Build with intrinsic security: Trusted autonomy security system

Cyber Security and Trusted Computing

An increasing number of military systems are being developed using Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Some of the features that make SOA appealing, like loose coupling, dynamism and composition-oriented system construction, make securing service-based systems more complicated. We have been developing Advanced Protected Services (APS) technologies for improving the resilience and survival of S...

Trusted Computing: Security and Applications

The main objective of this paper is to highlight some of the major security and application issues confronting trusted computing technology. This technology, now present in a large proportion of new PCs and incorporating a wide range of cryptographic functionality, has the potential to have a major practical impact, but has not been widely discussed. This paper is an attempt to encourage greate...

Making Security Manifest Security and Autonomy for End Users

With the increased concern over national security there has been increased debate over reliability and security of communications and computer systems. (Bush, 2001). One element of this effort has been on the need for reliable data on computer security risks and incidents. Information is necessary for a functioning market, and transparency (requiring information) is necessary for functional gov...

Un-Trusted-HB: Security Vulnerabilities of Trusted-HB

With increased use of passive RFID tags, the need for secure lightweight identification protocols arose. HB+ is one such protocol, which was proven secure in the detection-based model, but shown breakable by man-in-the-middle attacks. Trusted-HB is a variant of HB+, specifically designed to resist man-in-the-middle attacks. In this paper, we discuss several weaknesses of Trusted-HB, show that t...
