AI agents increasingly require direct, structured access to application data and actions, but production deployments still struggle to express and verify the governance properties that matter in practice: least-privilege authorization,…
Consider a channel where authorized transmitter Jack sends packets to authorized receiver Steve according to a Poisson process with rate $\lambda$ packets per second for a time period $T$. Suppose that covert transmitter Alice wishes to…
Suppose that a transmitter Alice potentially wishes to communicate with a receiver Bob over an adversarially jammed binary channel. An active adversary James eavesdrops on their communication over a binary symmetric channel (BSC(q)), and…
There are a lot of on going efforts in the research community as well as industry around providing privacy-preserving and secure storage for personal data. Although, over time it has adopted many tag lines such as Personal Information Hub…
Access-Control Lists (ACLs) (a.k.a. friend lists) are one of the most important privacy features of Online Social Networks (OSNs) as they allow users to restrict the audience of their publications. Nevertheless, creating and maintaining…
We present a novel approach to secret key establishment that appears to be resistant to currently known quantum cryptanalytic algorithms. This quantum resistance arises because the security of our method does not rely on the difficulty of…
In an organization specifically as virtual as cloud there is need for access control systems to constrain users direct or backhanded action that could lead to breach of security. In cloud, apart from owner access to confidential data the…
As AI agents increasingly perform economic tasks on behalf of humans, a fundamental tension arises between agent autonomy and human control over financial assets. We present the Agent Economic Sovereignty Protocol (AESP), a layered protocol…
In large databases, creating user interface for browsing or performing insertion, deletion or modification of data is very costly in terms of programming. In addition, each modification of an access control policy causes many potential and…
Age of Information (AoI) is a metric and KPI that has been developed for measuring and controlling data freshness. Optimization of AoI in a real-life network requires adapting the rate and timing of transmissions to varying network…
In today's technology-driven world, web services have opened up new opportunities for blind and visually impaired people to interact independently. Securing interactions with these services is crucial; however, currently deployed…
Broadbent and Islam (TCC '20) proposed a quantum cryptographic primitive called quantum encryption with certified deletion. In this primitive, a receiver in possession of a quantum ciphertext can generate a classical certificate that the…
We propose an information-theoretically secure encryption scheme for classical messages with quantum ciphertexts that offers detection of eavesdropping attacks, and re-usability of the key in case no eavesdropping took place: the entire key…
Authenticated Key Exchange (AKE) protocols represent an important cryptographic mechanism that enables several parties to communicate securely over an open network. Elashry, Mu and Susilo proposed in 2015 an Identity Based Authenticated Key…
Sending private messages over communication environments under surveillance is an important challenge in communication security and has attracted attentions of cryptographers through time. We believe that resources other than cryptographic…
Many existing Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions on mobile devices rely on an extensive collection of sensitive data, raising privacy concerns and often requiring storage for both context and model improvement. Apple's Private Cloud…
In Ciphertext-Policy Attribute Based Encryption (CP-ABE), attributes are attached to the user's secret key and access policy is at-tached to the ciphertext. If attributes in the secret key of a user satisfy the policy then only the genuine…
We investigate the physical layer security of uplink single-carrier frequency-division multiple-access (SC-FDMA) systems. Multiple users, Alices, send confidential messages to a common legitimate base-station, Bob, in the presence of an…
Recent progress in (Large) Language Models (LMs) has enabled the development of autonomous LM-based agents capable of executing complex tasks with minimal supervision. These agents have started to be integrated into systems with significant…
Modern computing environments demand robust security measures to protect sensitive data and resources. Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) is a well-established encryption technique known for its fine-grained access…
