We consider the authentication of digital streams over a lossy network. The overall approach
taken is graph-based, as this yields simple methods for controlling overhead, delay, and the …

In a broadcast encryption scheme, digital content is encrypted to ensure that only privileged
users can recover the content from the encrypted broadcast. Key material is usually held in a …

With the increasing number of emerging robust networks, the challenges to design new
security protocols and techniques are never ending. With the enlargement of 5G paradigm …

In many applications for content distribution, broadcast channels are used to transmit
information from a distribution center to a large set of users. Broadcast encryption schemes …

Trusted collaborative computing (TCC) is a new research and application paradigm. Two
important challenges in such a context are represented by secure information transmission …
