Cyber risk assessment of power control systems — A metrics weighed by attack experiments

TL;DR: The paper summarises the results of research activities performed by RSE to evaluate the exposition to cyber risks of the power grid control systems and defines a risk metric assigning a value to the cyber/power risk in relation to the occurrence rate of cyber contingencies and their impact on the power service.

A lightweight and secure TFTP protocol for smart environment

TL;DR: An enhancement of a security protocol for bulk data transfer amongst embedded devices (similar to the practices in IOT) is presented and a security framework for enhancing security, trust and privacy (STP) for embedded system infrastructure is proposed.

Securing the Border Gateway Protocol: A Status Update

TL;DR: Refinements to the original S-BGP design, based on interactions with ISP operations personnel and further experience with a prototype implementation are presented, including a heuristic for significantly improving performance and a comparison of S- BGP to other proposed approaches.

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Commodity Security Protocols: Introduction and Integration

TL;DR: An overview of quantum key distribution (QKD), a secure key exchange method based on the quantum laws of physics rather than computational complexity, and the two most widely used commodity security protocols, IPsec and TLS are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The security challenges for mobile ubiquitous services

TL;DR: The security issues germane to a mobile ubiquitous environment are examined and some possible solutions which may be employed to address these security issues are suggested.

New Directions in Cryptography

TL;DR: This paper suggests ways to solve currently open problems in cryptography, and discusses how the theories of communication and computation are beginning to provide the tools to solve cryptographic problems of long standing.

Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels

S. Bradner
TL;DR: This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents as well as providing guidelines for authors to incorporate this phrase near the beginning of their document.

Using encryption for authentication in large networks of computers

TL;DR: Use of encryption to achieve authenticated communication in computer networks is discussed and example protocols are presented for the establishment of authenticated connections, for the management of authenticated mail, and for signature verification and document integrity guarantee.

Internet Protocol, Version 6 (IPv6) Specification

S. Deering, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors specify version 6 of the Internet Protocol (IPv6), also referred to as IP Next Generation or IPng, and propose a new protocol called IPng.

Internet Protocol

J. Postel
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
