Human Proxies In Cryptographic Networks

Human Proxies offer new directions to end-to-end encryption: End-A-to-End-Z encryption must be rethought when it turns out to be an End-B-to-End-Z encryption. And, Human Proxies raise questions that were neither answered by science, journalists nor the public. Regular Proxies on a network are forwarding Internet requests, e.g., to download a webpage. Also, in political and social settings a Proxy as an intermediate, deputy or representative with a similar function is given. Human Proxies now enable within the Encryption and Messenger Application Spot-On to choose a friend as a Human Proxy. The Spot-On program is a most modern and elaborated encryption suite available for several operation systems and provides many innovations in applied cryptography. It builds based on the Echo Protocol a cryptographic network, that is beyond Cryptographic Routing. With Human Proxies now a friend from the Messenger friends list sends out the chat message instead of the original sender. The construct of the "Inner Envelope" behind the Human Proxy function also creates new cryptographic challenges, provides plausible deniability to included nodes, and offers new perspectives in encryption, its analysis and decryption: As all messages in the network are encrypted, end-to-end encryption is new defined and gets with Human Proxies a potential second and plausible deniable start point. The essay in this book discusses some related aspects of Human Proxies and their referring's to encryption, networking, graph theory and comparable social and political processes of Proxies. This leads to a further general approach: Endpoints in Encryption are equipped by the application Spot-On with the vision of interoperability of endpoints in communications. | English & German language.

The Human Machine Interaction in the Digital Era (ICHMIDE) 2023 conference aims to address the main issues of concern in the design issues with a particular emphasis on the design and development of interfaces for autonomous robots. Its main objective is to provide an international forum for the dissemination and exchange of up-to-date scientific information on research related to integrated human/machine systems at multiple scales, and includes areas such as human/machine interaction, engineering mathematical models, assistive technologies, system modelling, design, testing and validation. The organization of ICHMS is based on the following Track types: Smart Applications for Digital Era, Computational Mathematical and Electronics, Intelligent Systems in Security and Communication Technologies, Technological Interventions using AI and Machine Learning, Applied Science, and IoT Techniques for Industries.

The two-volume set LNCS 12726 + 12727 constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security, ACNS 2021, which took place virtually during June 21-24, 2021. The 37 full papers presented in the proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 186 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Cryptographic protocols; secure and fair protocols; cryptocurrency and smart contracts; digital signatures; embedded system security; lattice cryptography; Part II: Analysis of applied systems; secure computations; cryptanalysis; system security; and cryptography and its applications.

This book includes selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the International Conference on Computing and Communication Networks (ICCCN 2021), held at Manchester Metropolitan University, United Kingdom, during 19–20 November 2021. The book covers topics of network and computing technologies, artificial intelligence and machine learning, security and privacy, communication systems, cyber physical systems, data analytics, cyber security for Industry 4.0, and smart and sustainable environmental systems.

Cryptography An introduction to one of the backbones of the digital world Cryptography is one of the most important aspects of information technology security, central to the protection of digital assets and the mitigation of risks that come with increased global connectivity. The digital world is wholly reliant on secure algorithms and protocols for establishing identity, protecting user data, and more. Groundbreaking recent developments in network communication and a changing digital landscape have been accompanied by similar advances in cryptography, which is more central to digital life than ever before. This book constitutes a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the algorithms, protocols, and standards which protect the modern internet. Built around both foundational theories and hundreds of specific algorithms, it also incorporates the required skills in complex mathematics. The result is an indispensable introduction to the protocols and systems which should define cryptography for decades to come. Readers will also find: Over 450 problems with accompanying solutions to reinforce key concepts and test retention Detailed discussion of topics including symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, random number generation, user authentication, and many more Over 200 figures and tables that provide rich detail to the content Cryptography: Algorithms, Protocols, and Standards for Computer Security is ideal for undergraduate and graduate students in cryptography and information technology subjects, as well as for researchers looking for a working reference on existing cryptographic algorithms and protocols.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security, ACNS 2014, held in Lausanne, Switzerland, in June 2014. The 33 revised full papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 147 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on key exchange; primitive construction; attacks (public-key cryptography); hashing; cryptanalysis and attacks (symmetric cryptography); network security; signatures; system security; and secure computation.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the satellite workshops held around the 19th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security, ACNS 2021, held in Kamakura, Japan, in June 2021. The 26 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They stem from the following workshops: AIBlock 2021: Third International Workshop on Application Intelligence and Blockchain Security AIHWS 2021: Second International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Hardware Security AIoTS 2021: Third International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Industrial IoT Security CIMSS 2021: First International Workshop on Critical Infrastructure and Manufacturing System Security Cloud S&P 2021: Third International Workshop on Cloud Security and Privacy SCI 2021: Second International Workshop on Secure Cryptographic Implementation SecMT 2021: Second International Workshop on Security in Mobile Technologies SiMLA 2021; Third International Workshop on Security in Machine Learning and its Applications Due to the Corona pandemic the workshop was held as a virtual event.

Information security is the act of protecting information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. This book discusses why information security is needed and how security problems can have widespread impacts. It covers the complete security lifecycle of products and services, starting with requirements and policy development and progressing through development, deployment, and operations, and concluding with decommissioning. Professionals in the sciences, engineering, and communications fields will turn to this resource to understand the many legal, technical, competitive, criminal and consumer forces and influences that are rapidly changing our information dependent society.
