چکیده

Abstract As the smartphone market continues to grow at a rapid pace, secure communication between these devices becomes an important issue. Smartphones are capable of being used in methods that differ vastly from the traditional desktop computing environment, making it possible to create new kinds of security protocols that take advantage of the mobility and other features provided by smartphones. This work presents KeySlinger and StarSlinger, apps for secure key exchange and authenticated/encrypted file transfer, respectively. KeySlinger is built on the SPATE protocol to exchange information between small (fewer than 8 people) or large groups of people in an authenticated manner. StarSlinger uses keys exchanged using KeySlinger to transfer authenticated and encrypted files between users.

Provable Secure Encrypted Key Exchange Protocol Under Standard Model
Encrypted key exchange protocol’s goal is to establish a high secure key used for further encryption and authentication through a low secure password. Most existing encrypted key exchange protocols either lack security proofs or rely on the Random Oracle model. Compared with those protocols based on the Random Oracle model, provable secure EKE (encrypted key exchange) protocols have heavier com...

Two parties that conduct a business transaction through the internet do not see each other personally nor do they exchange any document neither any money hand-to-hand currency. Electronic payment is a way by which the two parties transfer the money through the internet. Therefore integrity of payment and order information of online purchase is an important concern. With online purchase the cust...
متن کاملNumber Theoretic Attacks on Secure Password Schemes
Encrypted Key Exchange (EKE) [1, 2] allows two parties sharing a password to exchange authenticated information over an insecure network by using a combination of public and secret key cryptography. EKE promises security against active attacks and dictionary attacks. Other secure protocols have been proposed based on the use of randomized

In recent day, the enormous usage of cloud services leads to much concerned on cloud security. This paper primarily considers the important aspect of cloud security based on encryption. The users perform secure search on cloud environment using this method. Data stored in cloud are encrypted which ensure the privacy of the user; the files are encrypted before uploading. At the time of searching...
متن کاملEncrypted key exchange: password-based protocols secure against dictionary attacks
Classical cryptographic protocols based on user chosen keys allow an attacker to mount password guessing attacks We introduce a novel combination of asymmetric public key and symmetric secret key cryptography that allow two parties sharing a common password to exchange con dential and authenticated information over an insecure network These proto cols are secure against active attacks and have ...
