Conference: Second International Workshop on Lightweight Cryptography for Security and Privacy (LightSec 2013) Abstract: Lightweight cryptography aims to provide sufficient security with low area/power/energy requirements for constrained devices. In this paper, we focus on the lightweight encryption algorithm specified and approved in NRS 009-6-7:2002 by Electricity Suppliers Liaison Committee to be used with tokens i...
Conference: 24th Annual IFIP WG 11.3 Working Conference on Data and Applications Security (DBSec 2010) Abstract: Authentication assurance level taxonomies that have been specified in many real-world smart identity token deployments do not fully reflect all the security properties associated with their underlying authentication mechanisms. In this paper we describe the development and application of a new metho...
Conference: 22nd Annual IFIP WG 11.3 Working Conference on Data and Applications Security Abstract: Web services-based computing is currently an important driver for the software industry. While several standards bodies (such as W3C and OASIS) are laying the foundation for Web services security, several research problems must be solved to make secure Web services a reality. This talk will present...
