The Project PAI Data Protocol ("PAI Data") is a specification that extends the Project PAI Blockchain Protocol to include a method of securing and provisioning access to arbitrary data. In the context of PAI Coin Development Proposal (PDP)…
With the rapid evolution of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), the boundaries and scale of the Internet are continuously expanding. Consequently, the limitations of traditional certificate-based Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) have…
The Domain Name System (DNS) is essential for the Internet, giving a mechanism to resolve hostnames into Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. DNS is known as the world's largest distributed database that manages hostnames and Internet…
The paper presents a comparative overview of decentralized data storages of various types. It is shown that although they have a number of common properties that are typical of all peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, the problems to be solved and,…
Centralized Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) when used in distributed systems have performance constraints as all traffic must traverse through a central server. In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift towards the use of P2P in VPNs…
In this paper we describe how to build a trusted reliable distributed service across administrative domains in a peer-to-peer network. The application we use to motivate our work is a public key time stamping service called Prokopius. The…
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the base for many Internet applications and services to achieve end-to-end security. In this paper, we provide guidance on how to measure TLS deployments, including X.509 certificates and Web PKI. We…
With real-time certificate validation checking, a public-key-using system that needs to validate a certificate executes a transaction with a specialized validation party. At the end of the transaction the validation party returns an…
Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability are basic goals of security architecture. To ensure CIA, many authentication scheme has been introduced in several years. Currently deployment of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a most…
Smart city management is going through a remarkable transition, in terms of quality and diversity of services provided to the end-users. The stakeholders that deliver pervasive applications are now able to address fundamental challenges in…
Password-authenticated identities, where users establish username-password pairs with individual servers and use them later on for authentication, is the most widespread user authentication method over the Internet. Although they are…
Cloud infrastructure is the cornerstone of the modern IT industry. However, managing this infrastructure effectively requires considerable manual effort from the DevOps engineering team. We make a case for developing AI agents powered by…
Threat information sharing is considered as one of the proactive defensive approaches for enhancing the overall security of trusted partners. Trusted partner organizations can provide access to past and current cybersecurity threats for…
Structured P2P overlays provide a framework for building distributed applications that are self-configuring, scalable, and resilient to node failures. Such systems have been successfully adopted in large-scale Internet services such as…
Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is projected to become part of every person's life in some form. The ability to verify and authenticate that an individual is the actual person they are purported to be along with securing the personal…
Public clouds necessitate dynamic resource allocation and sharing. However, the dynamic allocation of IP addresses can be abused by adversaries to source malicious traffic, bypass rate limiting systems, and even capture traffic intended for…
The public sector comprises government agencies, ministries, education institutions, health providers and other types of government, commercial and not-for-profit organisations. Unlike commercial enterprises, this environment is highly…
An architecture to enable some blocks consisting of several nodes in a public cluster connected to different grid collaborations is introduced. It is realized by inserting a web-service in addition to the standard Globus Toolkit. The new…
Transparency - the provision of information about what personal data is collected for which purposes, how long it is stored, or to which parties it is transferred - is one of the core privacy principles underlying regulations such as the…
Hydropower facilities are often remotely monitored or controlled from a centralized remote-control room. Additionally, major component manufacturers monitor the performance of installed components. While these communications enable…
