Review of health and well-being aspects in Green Certification Protocols

Over the past decades, the world-leading Green Certification Protocols have been paid increasing attention to health-related aspects of buildings. However, the way and the extent to which green certifications currently account for these aspects vary largel ...

BioID: a Privacy-Friendly Identity Document

Serge Vaudenay, Muhammed Fatih Balli, Fatma Betül Durak

We design a suite of protocols so that a small tamper-resistant device can be used as a biometric identity document which can be scanned by authorized terminals. We target both strongly secure identification and strong privacy. Unlike biometric passports, ...

Nanomechanics of multidomain neuronal cell adhesion protein contactin revealed by single molecule AFM and SMD

Giovanni Dietler, Andrzej Kulik, Karolina Anna Mikulska Ruminska

Contactin-4 (CNTN4) is a complex cell adhesion molecule (CAM) localized at neuronal membranes, playing a key role in maintaining the mechanical integrity and signaling properties of the synapse. CNTN4 consists of six immunoglobulin C2 type (IgC2) domains a ...

Experimental Comparison of Multicast Authentication for Wide Area Monitoring Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Teklemariam Tsegay Tesfay

Multicast is proposed as a preferred communication mechanism for many power grid applications. One of the biggest challenges for multicast in smart grid is ensuring source authentication without violating the stringent time requirement. The research commun ...

Reconstruction of Finite Rate of Innovation Signals with Model-Fitting Approach

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thierry Blu, Zafer Dogan

Finite rate of innovation (FRI) is a recent framework for sampling and reconstruction of a large class of parametric signals that are characterized by finite number of innovations (parameters) per unit interval. In the absence of noise, exact recovery of F ...

The Chaining Lemma and Its Application

Sebastian Faust

We present a new information-theoretic result which we call the Chaining Lemma. It considers a so-called "chain" of random variables, defined by a source distribution X-(0) with high min-entropy and a number (say, t in total) of arbitrary functions (T-1,.. ...

The Inconvenient Truth about Web Certificates

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Julien Freudiger, Nevena Vratonjic, Vincent Bindschaedler

HTTPS is the de facto standard for securing Internet communications. Although it is widely deployed, the security provided with HTTPS in practice is dubious. HTTPS may fail to provide security for multiple reasons, mostly due to certificate-based authentic ...

Methods for efficient certificate revocation list compression

Serge Vaudenay, Rafik Chaabouni, Imad Aad, Valtteri Niemi, Atefeh Mashatan

A method for providing efficient management of certificate revocation may comprise storing a list of identifiers of digital certificates including a revocation list defining a list of revoked certificates in an accumulator, storing a witness value in assoc ...

Short chosen-prefix collisions for MD5 and the creation of a rogue CA certificate

Arjen Lenstra, Dag Arne Osvik

We present a refined chosen-prefix collision construction for MD5 that allowed creation of a rogue Certification Authority (CA) certificate, based on a collision with a regular end-user website certificate provided by a commercial CA. Compared to the previ ...

Secure communication using authenticated channels

Sylvain Pasini

Our main motivation is to design more user-friendly security protocols. Indeed, if the use of the protocol is tedious, most users will not behave correctly and, consequently, security issues occur. An example is the actual behavior of a user in front of an ...

Certificate Revocation List Distribution in Vehicular Communication Systems

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Ghita Mezzour

The need to evict compromised, faulty, or illegitimate nodes is well understood in prominent projects designing security architectures for Vehicular Communication (VC) systems. The basic approach envisioned to achieve this is via distri- bution of Certific ...

Chosen-prefix collisions for MD5 and colliding X.509 certificates for different identities

Arjen Lenstra

We present a novel, automated way to find differential paths for MD5. As an application we have shown how, at an approximate expected cost of 2 50 calls to the MD5 compression function, for any two chosen message prefixes P and P′, suffixe ...

Mobility Helps Peer-to-Peer Security

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Levente Buttyan, Srdan Capkun

We propose a straightforward technique to provide peer-to-peer security in mobile networks. We show that far from being a hurdle, mobility can be exploited to set up security associations among users. We leverage on the temporary vicinity of users, during ...

DICTATE: DIstributed CerTification Authority with probabilisTic frEshness for Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jun Luo, Patrick Eugster

Securing ad hoc networks is notoriously challenging, notably due to the lack of an on-line infrastructure. In particular, key management is a problem that has been addressed by many researchers but with limited results. In this paper, we consider the case ...
