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

Different routing protocols and their vulnerabilities and their measures
TL;DR: This paper discusses in depth about the various routing protocols in MANET and classify them, and compared their vulnerabilities in form of attacks, and classify these attacks.
Touch-and-Connect: A Connection Request Framework for the Ubiquitous Computing Environment
TL;DR: A user-friendly connection request framework called “Touch-and-Connect”, which can connect any networked devices only by touching them, and is designed so that it can work without a server, and even if many individuals operate it independently, no incorrect connections occur.

Strategies for time-based multi-path secure information disseminations in MANETs
Xiaoyan Hong,Bo Gu,Qunwei Zheng +2 more
TL;DR: The paper focuses on analyzing the strategies that a node can use in determining the intervals between two shares, and in tuning to applicationspsila requirements on delay bounds, and provides a guideline for the configuration and the security of the scheme.
Efficient, Reliable and Secure Distributed Protocols for MANETs.
TL;DR: A novel algorithm for enhancing the efficiency and robustness of distributed protocols for contacting TA nodes in MANETs is presented and a probabilistic path authentication scheme based on message authentication codes (MACs) is presented.

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.
