Protecting privacy through metadata analysis

Sandra Deepthy Siby

Although encryption hides the content of communications from third parties, metadata, i.e., the information attached to the content (such as the size or timing of communication) can be a rich source of details and context. In this dissertation, we demonstr ...

Beyond Security and Efficiency: On-Demand Ratcheting with Security Awareness

Serge Vaudenay, Andrea Felice Caforio, Fatma Betül Durak

Secure asynchronous two-party communication applies ratcheting to strengthen privacy, in the presence of internal state exposures. Security with ratcheting is provided in two forms: forward security and post-compromise security. There have been several suc ...
