On The Use of Smart Cards and Secure Terminals for Implementing a TCB for REVS Client Applications

چکیده
Trusted voting clients for Internet voting systems are difficult to implement in most hosts running general-purpose operating systems, such as Windows or Linux. The complexity of these systems and the degree of freedom in their configuration makes it nearly impossible to assure the correct behavior of a local voting client application. Therefore, critical parts of client voting applications should be deployed in restricted computing environments, capable of providing a proper Trusted Computing Base (TCB).

An Intrusion-tolerant e-Voting Client System
The ambition of any e-voting system is to reproduce, in an electronic environment, the characteristics of physical voting systems, such as accuracy, democracy, privacy and veri ability. REVS is an Internet e-voting system based on blind signatures and designed to be robust in distributed and faulty environments. However, the execution of REVS client system, used by voters, can be tampered by in...
متن کاملCryptoNET: Integrated Secure Workstation
In most of the current applications security is usually provided individually. This means that various applications use their own security mechanisms and services, applied only to their own resources and functions. Furthermore, procedures to configure security parameters are usually inconvenient and complicated for non-technical users. As an alternative to this approach, we have designed and im...

With the rapid growth of smart device and Internet of things applications, the volume of communication and data in networks have increased. Due to the network lag and massive demands, centralized and traditional cloud computing architecture are not accountable to the high users' demands and not proper for execution of delay-sensitive and real time applications. To resolve these challenges, we p...
متن کاملSmart cards integration in Distributed Information Systems : the Interactive execution model
Wide distributed applications involve several partners, this requires security features when the software components are deployed between the partners. Moreover, the end-user is more and more nomadic and uses several terminals to browse his services. We believe smart cards can be used to meet these new requirements. However, smart cards acts mainly as isolated servers. We propose to improve the...
متن کاملA New Secure Mutual Authentication Scheme with Smart Cards Using Bilinear Pairings
Mutual authentication is an important security property for providing secure remote communication in client-server environment. Up to now, various remote user authentication schemes with smart card using bilinear pairings were proposed by different researchers. Unfortunately, most previously proposed authentication schemes do not provide mutual authentication and session key agreement. This pap...
