Musick, Geoff (author), Duan, Wen (author), Najafian, S. (author), Sengupta, Subhasree (author), Flathmann, Christopher (author), Knijnenburg, Bart (author), McNeese, Nathan (author)Newly-formed teams often encounter the challenge of members coming together to collaborate on a project without prior knowledge of each other’s working and communication styles. This lack of familiarity can lead to conflicts and misunderstandings, hindering effective teamwork. Derived from research in social recommender systems, team...journal article 2024

Kurteva, A.K. (author), Pandit, Harshvardhan J. (author)Protecting and preserving individuals’ personal data is a legal obligation set out by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). However, the process of implementing data governance to support that, in a decentralised ecosystem, is still vague. Motivated by the need for lawful decentralised data processing, this paper...conference paper 2023

Wang, Wei (author), Liu, Dongli (author), Xu, Peng (author), Yang, Laurence Tianruo (author), Liang, K. (author)It has become a trend for clients to outsource their encrypted databases to remote servers and then leverage the Searchable Encryption technique to perform secure data retrieval. However, the method has yet to be considered a crucial need for replication on searchable encrypted data. It calls for challenging works on Dynamic Searchable...journal article 2023

Memar Zahedani, Armin (author), Vos, J.V. (author), Erkin, Z. (author)Double auctions are procedures to trade commodities such as electricity or parts of the wireless spectrum at optimal prices. Buyers and sellers inform the auctioneer what quantity they want to buy or sell at specific prices. The auctioneer aggregates these offers into demand and supply curves and finds the intersection representing the...conference paper 2023

Gordijn, Daan (author), Kromes, R.G. (author), Giannetsos, Thanassis (author), Liang, K. (author)This work aims to provide a more secure access control in Hyperledger Fabric blockchain by combining multiple ID’s, attributes, and policies with the components that regulate access control. The access control system currently used by Hyperledger Fabric is first completely analyzed. Next, a new implementation is proposed that builds upon the...conference paper 2023

Wang, Lili (author), Lin, Ye (author), Yao, Ting (author), Xiong, Hu (author), Liang, K. (author)Existing proxy re-encryption (PRE) schemes to secure cloud data sharing raise challenges such as supporting the heterogeneous system efficiently and achieving the unbounded feature. To address this problem, we proposed a fast and secure unbounded cross-domain proxy re-encryption scheme, named FABRIC, which enables the delegator to authorize...journal article 2023

El-Zawawy, Mohamed A. (author), Lal, C. (author), Conti, M. (author)With the rapid technological advancement in the Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Vehicles (IoV), we witness exponential growth of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs). However, these integrations of IoV with other technologies make the IoV network and its interaction between different network components highly complex. Therefore,...journal article 2023

Cardaioli, Matteo (author), Conti, M. (author), Orazi, Gabriele (author), Tricomi, Pier Paolo (author), Tsudik, Gene (author)Authentication and de-authentication phases should occur at the beginning and end of secure user sessions, respectively. A secure session requires the user to pass the former, but the latter is often underestimated or ignored. Unattended or dangling sessions expose users to well-known Lunchtime Attacks. To mitigate this threat, researchers...journal article 2023

To this end, their content is designed to be of maximum interest to malicious users. However, by choosing an appropriate content topic, this attractive mechanism could be extended to any OSN users, rather than...conference paper 2023

Chiasson, David (author), Lin, Yuan (author), Kok, M. (author), Shull, Peter (author)Hyperbolic localization measures the time difference of arrivals (TDOAs) of signals to determine the location of a wireless source or receiver. Traditional methods depend on precise clock synchronization between nodes so that time measurements from independent devices can be meaningfully compared. Imperfect synchronization is often the dominant...journal article 2023

Li, Qiongxiu (author), Heusdens, R. (author), Christensen, M.T. (author)Privacy issues and communication cost are both major concerns in distributed optimization in networks. There is often a trade-off between them because the encryption methods used for privacy-preservation often require expensive communication overhead. To address these issues, we, in this paper, propose a quantization-based approach to achieve...journal article 2022

Zheng, Yubo (author), Xu, Peng (author), Wang, Wei (author), Chen, Tianyang (author), Susilo, Willy (author), Liang, K. (author), Jin, Hai (author)Many practical secure systems have been designed to prevent real-world attacks via maximizing the attacking cost so as to reduce attack intentions. Inspired by this philosophy, we propose a new concept named delay encryption with keyword search (DEKS) to resist the notorious keyword guessing attack (KGA), in the context of secure cloud-based...conference paper 2022
