Secure Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is becoming increasingly important with the ever-growing number of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices in our daily life. To achieve secure D2D communication, the key agreement between different IoT devices without any prior knowledge is becoming desirable. Although various approaches have been proposed in the literature, they suffer from a number of limitations, such as low key generation rate and short pairing distance. In this paper, we present InaudibleKey, an inaudible acoustic signal-based key generation protocol for mobile devices. Based on acoustic channel reciprocity, InaudibleKey exploits the acoustic channel frequency response of two legitimate devices as a common secret to generating keys. InaudibleKey employs several novel technologies to significantly improve its performance. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate the proposed system in different real environments. Compared to state-of-the-art works, InaudibleKey improves key generation rate by 3-145 times, extends pairing distance by 3.2-44 times, and reduces information reconciliation counts by 2.5-16 times. Security analysis demonstrates that InaudibleKey is resilient to a number of malicious attacks. We also implement InaudibleKey on modern smartphones and resource-limited IoT devices. Results show that it is energy-efficient and can run on both powerful and resource-limited IoT devices without incurring excessive resource consumption.

With the advent of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), vehicular networks and cyber-physical systems, the need for real-time data processing and analysis has emerged as an essential pre-requite for customers satisfaction. In this direction, Mobile Edge Com puting (MEC) provides seamless services with reduced latency, enhanced mobility, and improved location awareness. Since MEC has evolved from Cloud Computing, it inherited numerous security and privacy issues from the latter. Further, decentralized architectures and diversified deployment environments used in MEC platforms also aggravate the problem; causing great concerns for the research fraternity. Thus, in this paper, we propose an efficient and lightweight mutual authentication protocol for MEC environments; based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), one-way hash functions and concatenation operations. The designed protocol also leverages the advantages of discrete logarithm problems, computational Diffie-Hellman, random numbers and time-stamps to resist various attacks namely-impersonation attacks, replay attacks, man-in-the-middle attacks, etc. The paper also presents a comparative assessment of the proposed scheme relative to the current state-of-the-art schemes. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed scheme incurs relatively less communication and computational overheads, and is appropriate to be adopted in resource constraint MEC environments.
MPTCP is a new transport protocol that enables mobile devices to use multiple physical paths simultaneously through several network interfaces, such as WiFi and Cellular. However, wireless path capacities change frequently in the mobile environments, causing challenges for path selection. For example, WiFi associated paths often become poor as devices walk away, since WiFi has intermittent connectivity caused by the short signal coverage and stochastic interference. MPTCPs native decision based on hysteretic TCP-layer estimation will miss the real switching point of wireless quality, which may cumulate packets on the broken path and causes serious packets reinjection. Through analyzing a unique dataset in the wild, we quantitatively study the impact of MAC-layer factors on the aggregated performance of MPTCP. We then propose a decision tree approach for cross-layer path selection that decides which path to carry the incoming packets dynamically according to the prior learned schemes. A prototype of the path selection system named SmartPS, which proactively probes the wireless environments, is realized and deployed in Linux and Android. Evaluation results demonstrate that our SmartPS can efficiently utilize the faster path, with goodput improvements of up to 29%.
Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN) is a developing technology with constraints in energy consumption, coverage radius, communication reliability. Also, communications between nodes contain very sensitive personal information in which sometimes due t o the presence of hostile environments, there are a wide range of security risks. As such, designing authenticated key agreement (AKA) protocols is an important challenge in these networks. Recently, Li et al. proposed a lightweight scheme using the hash and XOR functions which is much more efficient compared with similar schemes based on elliptic curve. However, the investigations revealed that the claim concerning the unlinkability between the sessions of a sensor node is NOT true. The present paper considers the security issues of the scheme proposed by Li et al. and some of its new extensions in order to propose a new AKA scheme with anonymity and unlinkability of the sensor node sessions. The results of theoretical analysis compared with similar schemes indicate that the proposed scheme reduces average energy consumption and average computation time by 61 percent while reduces the average communication cost by 41 percent. Further, it has been shown by formal and informal analysis that, Besides the two anonymity and unlinkability features, the other main features of the security in the proposed scheme are comparable and similar to the recent similar schemes.
Utilizing the advantage of quantum entanglement swapping, a multi-party quantum key agreement protocol with authentication is proposed. In this protocol, a semi-trusted third party is introduced, who prepares Bell states, and sends one particle to mu ltiple participants respectively. After that the participants can share a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state by entanglement swapping. Finally, these participants measure the particles in their hands and obtain an agreement key. Here, classical hash function and Hadamard operation are utilized to authenticate the identity of participants. The correlations of GHZ states ensure the security of the proposed protocol. To illustrated it detailly, the security of this protocol against common attacks is analyzed, which shows that the proposed protocol is secure in theory.

Multicasting is effective when its group members are sparse and the speed is low. On the other hand, broadcasting is effective when the group members dense and the speed are high. Since mobile ad hoc networks are highly dynamic in nature, either of t he above two strategies can be adopted at different scenarios. In this paper, we propose an ant agent based adaptive, multicast protocol that exploits group members desire to simplify multicast routing and invoke broadcast operations in appropriate localized regimes. By reducing the number of group members that participate in the construction of the multicast structure and by providing robustness to mobility by performing broadcasts in densely clustered local regions, the proposed protocol achieves packet delivery statistics that are comparable to that with a pure multicast protocol but with significantly lower overheads. By our simulation results, we show that our proposed protocol achieves increased Packet Delivery Fraction (PDF) with reduced overhead and routing load.
