We consider the problem of secure identification: user U proves to server S that he knows an agreed (possibly low-entropy) password w, while giving away as little information on w as possible, namely the adversary can exclude at most one…
This article proposes a blockchain-based file storage system that utilizes DNA encryption for enhanced security. The system utilizes blockchain technology to provide decentralized and tamper-proof file storage, while DNA encryption is…
Cross-chain NFT migration refers to the process of transferring digital assets along with their associated functionalities and guarantees between distinct blockchain platforms. However, architectural divergences among these platforms…
We consider the problem of storing data in a distributed manner over $T$ servers. We require the data (i) to be recoverable from the $T$ servers, and (ii) to remain private from any $T-1$ colluding servers, where privacy is quantified in…
Ethereum and its standardized token interface have formed decentralized finance (DeFi), an open financial system based on blockchain smart contracts. The DeFi ecosystem has become richer with the introduction of DeFi composability projects,…
Relational and noSQL storages are developed for the fast processing of the large data sets having a stable structure, while the ontologies are used to rep-resent complex and dynamic sets of information of a limited size. In the in-dustrial…
Significant amounts of data are currently being stored and managed on third-party servers. It is impractical for many small scale enterprises to own their private datacenters, hence renting third-party servers is a viable solution for such…
Everyday a huge amount of data is generated in Cloud Computing. The maintenance of this electronic data needs some extremely efficient services. There is a need to properly collect this data, check for its authenticity and develop proper…
This paper address a new problem in RFID authentication research for the first time. That is, existing RFID authentication schemes generally assume that the backend server is absolutely secure, however, this assumption is rarely tenable in…
Permission control vulnerabilities in Non-fungible token (NFT) contracts can result in significant financial losses, as attackers may exploit these weaknesses to gain unauthorized access or circumvent critical permission checks. In this…
In the big data era, many organizations face the dilemma of data sharing. Regular data sharing is often necessary for human-centered discussion and communication, especially in medical scenarios. However, unprotected data sharing may also…
Consider a user who wishes to store a file in multiple servers such that at least t servers are needed to reconstruct the file, and z colluding servers cannot learn any information about the file. Unlike traditional secret-sharing models,…
Let $f=(f_0,f_1,\dots, f_{\nu-1})$ be a collection of one-to-one functions from some space~$X$ into itself such that the sets $f_j(X)$ are disjoint. If $w=w_1w_2\cdots w_k$ is a word on the alphabet $\{0,1,\dots,\nu-1\}$, let $\Phi_{f,w} =…
In the distributed environment, authentication and key exchange mechanisms play a major role. In general, for authentication, the client and the server mutually exchange a common cryptographic key. In earlier, passwords were stored on a…
Secure and trustworthy execution in heterogeneous SoCs is a major priority in the modern computing system. Security of SoCs mainly addresses two broad layers of trust issues: 1. Protection against hardware security threats(Side-channel, IP…
Recent studies show that in supervised fine-tuning (SFT) of large language models (LLMs), data quality matters more than quantity. While most data cleaning methods concentrate on filtering entire samples, the quality of individual tokens…
The management of sensitive data, including identity management (IDM), is an important problem in cloud computing, fundamental for authentication and fine-grained service access control. Our goal is creating an efficient and robust IDM…
Regenerating codes are a class of codes for distributed storage networks that provide reliability and availability of data, and also perform efficient node repair. Another important aspect of a distributed storage network is its security.…
Encrypted control enables confidential controller evaluations in cloud-based or networked control systems. From a technical point of view, an encrypted controller is a modified control algorithm that is capable of computing encrypted…
Biometric authentication is used to secure digital or physical access. Such an authentication system uses a biometric database, where data are sometimes protected by cancelable transformations. This paper introduces the notion of biometric…
