  • Low-Cost Mitigation Against Cold Boot Attacks for an Authentication Token

    Low-Cost Mitigation Against Cold Boot Attacks for an Authentication Token

    Low-cost Mitigation against Cold Boot Attacks for an Authentication Token Ian Goldberg?1, Graeme Jenkinson2, and Frank Stajano2 1 University of Waterloo (Canada) 2 University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) Abstract. Hardware tokens for user authentication need a secure and usable mechanism to lock them when not in use. The Pico academic project proposes an authentication token unlocked by the proximity of simpler wearable devices that provide shares of the token’s master key. This method, however, is vulnera- ble to a cold boot attack: an adversary who captures a running Pico could extract the master key from its RAM and steal all of the user’s credentials. We present a cryptographic countermeasure—bivariate secret sharing—that protects all the credentials except the one in use at that time, even if the token is captured while it is on. Remarkably, our key storage costs for the wearables that supply the cryp- tographic shares are very modest (256 bits) and remain constant even if the token holds thousands of credentials. Although bivariate secret sharing has been used before in slightly different ways, our scheme is leaner and more efficient and achieves a new property—cold boot protection. We validated the efficacy of our design by implementing it on a commercial Bluetooth Low Energy development board and measuring its latency and energy consumption. For reasonable choices of latency and security parameters, a standard CR2032 button-cell battery can power our prototype for 5–7 months, and we demonstrate a simple enhancement that could make the same battery last for over 9 months.

  • Exterior Finishes

    Exterior Finishes

    EXTERIOR FINISHES 14.0 EXTERIOR FINISHES 14.1 GENERAL NUDURA’s Integrated Building Technology can be covered with a multitude of different finishes. Exterior finishes must be installed over the EPS in accordance with the building code and local requirements. The exterior finish will protect the EPS from the elements and nature. The contractor must follow the finishes installation guidelines for installation onto the EPS forms. MOST IMPORTANT: All exterior finishes requiring mechanical attachment will require the use of SCREWS in place of any nails that are specified in the manufacturer’s installation instructions. As noted previously in Chapter 9, an area of finishing that needs special attention will be around the openings and the proper installation of rain screens, drip cap flashings, through-wall flashings, sill pans, and air barrier membranes, that prevent moisture from entering in behind the opening and ultimately gaining access to the inside of the building. The exterior finish will determine the type, and method, of rain screen or drip edge membrane. Stucco applications will require the base coat to be wrapped into the window flange before finishing trims are attached. If the finish happens to be a material that is not directly applied to the EPS then light gauge metal kerfed into the EPS along with the NUDURA Peel and Stick Membrane will prevent any moisture from getting to the inside of the wall. These requirements are covered in more complete detail under Chapter 9. However, the contractor should be sure to cross check this data for completion of these details FIGURE 14.01 before ANY exterior finish material is applied.
