—This paper presents VSK, a lightweight adaptable OS authorization architecture suitable for self-protection of pervasive devices. A “virtual” management plane, separate from...
Abstract—Wireless sensor networks are considered ideal candidates for a wide range of applications. It is desirable and sometimes necessary to reprogram sensor nodes through wire...
In-network aggregation is an essential primitive for performing queries on sensor network data. However, most aggregation algorithms assume that all intermediate nodes are trusted...
Abstract. To guarantee the security of computer systems, it is necessary to define security permissions to restrict the access to the systems' resources. These permissions enf...
Computers are notoriously insecure, in part because application security policies do not map well onto traditional protection mechanisms such as Unix user accounts or hardware pag...
