Password-based three-party authenticated key exchange protocol from lattices by Jinxia YU, Huanhuan LIAN, Yongli TANG, Mengyao SHI, Zongqu ZHAO

“…Password-based three-party authenticated key exchange protocol allow clients to establish a protected session key through a server over insecure channels.Most of the existing PAKE protocols on lattices were designed for the two parties,which could not be applied to large-scale communication systems,so a novel three-party PAKE protocol from lattices was proposed.The PAKE protocol was constructed by using a splittable public-key encryption scheme and an associated approximate smooth projective Hash function,and message authentication mechanism was introduced in the protocol to resist replay attacks.Compared with the similar protocols,the new protocol reduces the number of communication round and improves the efficiency and the security of protocol applications.…”

Completed local binary pattern based speech anti-spoofing by Jian XU, Zhihua JIAN, Jiaqi YU, Yifan JIN, Lin YOU, Yunlu WANG

“…In view of the fact that the disguised speech detection algorithm based on local binary pattern (LBP) is not effective in detecting the spoofing attack from voice conversion, an anti-spoofing method based on completed local binary pattern (CLBP) was proposed.In this method, the spectrogram of speech signals is generated by the variable Q transformation (VQT) and used to train the true/spoofed speech classifier, so as to perform the detection of disguised speech.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed anti-spoofing method based on the CLBP in the detection of voice conversion deception is better than the LBP-based algorithm, and when the parameter γ in VQT is set to 50, the detection system based on CLBP and SVM-RBF has the best performance for anti-spoofing the disguise speech.…”

Architecture and mechanisms for secure and efficient internetworking of heterogeneous network by Hongbin LUO, Shan ZHANG, Zhiyuan WANG

“…An architecture named CoLoR (coupling service location and inter-domain routing) was introduced to securely and efficiently interconnect networks with different architectures (called heterogeneous networks below).First, the fundamental challenges and scientific problems that have to be addressed by CoLoR were raised.Then, the core aspects of CoLoR were described, including how to characterize and represent the cyberphysical system comprised by heterogeneous networks, the network architecture, the basic communication model and how secure internetworking was achieved.After that, results from prototype implementation were presented to demonstrate the feasibility and capability of CoLoR, including defending against attacks and preventing data leakage.Finally, some open issues were outlined for future studies.…”

Proactive migration model of SWIM service based on situation awareness by Zhijun WU, Shengyan ZHOU, Jin LEI

“…To solve the problem that in the system wide information management (SWIM) network,the SWIM service provider suffers from SWIM service interruption,service delay increase or service quality degradation due to malicious attack or self-failure.Therefore,a proactive migration model of SWIM service was proposed on the basis of situation awareness,which used the random forest algorithm to timely judge the SWIM service provider security situation.SWIM service authority was actively migrated according to security situation,and the emergencies impact on SWIM services were reduces.Experimental results show that the proposed model can guarantee services continuity in an emergency event,which has higher reliability and stability than SWIM network in which the service migration model is not deployed.…”

Implementation and evaluation of big data desensitization system based on format-preserving encryption by Chaoyi BIAN, Shaomin ZHU, Tao ZHOU

“…Data desensitization is a process that makes some special transformations on sensitive data in order to protect the secrecy and privacy from being acquired by malicious attackers.Format-preserving encryption is one of the techniques of data desensitization, which has the advantage of keeping data format unchanged so that the upper layer applications are not affected.Along with the coming of big data and the wide application of the Hadoop platform, data desensitization techniques for traditional relational database management systems cannot satisfy the need of production. …”

Anonymous survey system based on NIZK by Lu LIU, Yu-xi LI, Fu-cai ZHOU

“…Aiming at the security problem that the existing in electronic surveys,such as information fraud,privacy security etc.An anonymous electronic survey scheme based on non-interactive zero knowledge proofs (NIZK) was constructed,which had the characteristics of self-organization,non-interactive,anti-replay,and high efficiency.The system uses the NIZK protocol and the Boneh-Boyen signature scheme to verify the user's identity in non-interactive manner,which guarantees the authenticity of the scheme.The system also uses the Pedersen commitment scheme and the pseudo random function to hide the user's identity and the related information,which guarantees the ano-nymity.Security analysis show that the system has security features such as malicious users attack resistance and anonymity.Finally,the function of the system was also verified and the result show that the system can accomplish all the functions correctly and guarantee the anonymity and authenticity of the system effectively.…”

Message encryption and authentication mechanism based on wireless physical layer key by Xingzhi,JINLiang LI, Zhou ZHONG, Yangming LOU

“…In order to solve the problem of hidden key leakage in traditional high-level message authentication and passive eavesdropping in physical layer message authentication,a message encryption and authentication mechanism based on the characteristics of wireless physical layer was proposed.By extracting the characteristics of the wireless channel,the physical layer key was generated and the seed key was generated by combining the identity key.The key stream generator then generated the key stream to decrypt the message according to the extracted seed,protects the privacy of the transmitted data,and the final receiver authenticated the authenticity and integrity of the received message through the CRC verification result.Simulation results show that the proposed method has better performance in preventing passive eavesdropping and active attack,and the randomness of key stream is greatly improved and the rate of authentication leak detection is reduced by half.…”

Diversity of controllable anonymous communication system by Yan-wei ZHOU, Zhen-qiang WU, Bo YANG

“…With the development of network communication technology,the Tor anonymous communication system has been widely used.However,there are also some unsafe factors such as insufficient anonymity which deserves to be noticed.Thus,a diversified controllable anonymous communication system (DC-ACS) was proposed based on the node regional management strategy.The diversified anonymous link establishment mechanism chooses nodes in the corresponding field to build the anonymous communication link according to users’ needs,controls users’ malicious anonymous activities,and ensures the anonymity of senders and receivers to the first and last node of anonymous communication link.Compared with the Tor anonymous communication system,DC-ACS not only has anonymity,but also has higher security and anti-attack capability,which eliminated potential security risks existed in the Tor anonymous communications system.…”
