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

Efficient Cryptographic Algorithms and Protocols for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
TL;DR: A novel ultra-lightweight cryptographic algorithm, referred to as Hummingbird, for resource-constrained devices, which can provide the designed security with small block size and is resistant to the most common attacks such as linear and differential cryptanalysis.

Am i in good company? a privacy-protecting protocol for cooperating ubiquitous computing devices
Oliver Stannard,Frank Stajano +1 more
TL;DR: This work explores the design space for the protocol through which portable devices communicate wirelessly, under the additional constraint that eavesdroppers should not be able to recognize and track the user carrying these devices.

TL;DR: This paper shows the practicability of the model through implementing the model experimentally and proposes a model which intends to solve issues of security and configuration complexity while satisfying restrictions, i.e. small embedded devices, isolated networks and private naming system/name space.

Survey of trust models in different network domains
Mohammad Momani,Subhash Challa +1 more
TL;DR: A survey of trust and reputation systems in various domains is conducted, with more details given to models in ad-hoc and sensor networks as they are closely related to each other and to our research interests.

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: 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.
