Abstract:

Ensuring the security and privacy of embedded systems, Internet-of-Things at large, has become one of the most important challenges in computing today.

  Low-end embedded wireless devices are deployed in an increasing number and variety of applications. This multitude of devices and information systems are becoming integrated into the daily life of consumers, businesses, governments, and the military. This integration of web-based and mobile applications, and multi-mode communication between people and automated devices has the potential to bring tremendous benefits in efficiency and functionality, but also carries with it tremendous risks in security and privacy. In this talk, I will start by introducing the current status on the design of lightweight cryptography for IoT and follow by introducing two lightweight cryptographic primitives, Simeck and Warbler.

Speaker: Guang Gong, 加拿大滑铁卢大学Professor, Ph.D, IEEE Fellow
