Drynx: Decentralized, Secure, Verifiable System for Statistical Queries and Machine Learning on Distributed Datasets

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza, David Jules Froelicher, Joao André Gomes de Sá e Sousa

Data sharing has become of primary importance in many domains such as big-data analytics, economics and medical research, but remains difficult to achieve when the data are sensitive. In fact, sharing personal information requires individuals' unconditiona ...

Closing Leaks: Routing Against Crosstalk Side-Channel Attacks

Mirjana Stojilovic, Seyedeh Sharareh Mirzargar, Zeinab Seifoori

This paper presents an extension to PathFinder FPGA routing algorithm, which enables it to deliver FPGA designs free from risks of crosstalk attacks. Crosstalk side-channel attacks are a real threat in large designs assembled from various IPs, where some I ...

Subdomain and Access Pattern Privacy Trading off Confidentiality and Performance

Bin Lu, Thomas Locher, Matus Harvan

Homomorphic encryption and secure multi-party computation enable computations on encrypted data. However, both techniques suffer from a large performance overhead. While advances in algorithms might reduce the overhead, we show that achieving perfect (or e ...

The Bussard-Bagga and Other Distance-Bounding Protocols under Attacks

Serge Vaudenay, Aikaterini Mitrokotsa, Asli Bay, Ioana Cristina Carlson, Iosif-Daniel Spulber

The communication between an honest prover and an honest verifier can be intercepted by a malicious man-in-the-middle (MiM), without the legitimate interlocutors noticing the intrusion. The attacker can simply relay messages from one party to another, even ...

Distance Bounding with IEEE 802.15.4a: Attacks and Countermeasures

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Manuel Flury

Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband, in particular the recent standard IEEE 802.15.4a, is a primary candidate for implementing distance bounding protocols, thanks to its ability to perform accurate indoor ranging. Distance bounding protocols allow two wireless de ...

Effectiveness of Distance-Decreasing Attacks Against Impulse Radio Ranging

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Manuel Flury

We expose the vulnerability of an emerging wireless ranging technology, impulse radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB), to distance-decreasing attacks on the physical communication layer (PHY). These attacks violate the security of secure ranging protocols that al ...

About Machine-Readable Travel Documents

Serge Vaudenay, Martin Vuagnoux

Passports are documents that help immigration officers to identify people. In order to strongly authenticate their data and to automatically identify people, they are now equipped with RFID chips. These contain private information, biometrics, and a digita ...

Architecture for Secure and Private Vehicular Communications

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Levente Buttyan, Maxime Raya

The deployment of vehicular communication (VC) systems is strongly dependent on their security and privacy features. In this paper, we propose a security architecture for VC. The primary objectives of the architecture include the management of identities a ...

A model for the design of effective and resilient supply chain security management systems

Ximena Gutiérrez Rueda

The current business environment has become more risky and variable. In particular, the recent terrorist attacks against western economies have revealed the vulnerability of global supply chains. These events showed that companies that move cargo internati ...
