ITEE Ph.D confirmation seminar: Oscar Pozzobon, 09.00AM, Tue 28 Oct 2003

Secure location services - Vulnerability analysis and provision of security in location systems

Speaker: Oscar Pozzobon, ITEE

When: 09.00AM, Tuesday 28 Oct 2003

Venue: 78-622

Host: Dr. Kurt Kubik

Abstract:

  This work identifies a number of critical infrastructure
  applications that are reliant on location services from cooperative
  location technologies such as GPS and GSM. It is shown that these
  location technologies can be represented in a general location
  model, such that the model components can be used for vulnerability
  analysis. It is performed a vulnerability analysis on these
  components of GSM and GPS location systems as well as a number of
  augmentations to these systems.  A solution based on this model is
  proposed to trust the location data in satellite navigation systems,
  using public key based digital signatures.
