Reconsidering Attacker Models in Ad-hoc Networks - SPW 2016

Authors: Radim Ostadal, Petr Svenda, Vaclav Matyas

Abstract: We review the most important secrecy amplification protocols, which are especially suitable for ad-hoc networks of devices with limited resources, providing additional resistance against various attacks on used cryptographic keys without necessity for asymmetric cryptography. We discuss and evaluate different designs as well as approaches to create new protocols. A special focus is given to suitability of these protocols with respect to different underlying key distribution schemes and also to open research questions.
