ONSA:optimal non-uniformly statistic-source anonymity protocol in WSN by Xiao-guang NIU, Chuan-bo WEI, Wei-jiang FENG, Guo-jun PENG, Huan-guo ZHANG

“…According to the characteristics of hierarchical event source-location privacy (SLP) in wireless sensor networks (WSN).Firstly,the effect of the cluster size and the statistical property of fake packet injection on the privacy,latency and network traffic were analyzed.Then,an optimal non-uniformly statistic-source anonymity protocol (ONSA)was proposed to achieve source anonymity and reduce the network traffic.ONSA is designed to achieve a tradeoff between network traffic and real event report latency through adjusting the transmission rate and the radius of non-uniform clusters.The simulation results demonstrate that ONSA significantly reduces the network traffic while providing source anonymity and meeting the system requirement of the delay.…”

Two-way and anonymous heterogeneous signcryption scheme between PKI and IBC by Cai-fen WANG, Chao LIU, Ya-hong LI, Shu-fen NIU, Yu-lei ZHANG

“…Exiting heterogeneous signcryption schemes which were between public key infrastructure (PKI) and identity-based cryptosystem (IBC) have some limitations.A new heterogeneous signcryption scheme between PKI and IBC was proposed.In the random oracle mode,the scheme ensured confidentiality and unforgeability on the basis of the assumption of computational Diffie-Hellman problem (CDHP),q-Diffie-Hellman inversion problem (q-DHIP) and bilinear Diffie-Hellman problem (BDHP).Simultaneously,the proposed scheme guaranteed unconnectedness and anonymity of the ciphertext.Compared with other heterogeneous schemes,the scheme achieved two-way signcryption,and it generated parameters without restrict,which was suitable for actual situations.Simulation tests show that proposed scheme is feasible.…”

Security analysis of weighted network anonymity based on singular value decomposition by Yong ZENG, Lingjie ZHOU, Zhongyuan JIANG, Zhihong LIU, Jianfeng MA

“…The security of anonymous method based on singular value decomposition (SVD) in the privacy preserving of weighted social network was analyzed.The reconstruction method in network with integer weights and the inexact reconstruction method in network with arbitrary weighted were proposed.The <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mfrac> <mi>ε</mi> <mi>N</mi> </mfrac> </math></inline-formula> -tolerance was definited to measure its safety.It was also pointed out that the upper bound of ε (the reconfigurable coefficient) obtained in current spectral theories was so conservative that lacks of guidance.The reconfigurable coefficients of random networks,Barabasi-Albert networks,small world networks and real networks were calculated by experiment.Moreover,the reconfigurable coefficients of double perturbation strategies based on SVD were also tested.Experimental results show that weighted social networks have different tolerances on spectrum loss,and there is a close relationship between its tolerance and network parameters.…”

Anonymous vehicle authentication scheme based on blockchain technology in the intersection scenario by Hao WANG, Tianhao WU, Konglin ZHU, Lin ZHANG

“…With the development of intelligent transportation system,the vehicles will no longer be controlled by the traditional traffic light when they enter or leave the intersection.Instead,they will interact with the local server (LS) near the intersection and accept the regulation of LS.The basic of the security vehicle communication at intersections is authentication of network node.Based on this,an anonymous vehicle authentication scheme based on blockchain technology was proposed.The scheme employed a hybrid cryptography based on identity and hash message authentication code,and recorded the authentication results in blockchains.According to simulation testing and result analysis,the scheme ensures the anonymity and privacy-preserving,with less communication overhead compared to other methods.…”

eDAAAS: Efficient distributed anonymous authentication and access in smart homes by An Braeken, Pawani Porambage, Milos Stojmenovic, Lambros Lambrinos

“…In this article, we propose an authentication scheme based on symmetric key cryptography, combined with a capability-based access control system, to provide the different stakeholders (residents, recurring guests, or temporary guests) end-to-end secure access to the Internet of Things devices in a smart home, managed by the home owner in an anonymous way. The operations in our scheme only include a small number of communication phases and protect the identities of the entities involved (i.e. stakeholders and end-nodes) from any outside entity. …”
