TLDR
A resurrecting duckling security policy model is presented, which describes secure transient association of a device with multiple serialised owners over the air in a short range wireless channel.Abstract:
In the near future, many personal electronic devices will be able to communicate with each other over a short range wireless channel. We investigate the principal security issues for such an environment. Our discussion is based on the concrete example of a thermometer that makes its readings available to other nodes over the air. Some lessons learned from this example appear to be quite general to ad-hoc networks, and rather different from what we have come to expect in more conventional systems: denial of service, the goals of authentication, and the problems of naming all need re-examination. We present the resurrecting duckling security policy model, which describes secure transient association of a device with multiple serialised owners.read more

TL;DR: This paper gives some security methods to adapt to wireless sensor networks for sensor data and network control protocols.
Journal Article
Web service selection using quality criteria and trust based routing protocol
TL;DR: A new algorithm for effective construction of the primitive services according to their quality criteria is introduced and a trust based ranking algorithm is employed to diminish the service with lower qualities.

Security Enhancement for Authentication of Nodes in MANET by Checking the CRL Status of Servers
Azeem Irshad,Wajahat Noshairwan,Muhammad Shafiq,Shahzada Khurram,Ehtsham Irshad,Muhammad Usman +5 more
TL;DR: This work has tried to reduce the overheads in MANET security by introducing an online MANET Authority responsible for issuing certificates by considering the CRL status of servers, renewing them and key verification within MANET that has greatly reduced the external messages.

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.
Integrity Considerations for Secure Computer Systems
TL;DR: The author identifies the integrity problems posed by a secure military computer utility and integrity policies addressing these problems are developed and their effectiveness evaluated.
Tamper resistance: a cautionary note
Ross Anderson,Markus G. Kuhn +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that trusting tamper resistance is problematic; smartcards are broken routinely, and even a device that was described by a government signals agency as 'the most secure processor generally available' turns out to be vulnerable.

Low Cost Attacks on Tamper Resistant Devices
Ross Anderson,Markus G. Kuhn +1 more
TL;DR: A number of attacks that can be mounted by opponents with much shallower pockets, such as smart-cards, are described.

Low cost attacks on tamper resistant devices
Ross Anderson,Markus G. Kuhn +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a number of attacks that can be mounted by opponents with much shallower pockets, three of them involve special (but low cost) equipment: differential fault analysis, chip rewriting, and memory remanence.
