The Untrusted Computer Problem and Camera-Based Authentication
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of computers in public places is increasingly common in everyday life. In using one of these computers, a user is trusting it to correctly carry out her orders. For many transactions, particularly banking operations, blind trust in a public terminal will not satisfy most users. In this paper the aim is therefore to provide the user with authenticated communication between herself and a remote trusted computer, via the untrusted computer. After defining the authentication problem that is to be solved, this paper reduces it to a simpler problem. Solutions to the simpler problem are explored in which the user carries a trusted device with her. Finally, a description is given of two camera-based devices that are being developed.

An ECC-Based Mutual Authentication Scheme with One Time Signature (OTS) in Advanced Metering Infrastructure
Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is a key part of the smart grid; thus, one of the most important concerns is to offer a secure mutual authentication. This study focuses on communication between a smart meter and a server on the utility side. Hence, a mutual authentication mechanism in AMI is presented based on the elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and one time signature (OTS) consists o...

متن کاملPerformance Study of Untrusted Relay Network Utilizing Cooperative Jammer
Abstract—In this paper, the problem of secure transmission in two-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) systems with an untrusted relay is investigated. To prevent the untrusted relay from intercepting the source message and to achieve positive secrecy rate, the destination-based cooperative jamming (DBCJ) technique is used. In this method the destination sends an intended jamming signal to the relay. T...

One of the security issues in data outsourcing is the enforcement of the data owner’s access control policies. This includes some challenges. The first challenge is preserving confidentiality of data and policies. One of the existing solutions is encrypting data before outsourcing which brings new challenges; namely, the number of keys required to access authorized resources, efficient policy u...
