User authentication (UA) supports the receiver in deciding whether a message comes from the claimed transmitter or from an impersonating attacker. In cryptographic approaches messages are signed with either an asymmetric or symmetric key,…
We present a data storage scheme for sensor networks that achieves the targets of encryption and distributed storage simultaneously. We partition the data to be stored into numerous pieces such that at least a specific number of them have…
It allows any two parties that are either both on the same network or connected via the internet to transfer the contents of a file based on a particular sequence of words. Peer discovery happens via multicast DNS if both peers are on the…
Aggregate statistics play an important role in extracting meaningful insights from distributed data while preserving privacy. A growing number of application domains, such as healthcare, utilize these statistics in advancing research and…
We present the design and implementation of SafetyPin, a system for encrypted mobile-device backups. Like existing cloud-based mobile-backup systems, including those of Apple and Google, SafetyPin requires users to remember only a short PIN…
A while ago, I developed what I called an encryption method. The most favorable of reviews did not see a method but a collection of techniques. Be that as it may, the process used, is described in the paper, Windtalking Computers. This…
Passwords are the most widely used method of authentication and password guessing is the essential part of password cracking and password security research. The progress of deep learning technology provides a promising way to improve the…
User authentication can rely on various factors (e.g., a password, a cryptographic key, biometric data) but should not reveal any secret or private information. This seemingly paradoxical feat can be achieved through zero-knowledge proofs.…
The average user has between 90-130 online accounts, and around $3 \times 10^{11}$ passwords are in use this year. Most people are terrible at remembering "random" passwords, so they reuse or create similar passwords using a combination of…
The cloud computing platform gives people the opportunity for sharing resources, services and information among the people of the whole world. In private cloud system, information is shared among the persons who are in that cloud. For this,…
In this paper, we present AltVoice -- a system designed to help user's protect their privacy when using remotely accessed voice services. The system allows a user to conceal their true voice identity information with no cooperation from the…
This chapter is going to deal with enhancing the efficiency of Biometric by integrating it with Salt Value (randomly generated value of varying length). Normally at an enterprise level or data centres, the servers are maintained with…
Homomorphic encryption is a sophisticated encryption technique that allows computations on encrypted data to be done without the requirement for decryption. This trait makes homomorphic encryption appropriate for safe computation in…
Data and data processing have become an indispensable aspect for our society. Insights drawn from collective data make invaluable contribution to scientific and societal research and business. But there are increasing worries about privacy…
Protocols satisfying Local Differential Privacy (LDP) enable parties to collect aggregate information about a population while protecting each user's privacy, without relying on a trusted third party. LDP protocols (such as Google's RAPPOR)…
Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) is a rapidly proliferating e-commerce model, offering consumers to get the product immediately and defer payments. Meanwhile, emerging blockchain technologies endow BNPL platforms with digital currency transactions,…
In this paper, we propose a simple enhancement for the passkey entry protocol in the authentication stage 1 of Secure Simple Pairing using preexisting cryptographic hash functions and random integer generation present in the protocol. The…
This paper describes a new password-based mutual authentication protocol for Web systems which prevents various kinds of phishing attacks. This protocol provides a protection of user's passwords against any phishers even if dictionary…
Traditional access control systems, such as key cards, PIN pads, and physical keys, face challenges in scalability, security, and user experience in today's digital world. We present a cloud-based entry system using Raspberry Pi hardware…
CASPaxos is a wait-free, linearizable, multi-writer multi-reader register in unreliable, asynchronous networks supporting arbitrary update operations including compare-and-set (CAS). The register acts as a replicated state machine providing…
