GossiCrypt: Wireless Sensor Network Data Confidentiality Against Parasitic Adversaries

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Jun Luo

Resource and cost constraints remain a challenge for wireless sensor network security. In this paper, we propose a new approach to protect confidentiality against a parasitic adversary, which seeks to exploit sensor networks by obtaining measurements in an ...

A Randomized Countermeasure Against Parasitic Adversaries in Wireless Sensor Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Jun Luo

Due to their limited capabilities, wireless sensor nodes are subject to physical attacks that are hard to defend against. In this paper, we first identify a typical attacker, called parasitic adversary, who seeks to exploit sensor networks by obtaining mea ...

Formal Analysis of Secure Neighbor Discovery in Wireless Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski

We develop a formal framework for the analysis of security protocols in wireless networks. The framework captures characteristics necessary to reason about neighbor discovery protocols, such as the neighbor relation, device location, and message propagatio ...

Protection and Fundamental Vulnerability of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)

Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Aleksandar Jovanovic

An increasing number of mobile applications and services require that devices are aware of their location. Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are the predominant enabling technology. But location information provided by commercial GNSS is not secur ...

Hiding in the Mobile Crowd: Location Privacy through Collaboration

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Reza Shokri, Ehsan Kazemi

Location-aware smartphones support various location-based services (LBSs): users query the LBS server and learn on the fly about their surroundings. However, such queries give away private information, enabling the LBS to track users. We address this probl ...

Effectiveness of Distance-Decreasing Attacks Against Impulse Radio Ranging

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

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 ...

On the Performance of Secure Vehicular Communication Systems

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos

Vehicular communication (VC) systems are being developed primarily to enhance transportation safety and efficiency. Vehicle-to-vehicle communication, in particular, frequent cooperative awareness messages or safety beacons, has been considered over the pas ...

On Secure and Precise IR-UWB Ranging

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

To provide high ranging precision in multipath environments, a ranging protocol should find the first arriving path, rather than the strongest path. We demonstrate a new attack vector that disrupts such precise Time-of-Arrival (ToA) estimation, and allows ...

Castor: Scalable Secure Routing for Ad Hoc Networks

Karl Aberer, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Zoran Despotovic, Wojciech Galuba, Marcin Poturalski

Wireless ad hoc networks are inherently vulnerable, as any node can disrupt the communication of potentially any other node in the network. Many solutions to this problem have been proposed. In this paper, we take a fresh and comprehensive approach that ad ...
