Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are ad hoc networks composed mainly of tiny and resource- constrained sensor nodes, and are rapidly growing as a technology for low-cost, large-scale and automated systems to sense and monitor a different range of potential environments. Network Coding (NC) technique has been proposed for these networks for various r...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) face some security issues when transmitting data to the base station as these networks involve resources scarcity that needs to be tackled in the routing protocols. More specifically, collected and distributed data are only profitable if their confidentiality is guaranteed. Lately, some approaches have used network c...

In the growing Internet of Things context, thousands of computing devices with various functionalities are producing data (from environmental sensors or other sources). However, they are also collecting, storing, processing and transmitting data to eventually communicate them securely to third parties (e.g., owners of devices or cloud data storage)...

Fleets of UAVs will be deployed in near future in reliability and safety critical applications (e.g. for smart cities). To satisfy the stringent level of criticality, each UAV in the fleet must trust the other UAVs with which it communicates to get assurance of the trustworthiness in information received and to be sure not to disclose information t...

With the development of pervasive and ubiquitous computing, of IoT and personal devices, user-centric solutions will be the paradigm for most of the future applications.

The notion of Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) refers to inter-connected pieces of avionics equipment supported by a wired technology, with stringent reliability and safety requirements. If the inter-connecting wires are physically secured so that a malicious user cannot access them directly, then this enforces (at least partially) the security of...

Avionics networks rely on a set of stringent reliability and safety requirements. In existing deployments, these networks are based on a wired technology, which supports these requirements. Furthermore, this technology simplifies the security management of the network since certain assumptions can be safely made, including the inability of an attac...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) fleets are becoming more apparent in both military and civilian applications. However security of these systems still remains unsatisfactory if a strong adversary model with a high attack potential (i.e. the adversary has capabilities and knowledge to capture a UAV, to perform side-channel or fault injection or other...

Trust has various instantiations: some rely on real-world relationships between entities, while others depend on robust hardware and software technologies to establish it post-deployment. In this paper, we focus on the latter, analyse their evolution in previous years, and their scope in the near future. The evolution of such technologies has invol...

Smart cards, in their traditional deployment architecture referred to as the Issuer Centric Smart Card Ownership Model (ICOM), have a restricted application lifecycle. In this model, an application is installed onto a smart card by the relevant card issuer. In most cases, the card issuer is also the centralised controlling authority for different l...

Multi-application smart card technology has gained momentum due to the Near Field Communication (NFC) and smart phone revolution. Enabling multiple applications from different application providers on a single smart card is not a new concept. Multi-application smart cards have been around since the late 1990s; however, uptake was severely limited....

Near Field Communication (NFC) enables a mobile phone to emulate a contactless smart card. This has rein-vigorated the multiapplication smart card initiative.
