Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman Over COSE (EDHOC) aims at being a very compact and lightweight authenticated Diffie-Hellman key exchange with ephemeral keys. It is expected to provide mutual authentication, forward secrecy, and identity…

Key establishment is one fundamental issue in wireless security. The widely used Diffie-Hellman key exchange is vulnerable to the man-in-the-middle attack. This paper presents a novel in-band solution for defending the man-in-the-middle…

Since the introduction at Crypto'05 by Juels and Weis of the protocol HB+, a lightweight protocol secure against active attacks but only in a detection based-model, many works have tried to enhance its security. We propose here a new…

Middleboxes in a computer network system inspect and analyse network traffic to detect malicious communications, monitor system performance and provide operational services. However, encrypted traffic hinders the ability of middleboxes to…

Blockchains and other public ledger structures promise a new way to create globally consistent event logs and other records. We make use of this consistency property to detect and prevent man-in-the-middle attacks in a key exchange such as…

The development of the Willow quantum chip by Google has sparked significant interest in quantum computing, ushering in a new wave of advancements in the field. As quantum computing technology continues to mature, secure quantum…

In this work we review the security vulnerability of Quantum Cryptography with respect to "man-in-the-middle attacks" and the standard authentication methods applied to counteract these attacks. We further propose a modified authentication…

This paper provides an overview of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its significance. It discusses the concept of Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks in detail, including their causes, potential solutions, and challenges in detecting and…

In this paper we review and comment on "A novel protocol-authentication algorithm ruling out a man-in-the-middle attack in quantum cryptography", [M. Peev et al., Int. J. Quant. Inform., 3, 225, (2005)]. In particular, we point out that the…

This paper presents a survey of man-in-the-middle (MIM) attacks in communication networks and methods of protection against them. In real time communication, the attack can in many situations be discovered by the use of timing information.…

Man-in-The-Middle (MiTM) attacks present numerous threats to a smart grid. In a MiTM attack, an intruder embeds itself within a conversation between two devices to either eavesdrop or impersonate one of the devices, making it appear to be a…

Multi-Channel Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks are special MitM attacks capable of manipulating encrypted Wi-Fi wireless frames between two legitimate endpoints. Since its inception in 2014, attackers have been targeting WPA Wi-Fi networks…

With the advent of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), vehicular networks and cyber-physical systems, the need for real-time data processing and analysis has emerged as an essential pre-requite for customers' satisfaction. In this direction,…

This document describes a dataset with diverse types of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks and Man-in-the-Middle (MiTM) attacks. The data is available at the following DOI 10.21227/mewp-g646. This document describes the data collection process…

We present a protocol enabling two legitimate partners sharing an initial secret to mutually authenticate and to exchange an encryption session key. The opponent is an active Man In The Middle (MITM) with unlimited computation and storage…

Man in the middle attacks are a significant threat to modern e-commerce and online communications, even when such transactions are protected by TLS. We intend to show that it is possible to detect man-in-the-middle attacks on SSL and TLS by…

-Multipath communications at the Internet scale have been a myth for a long time, with no actual protocol being deployed so that multiple paths could be taken by a same connection on the way towards an Internet destination. Recently, the…

With Signal's position as one of the most popular secure messaging protocols in use today, the threat of government coercion and mass surveillance, i.e., active Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, are more relevant than ever. On the other…

We consider a man-in-the-middle attack on two-way quantum key distribution ping-pong and LM05 protocols in which an eavesdropper copies all messages in the message mode, while being undetectable in the mode. Under the attack there is…

This paper discusses a new protocol implementing authentication in a multi-located environment that avoids man-in-the-middle (MIM) attack, replay attack and provides privacy, integrity of a message for multi-located parties. The protocol…
