The Location Service (LCS) proposed by the telecommunication industry is an architecture that allows the location of mobile devices to be accessed in various applications. We explore the use of LCS in location-enhanced server…
Digital identities today continue to be a company resource instead of belonging to the actual person they represent. At the same time, the digitalization of everyday services intensifies the Identity Management problem and leads to a…
Network traffic inspection, including TLS traffic, in enterprise environments is widely practiced. Reasons for doing so are primarily related to improving enterprise security (e.g., malware detection) and meeting legal requirements. To…
The majority of electronic communication today happens either via email or chat. Thanks to the use of standardised protocols electronic mail (SMTP, IMAP, POP3) and instant chat (XMPP, IRC) servers can be deployed in a decentralised but…
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol is a cryptographic protocol designed to secure communication over the internet. The TLS protocol has become a fundamental in secure communication, most commonly used for securing web browsing…
In a cloud computing environment, access control policy is an effective means of fortification cloud users and cloud resources services against security infringements. Based on analysis of current cloud computing security characteristics,…
Named Data Networking (NDN) secures network communications by requiring all data packets to be signed when produced. This requirement necessitates efficient and usable mechanisms to handle NDN certificate issuance and revocation, making…
SSL/TLS is a fundamental technology in the network protocol stack that enables encrypted data transmission and authentication of web domains. However, the current model relies on a small number of Certificate Authorities (CAs) to provide…
Encrypted traffic poses new and unique challenges for network operators because information that is useful or necessary for management purposes is not accessible anymore. This paper examines proposed approaches to provide end-to-end…
Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) are rapidly emerging as a root-of-trust for protecting sensitive applications and data using hardware-backed isolated worlds of execution. TEEs provide robust assurances regarding critical algorithm…
"Distributed Identity" refers to the transition from centralized identity systems using Decentralized Identifiers (DID) and Verifiable Credentials (VC) for secure and privacy-preserving authentications. With distributed identity, control of…
Security and privacy of the Internet Domain Name System (DNS) have been longstanding concerns. Recently, there is a trend to protect DNS traffic using Transport Layer Security (TLS). However, at least two major issues remain: (1) how do…
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) protocol has become an integral part of modern Internet technology. Currently, it is the primary protocol for commercialized web applications. It can provide a fast, secure connection with a…
The DNS HTTPS resource record is a new DNS record type designed for the delivery of configuration information and parameters required to initiate connections to HTTPS network services. In addition, it is a key enabler for TLS Encrypted…
Interoperation for data sharing between permissioned blockchain networks relies on networks' abilities to independently authenticate requests and validate proofs accompanying the data; these typically contain digital signatures. This…
The DNS relies on caching to ensure high scalability and good performance. In optimizing caching, TTL adjustment provides a means of balancing between query load and TTL-dependent performances such as data consistency, load balancing,…
Cloud computing is significantly reshaping the computing industry built around core concepts such as virtualization, processing power, connectivity and elasticity to store and share IT resources via a broad network. It has emerged as the…
The distributed structure of the Internet of things has gradually replaced the centralized structure because of its scalability, security, and single point of failure. The huge scale of information recording of the Internet of things brings…
Due to the convergence of various mobile access technologies like UMTS, WLAN, and WiMax the need for a new supporting infrastructure arises. This infrastructure should be able to support more efficient ways to authenticate users and…
The authentication field is evolving towards mechanisms able to keep users continuously authenticated without the necessity of remembering or possessing authentication credentials. While existing continuous authentication systems have…
