In this paper, we study a security problem of protecting secrets in distributed systems. Specifically, we employ discrete-event systems to describe the structure and behaviour of distributed systems, in which global secret information is…
In Internet of Things (IoT) systems with security demands, there is often a need to distribute sensitive information (such as encryption keys, digital signatures, or login credentials, etc.) among the devices, so that it can be retrieved…
With the tremendous increase in the number of smart phones, app stores have been overwhelmed with applications requiring geo-location access in order to provide their users better services through personalization. Revealing a user's…
Providing meaningful privacy to users of location based services is particularly challenging when multiple locations are revealed in a short period of time. This is primarily due to the tremendous degree of dependence that can be…
Security and memory management are the major demands for electronics devices like ipods, cell phones, pmps, iphones and digital cameras. In this paper, we have suggested a high level of security mechanism by considering the concept of…
Given that security threats and privacy breaches are com- monplace today, it is an important problem for one to know whether their device(s) are in a "good state of security", or is there a set of high- risk vulnerabilities that need to be…
Consumer electronic devices such as mobile handsets, goods tagged with RFID labels, location and position sensors are continuously generating a vast amount of location enriched data called geospatial data. Conventionally such geospatial…
Data splitting preserves privacy by partitioning data into various fragments to be stored remotely and shared. It supports most data operations because data can be stored in clear as opposed to methods that rely on cryptography. However,…
We present a practical method for protecting data during the inference phase of deep learning based on bipartite topology threat modeling and an interactive adversarial deep network construction. We term this approach \emph{Privacy…
Nowadays, most mobile devices support biometric authentication schemes like fingerprint or face unlock. However, these probabilistic mechanisms can only be activated in combination with a second alternative factor, usually knowledge-based…
Password authentication is a weak point for security as passwords are easily stolen and a user may ignore the security by using a simple password. Therefore, services increasingly demand a second factor. While this may enhance security, it…
There is much discussion and debate about how to improve the security and privacy of mobile communication systems, both voice and data. Most proposals attempt to provide incremental improvements to systems that are deployed today. Indeed,…
A one-time pad (OTP) based cipher to insure both data protection and integrity when mobile code arrives to a remote host is presented. Data protection is required when a mobile agent could retrieve confidential information that would be…
Among the various means of available resource protection including biometrics, password based system is most simple, user friendly, cost effective and commonly used. But this method having high sensitivity with attacks. Most of the advanced…
In this paper, an artificial noise-aided strategy is presented for location-privacy preservation. A novel framework for the reduction of location-privacy leakage is introduced, where structured artificial noise is designed to degrade the…
Local differential privacy (LPD) is a distributed variant of differential privacy (DP) in which the obfuscation of the sensitive information is done at the level of the individual records, and in general it is used to sanitize data that are…
We study a security problem for interconnected systems, where each subsystem aims to detect local attacks using local measurements and information exchanged with neighboring subsystems. The subsystems also wish to maintain the privacy of…
With the wide adoption of handheld devices (e.g. smartphones, tablets) a large number of location-based services (also called LBSs) have flourished providing mobile users with real-time and contextual information on the move. Accounting for…
This paper presents a new scheme to distribute secret shares using two trusted third parties to increase security and eliminate the dependency on single trusted third party. This protocol for communication between a device and two trusted…
In computer networking, the Media Access Control (MAC) address is a unique value associated with a network adapter. MAC addresses are also known as hardware addresses or physical addresses. TCP/IP and other mainstream networking…
