- LIP: A Lightweight Interlayer Protocol for Preventing Packet Injection Attacks in Mobile Ad Hoc Network
- Most ad hoc networks do not implement any network access control, leaving these networks vulnerable to packet injection attacks where a malicious node injects packets into the network with the goal of depleting the resources of the nodes relaying the packets. To prevent such attacks, it is necessary to employ...

- Relay Attacks on Bluetooth Authentication and Solutions
- This paper describes relay attacks on Bluetooth authentication protocol. The aim of these attacks is impersonation. The attacker does not need to guess or obtain a common secret known to both victims in order to set up these attacks, merely to relay the information it receives from one victim to...

- Tech Tip: Cross-platform authenticate with OpenLDAP
- OpenLDAP is a robust Lightweight Directory Access Protocol LDAP implementation for Linux that ships with most Linux distributions. LDAP is very similar to Active Directory in that it's a database. However, LDAP is more of a read-only (or write-little) database, which differentiates it...

- EAP-TLS Smartcards, From Dream to Reality
- This paper presents the first implementation of the EAPTLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Layer Security) protocol in smartcards. Tests, performed on two java devices, are discussed and analysed. Results show that TLS processing is slow, because smartcards are not yet optimized for that purpose; however the paper clearly demonstrates that TLS...

- Enabling Active Directory Authentication With ESX Server
- This paper provides information about how to configure ESX Server to use Active Directory for authentication. An identity is authenticated when someone or something proves they are who they claim to be. Anything that can be authenticated, such as users, computers, or services, is called a principal. This paper deals...

- Improving Cross-Domain Authentication Over Wireless Local Area Networks
- As mobile users cross the border of two adjacent domains with on-going sessions, their re-authentication causes a significant impact on inter-domain handoff latency as it requires remote contact with the authentication server across domains, making it difficult to employ current authentication protocols. This paper focuses on the cross-domain authentication over...

- Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): Syntaxes and Matching Rules
- Each attribute stored in a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol LDAP directory, and whose values may be transferred in the LDAP protocol, has a defined syntax, which constrains the structure and format of its values. The comparison semantics for values of a syntax are not part of the syntax definition but...
