Location-Private Interstellar Communication
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mankind is actively trying to communicate with extraterrestrial life. However, historically the discovery of new civilizations has led to war, subjugation, and even elimination. With that in mind, we believe that for any attempted contact with extraterrestrials our location must not be revealed. Therefore, we focus on the problem of location-private interstellar communication. We approach this as a security problem and propose to work towards solutions with tools from the domain of secure communications. As a first step, we give proposals for adversary models, security requirements, and security controls.

Blind evaluation of location based queries using space transformation to preserve location privacy
In this paper we propose a fundamental approach to perform the class of Range and Nearest Neighbor (NN) queries, the core class of spatial queries used in location-based services, without revealing any location information about the query in order to preserve users’ private location information. The idea behind our approach is to utilize the power of one-way transformations to map the space of ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Technique for Private Location-Based Queries with Database Protection
Mobile devices with global positioning capabilities allow users to retrieve points of interest (POI) in their proximity. To protect user privacy, it is important not to disclose exact user coordinates to un-trusted entities that provide location-based services. Currently, there are two main approaches to protect the location privacy of users: (i) hiding locations inside cloaking regions (CRs) a...
متن کاملLocation Updating Schemes for High-Speed Railway Cellular Communication Systems
High-speed railway private cellular network provides voice and data services for passengers. It brings much signaling cost as a great many of mobile subscribers ask for location updating simultaneously. Moreover, it leads to plenty of control signaling channel requests. This paper presents two novel location updating schemes, that is, “clustering location management” and “mobile group location ...
متن کاملEigen-Space Coding as a Means to Support Privacy in Computer Mediated Communication
The current solutions to disclosing privacy in computer-mediated communication are two-fold: either the connection is permitted and an audio-video link is opened providing a full-blown perceptual view on the distant location, or the connection is denied and the distant visitor has no perceptual access to the remote site. We claim that the disclosure of private data is more complex than these si...
متن کاملPrivate Information Retrieval Techniques for Enabling Location Privacy in Location-Based Services
The ubiquity of smartphones and other location-aware handheld devices has resulted in a dramatic increase in popularity of locationbased services (LBS) tailored to user locations. The comfort of LBS comes with a privacy cost. Various distressing privacy violations caused by sharing sensitive location information with potentially malicious services have highlighted the importance of location pri...
