Reflexions al voltant de la resiliencia. Una conversa amb Stefan Vanistendael

E Darre rament, e l concepte resili cncia s' ha fet molt present en e ls discursos tècnics del camp soc ial. Ara bé, e ls usos que se li estan donant són múlti ples i en alguns casos molt diferenciats entre ells. Per cl arificar e l sentit ini c ial de l concepte hem mantingut una: conversa amb el professor Stefan VanistendaeL una de les persones que més ha desenvolupat aquest concepte i explorat les seves aplicacions.

Influencia del contenido de oxigeno sobre la ductilidad del hierro de granos ultra finos obtenido por compactación en caliente

Sabiendo que las propiedades mecánicas de un metal están gobernadas por sumicroestructura y más precisamente por su tamaño de grano, la industria busca desarrollarmateriales con un tamaño de grano nanométrico que tengan comportamientos mecánicosinteresantes: alto limite elástico y ductilidad aceptable.Este proyecto trata de la influencia del oxigeno sobre un material nanoestructurado obtenidopor compactación en caliente de polvo molido de hierro. Con este objetivo, se ha realizadodos polvo de hierro conteniendo cada uno una concentración en oxigeno diferente (0.238 y0.634% másico). Se los han compactado a diferentes temperaturas (575, 600, 625y 650°C).Se ha realizado diferentes pruebas sobre los consolidados: medición de la densidad,dureza, determinación del tamaño de grano, resistencia mecánica y ductilidad medianteensayo de tracción.Las piezas consolidadas con un porcentaje bajo de carbono muestran una buena resistenciacon porcentajes de alargamiento bajos pero suficientes. Para las piezas con altoscontenidos de oxígeno, se ha demostrado que el oxigeno fragiliza el material formandoóxidos que ralentizan el crecimiento de grano a alta temperatura y que dificultan suconsolidación. De esta manera, estas piezas tienen una resistencia teórica mucho mayorpero rompen por rotura frágil.

Efficient self-synchronised blind audio watermarking system based on time domain and FFT amplitude modification

Many audio watermarking schemes divide the audio signal into several blocks such that part of the watermark is embedded into each of them. One of the key issues in these block-oriented watermarking schemes is to preserve the synchronisation, i.e. to recover the exact position of each block in the mark recovery process. In this paper, a novel time domain synchronisation technique is presented together with a new blind watermarking scheme which works in the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT or FFT) domain. The combined scheme provides excellent imperceptibility results whilst achieving robustness against typical attacks. Furthermore, the execution of the scheme is fast enough to be used in real-time applications. The excellent transparency of the embedding algorithm makes it particularly useful for professional applications, such as the embedding of monitoring information in broadcast signals. The scheme is also compared with some recent results of the literature.

JXTAnonym: An anonymity layer for JXTA services messaging

With the evolution of the P2P research eld, new problems, such as those related with information security, have arisen. It is important to provide security mechanisms to P2P systems, since it has already become one of the key issues when evaluating them. However, even though many P2P systems have been adapted to provide a security baseline to their underlying applications, more advanced capabilities are becoming necessary. Speci cally, privacy preservation and anonymity are deemed essential to make the information society sustainable. Unfortunately, sometimes, it may be di cult to attain anonymity unless it is included into the system's initial design. The JXTA open protocols speci cation is a good example of this kind of scenario. This work studies how to provide anonymity to JXTA's architecture in a feasible manner and proposes an extension which allows deployed services to process two-way messaging without disclosing the endpoints'identities to third parties.

Towards secure mobile P2P applications using JXME

Mobile devices have become ubiquitous, allowing the integration of new information from a large range of devices. However, the development of new applications requires a powerful framework which simplifies their construction. JXME is the JXTA implementation for mobile devices using J2ME, its main value being its simplicity when creating peer-to-peer (P2P) applications on limited devices. On that regard, an issue that is becoming veryimportant in the recent times is being able to provide a security baseline to such applications. This paper analyzes the currentstate of security in JXME and proposes a simple security mechanism in order to protect JXME applications against a broad range of vulnerabilities.

Securing dynamic itineraries for mobile agent applications

In this paper we present a novel mechanism for the protection of dynamic itineraries for mobile agent applications. Itineraries that are decided as the agent goes are essential in complex applications based on mobile agents, but no approach has been presented until now to protect them. We have conceived a cryptographic scheme for shielding dynamic itineraries from tampering, impersonation and disclosure. By using trust strategically, our scheme provides a balanced trade-off between flexibility and security. Our protection scheme has been thought always bearing in mind a feasible implementation, and thus facilitates the development of applications that make use of it. An example application based on a real healthcare scenario is also presented to show its operation.

A Security-aware Approach to JXTA-Overlay Primitives

The JXTA-Overlay project is an effort to use JXTA technologyto provide a generic set of functionalities that can be used by developers to deploy P2P applications. Since its design mainly focuses on issues such as scalability or overall performance, it does not take security into account. However, as P2P applications have evolved to fulfill more complex scenarios, security has become a very important aspect to take into account when evaluating a P2P framework. This work proposes a security extension specifically suited to JXTA-Overlay¿s idiosyncrasies, providing an acceptable solution to some of its current shortcomings.

ZigBee/ZigBee PRO security assessment based on compromised cryptographic keys

Sensor networks have many applications in monitoring and controlling of environmental properties such as sound, acceleration, vibration and temperature. Due to limitedresources in computation capability, memory and energy, they are vulnerable to many kinds of attacks. The ZigBee specification based on the 802.15.4 standard, defines a set of layers specifically suited to sensor networks. These layers support secure messaging using symmetric cryptographic. This paper presents two different ways for grabbing the cryptographic key in ZigBee: remote attack and physical attack. It also surveys and categorizes some additional attacks which can be performed on ZigBee networks: eavesdropping, spoofing, replay and DoS attacks at different layers. From this analysis, it is shown that some vulnerabilities still in the existing security schema in ZigBee technology.
