A zero-knowledge proof of identity protocol is a special cryptographic algorithm for identity verification. The security of most of the zero-knowledge proof of identity protocols is based on complex mathematical algorithms and requires heavy computations for both parties involved, the proverb and the verifier. Thus, the two parties must depend on computing devices (computers) to […]
Storing and Indexing Spatial Data in P2P Systems
The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm has become very popular for storing and sharing information in a totally decentralized manner. At first, research focused on P2P systems that host 1D data. Nowadays, the need for P2P applications with multidimensional data has emerged, motivating research on P2P systems that manage such data. The majority of the proposed techniques […]
Secure Data Collection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Randomized Dispersive Routes
Compromised-node and denial-of-service are two key attacks in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this paper, we study data delivery mechanisms that can with high probability circumvent black holes formed by these attacks. We argue that classic multipath routing approaches are vulnerable to such attacks, mainly due to their deterministic nature. So once the adversary acquires […]
Reputation-Based Resource Allocation in P2P Systems of Rational Users
In this paper, we study p2p systems, where peers have to share their available resources between their own and other peers’ needs. One such example is a system of peers who use their capacity-limited access links both for their upstream and downstream connections. In the selfish approach, each peer would like to exploit the full […]
Proxy Signature Scheme Secure against Chosen Key and Chosen Warrant Attacks
An enhanced security model for proxy signature schemes is formalized. In the new model, we consider chosen key and chosen warrant attacks which exist in real environment but were neglected in previous security models. Then we propose a proxy signature scheme from bilinear maps. The proposed proxy signature scheme is based on a secure signature […]
LIGHT: A Query-Efficient Yet Low-Maintenance Indexing Scheme over DHTs
DHT is a widely used building block for scalable P2P systems. However, as uniform hashing employed in DHTs destroys data locality, it is not a trivial task to support complex queries (e.g., range queries and k-nearest-neighbor queries) in DHT-based P2P systems. In order to support efficient processing of such complex queries, a popular solution is […]
Layered Approach Using Conditional Random Fields for Intrusion Detection
Intrusion detection faces a number of challenges; an intrusion detection system must reliably detect malicious activities in a network and must perform efficiently to cope with the large amount of network traffic. In this paper, we address these two issues of Accuracy and Efficiency using Conditional Random Fields and Layered Approach. We demonstrate that high […]
IRM: Integrated File Replication and Consistency Maintenance in P2P Systems
In peer-to-peer file sharing systems, file replication and consistency maintenance are widely used techniques for high system performance. Despite significant interdependencies between them, these two issues are typically addressed separately. Most file replication methods rigidly specify replica nodes, leading to low replica utilization, unnecessary replicas and hence extra consistency maintenance overhead. Most consistency maintenance methods […]
Integration of False Data Detection With Data Aggregation and Confidential Transmission in Wireless Sensor Networks
In wireless sensor networks, compromised sensor nodes can inject false data during both data aggregation and data forwarding. The existing false data detection techniques consider false data injections during data forwarding only and do not allow any change on the data by data aggregation. However, this paper presents a data aggregation and authentication protocol, called […]
Image Copy-Move Forgery Detection Based on SURF
As the advent and growing popularity of image editing software, digital images can be manipulated easily without leaving obvious visual clues. If the tampered images are abused, it may lead to potential social, legal or private consequences. To this end, it’s very necessary and also challenging to find effective methods to detect digital image forgeries. […]
