Continuously measured quantum systems are characterized by an output current, in the form of a stochastic and correlated time series which conveys crucial information about the underlying quantum system. The many tools used to describe…

We introduce a prototype tool strategFTO addressing the verification of a security property in critical software. We consider a recent definition of timed opacity where an attacker aims to deduce some secret while having access only to the…

Opacity is a property that captures security concerns in cyber-physical systems and its verification plays a significant role. This paper investigates the verifications of K-step and infinite-step weak and strong opacity for partially…

Opacity is a confidentiality property that holds when certain secret strings of a given system cannot be revealed to an outside observer under any system activity. Opacity violations stimulate the study of opacity enforcement strategies.…

Quantum optical Gaussian states are a type of important robust quantum states which are manipulatable by the existing technologies. So far, most of the important quantum information experiments are done with such states, including bright…

In this paper, we investigate the enforcement of opacity via supervisory control in the context of discrete-event systems. A system is said to be opaque if the intruder, which is modeled as a passive observer, can never infer confidently…

In this thesis we consider the problem of information hiding in the scenarios of interactive systems, statistical disclosure control, and refinement of specifications. We apply quantitative approaches to information flow in the first two…

Privacy-preserving state estimation for linear time-invariant dynamical systems with crowd sensors is considered. At any time step, the estimator has access to measurements from a randomly selected sensor from a pool of sensors with…

Although there are many mathematical theories to address uncertain phenomena however, these theories are presented under implicit presupposition that uncertainty of objects is accurately measurable while not considering that the measure of…

Anonymity has become a significant issue in security field by recent advances in information technology and internet. The main objective of anonymity is hiding and concealing entities privacy inside a system. Many methods and protocols have…

Average consensus underpins key functionalities of distributed systems ranging from distributed information fusion, decision-making, distributed optimization, to load balancing and decentralized control. Existing distributed average…

The study of Gaussian states has arisen to a privileged position in continuous variable quantum information in recent years. This is due to vehemently pursued experimental realisations and a magnificently elegant mathematical framework. In…

The aim of this paper is to review a new perspective about decoherence, according to which formalisms originally devised to deal just with closed or open systems can be subsumed under a closed-system approach that generalizes the…

In this work, we focus on solving a decentralized consensus problem in a private manner. Specifically, we consider a setting in which a group of nodes, connected through a network, aim at computing the mean of their local values without…

In this work, we address the objective of protecting the states of a distributed dynamical system from eavesdropping adversaries. We prove that state-of-the-art distributed algorithms, which rely on communicating the agents' states, are…

Private signals model noisy information about an unknown state. Although these signals are called "private," they may still carry information about each other. Our paper introduces the concept of private private signals, which contain…

In this paper, we study a security problem of protecting secrets in distributed systems. Specifically, we employ discrete-event systems to describe the structure and behaviour of distributed systems, in which global secret information is…

In this work, inspired by secret sharing schemes, we introduce a privacy-preserving approach for network consensus, by which all nodes in a network can reach an agreement on their states without exposing the individual state to neighbors.…

Consensus is fundamental for distributed systems since it underpins key functionalities of such systems ranging from distributed information fusion, decision-making, to decentralized control. In order to reach an agreement, existing…

This paper introduces a unified model of consistency and isolation that minimizes the gap between how these guarantees are defined and how they are perceived. Our approach is premised on a simple observation: applications view storage…
