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.

PrudentExposure: a private and user-centric service discovery protocol

TL;DR: A user-centric model, called Prudentexposure, is presented, as the first approach designed for exposing minimal information privately, securely, and automatically for both service providers and users of service discovery protocols.

A Secure Scheme Against Power Exhausting Attacks in Hierarchical Wireless Sensor Networks

TL;DR: The analyses show that the proposed scheme can counter the replay attack and forge attack in an energy-efficient way and shows a reasonable decision rule of coordination between energy conservation and security requirements for WSNs.

Bootstrapping Security in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Identity-Based Schemes with Key Revocation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce two full functional identity-based authentication and key exchange (IDAKE) schemes for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and provide a security and performance discussion of the presented MANET-IDAKE schemes and IDAKE protocol.

Deep Learning with Dense Random Neural Networks for Detecting Attacks Against IoT-Connected Home Environments

TL;DR: Empirical validation results on packet captures in which attacks were inserted show that the Dense RNN correctly detects attacks.

Authentication for Pervasive Computing

TL;DR: Current notions of entity authentication are reviewed and views on how notions of authentication should be revised to address the challenges of the pervasive domain are presented, and some of the new research problems that will arise are 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

K. J. Biba
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

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

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

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.
