trust has…
The DNS is a key component of the Internet. Originally designed to facilitate the resolution of host names to IP addresses, its scope has continuously expanded over the years, today covering use cases such as load balancing or service…
High-dimensional crowdsourced data collected from a large number of users produces rich knowledge for our society. However, it also brings unprecedented privacy threats to participants. Local privacy, a variant of differential privacy, is…
Domain Name System (DNS) domains became Internet-level identifiers for entities (like companies, organizations, or individuals) hosting services and sharing resources over the Internet. Domains can specify a set of security policies (such…
The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a hypermedia distribution protocol enabling the creation of completely distributed applications. One of the most efficient and effective ways to distribute information is through notifications, with…
Nowadays, the Internet is indispensable when it comes to information dissemination. People rely on the Internet to inform themselves on current news events, as well as to verify facts. We, as a community, are quickly approaching an…
The DNS (Domain Name System) protocol has been in use since the early days of the Internet. Although DNS as a de facto networking protocol had no security considerations in its early years, there have been many security enhancements, such…
Data privacy is unarguably of extreme importance. Nonetheless, there exist various daunting challenges to safe-guarding data privacy. These challenges stem from the fact that data owners have little control over their data once it has…
We address the problem of securing distributed storage systems against eavesdropping and adversarial attacks. An important aspect of these systems is node failures over time, necessitating, thus, a repair mechanism in order to maintain a…
Although the security benefits of domain name encryption technologies such as DNS over TLS (DoT), DNS over HTTPS (DoH), and Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) are clear, their positive impact on user privacy is weakened by--the still exposed--IP…
In the last decade, there has been a growing realization that the current Internet Protocol is reaching the limits of its senescence. This has prompted several research efforts that aim to design potential next-generation Internet…
The emergence of blockchain technology has fostered the development of numerous decentralized applications (dapps) in recent years Pub/sub (publish/subscribe) systems play a crucial role by associating messages with specific topics and…
Digital fingerprinting is a framework for marking media files, such as images, music, or movies, with user-specific signatures to deter illegal distribution. Multiple users can collude to produce a forgery that can potentially overcome a…
