I For the clinician first encountering the legal system, the fundamental concept of the law perhaps most difficult to grasp is the nature of the adversary process. Whether such a first encounter occurs during a commitment proceeding on a manifestly psychotic patient, in the preliminaries or disposi...

A system that protects the unlinkability of certain data items (e. g. identifiers of communication partners, messages, pseudonyms, transactions, votes) does not leak information that would enable an adversary to link these items. The adversary could, however, take advantage of hints from the context in which the system operates. In this paper, we introduce a new metric that enables one to quant...

Security attacks are hard to understand, often expressed with unfriendly and limited details, making it difficult for security experts and for security analysts to create intelligible security specifications. For instance, to explain Why (attack objective), What (i.e., system assets, goals, etc.), and How (attack method), adversary achieved his attack goals. We introduce in this paper a securit...

In January 2012, MITRE performed a real-time, red team/blue team cyber-wargame experiment. This presented the opportunity to blend cyber-warfare with traditional mission planning and execution, including denial and deception tradecraft. The cyberwargame was designed to test a dynamic network defense cyber-security platform being researched in The MITRE Corporation’s Innovation Program called Bl...

Trust management systems are vulnerable to so-called probing attacks, which enable an adversary to gain knowledge about confidential facts in the system. We present the first method for deciding if an adversary can gain knowledge about confidential information in a Datalog-based policy.

Several MIX-based systems offering anonymity have been operational. They are usually based on a relatively small set of static, well known and highly reliable nodes with good performance and connectivity that offer the MIX functionality. Due to the small number of nodes in such a system, they must be made very resistant against traffic analysis attacks by exchanging lots of cover traffic, resul...
