Security Analysis And Improvement Of Return Routability Protocol, Ying Qiu, Jianying Zhou, Robert H. Deng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Mobile communication plays a more and more important role in computer networks. How to authenticate a new connecting address belonging to a said mobile node is one of the key issues in mobile networks. This paper analyzes the Return Routability (RR) protocol and proposes an improved security solution for the RR protocol without changing its architecture. With the improvement, three types of redirect attacks can be prevented.

Making The Key Agreement Protocol In Mobile Ad Hoc Network More Efficient, Gang Yao, Kui Ren, Feng Bao, Robert H. Deng, Dengguo Feng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Mobile ad hoc networks offer convenient infrastructureless communications over the shared wireless channel. However, the nature of mobile ad hoc networks makes them vulnerable to security attacks, such as passive eavesdropping over the wireless channel and denial of service attacks by malicious nodes. To ensure the security, several cryptography protocols are implemented. Due to the resource scarcity in mobile ad hoc networks, the protocols must be communication efficient and need as less computational power as possible. Broadcast communication is an important operation for many application in mobile ad hoc networks. To securely broadcast a message, all the members in the …

Review Of Personal Identification Systems, J. M. Cross

Research outputs pre 2011

The growth of the use of biometric personal identification systems has been relatively steady over the last 20 years. The expected biometric revolution which was forecast since the mid 1970's has not yet occurred. The main factor for lower than expected growth has been the cost and user acceptance of the systems. During the last few years, however, a new generation of more reliable, less expensive and better designed biometric devices have come onto the market. This combined with the anticipated expansion of new reliable, user friendly inexpensive systems provides a signal that the revolution is about to begin. This …
