MANET is used by many researchers to provide security and to implement protocols for secure routing. Privacy and security are important in applications like Military and Law-Enforcement MANETs. Communication in MANET is more susceptible due to broadcasting nature of radio transmission. It is necessary to provide security against inside and outside adversaries. There are many existing schemes which provide privacy preserving routing. These schemes do not offer complete unlink ability and unobservability. We propose unobservable secure routing protocol where data packets and control packets are completely protected. It achieves content unobservability by applying group signature and ID-based encryption. This protocol works in two stages anonymous key establishment and unobservable route discovery. We implement unobservable secure routing protocol with security algorithms RSA, AES, DES with AODV in NS-2 and compare it with AODV. Our protocol is more efficient than existing schemes. © 2015 IEEE.

Emulating cryptographic operations for secure routing in Ad-hoc Network

While mobile services are maturing in the Mobile Computing world, location services have started mushrooming in every day work which are making good impact for humans as well as all moving resources. With this development, serious threat of location privacy has emerged and becoming inevitable part of this kind of services. Present systems do not have concrete answer of location privacy because of absence of robust technology, poor governance and business interest. Modern ways need to be practiced, including Cryptography, Collaborative, Distributed and Internationally legal governance protocols. There are dozens of cloaking methods such as dummy users, K-Anonymity, false location queries, dummy queries, cryptography protocols, etc., however no commercial LBS systems guarantees the location privacy. In this paper, we have studied drawbacks of existing techniques. We have proposed either modification or novel methods to protect location privacy. Moreover we have suggested to analyse privacy strength, energy consumption, and accuracy of services, overhead cost such as computing and communication cost. © 2014 IEEE.

Emerging trends of location privacy techniques in location aided applications

Private Branch Exchange system is the hardware that is used to controls the phone lines and exchanges calls between the internal phone extensions within a private network. The major benefit of the Private Branch Exchange system is the availability of the variety of features and it uses standard voice over internet protocols to work over the internet. There are more companies providing Private Branch Exchange system in the current market. Testing a software product is a necessary to deliver a good product before it comes to the market. Test automation is used to reduce spending more time in testing rather than focusing on other things. We have developed a new automated framework to test the Private Branch Exchange system features involving Session Initiation Protocol stations and provide multiple ready-to-use suites of several hundreds of test cases to reduce the developer's time spend in testing. we have focused on not only generating test cases for test automation but also to reduce a test execution time of test cases by running multiple execution of test cases at a time and providing rich user interface for the developer to test the Private Branch Exchange features. We are using proprietary tool to test the features of Private Branch Exchange system by verifying the talk path between two endpoints and providing scalability so that they can start to execute more than one feature at a time. We implemented this framework and got an improved performance by reducing execution time of overall testing. © 2014 IEEE.

The location security in current location-based services (LBS) meets threat where mobile users have to report their actual location knowledge to the LBS provider in order to get their desired POI, (Points of Interests). We consider location privacy techniques that work using obfuscation operators and provide different information services using different cloaking techniques without any trusted components other than the client's mobile device. The techniques are then covered according to the random category. It blurs the accurate user location (i.e., a point with coordinates) and replaces it with a well-shaped cloaked region (e.g. Circle, Rectangle, Pentagon etc.). We have recommended the technique where instead of exchanging cloaking data with peers, user queries directly to LBS. We have presented techniques where first technique which provides different privacy levels using obfuscation operators. The second technique for query processing generates the region of different shapes. Third demonstrates regional cloaking and two more new ideas are presented. We have shown effectiveness and performance of these techniques. © 2014 IEEE.

Myself: Local perturbation for location privacy in LBS applications

With the recent advancement in the mobile technology, devices are equipped with location computing facility. Devices are mounted with real entities such as human, animals, vehicles etc. In Location Based Services, user carrying device seeks service and hence user's location information is compromised and can be misused by service providers. In this paper, we present the review and propose the enhanced mechanisms to protect the location privacy of mobile users. It necessary to observe that to get quality of service, user needs to send precise location, while to protect privacy, we need to have balanced view regarding revealing location to service provider. Quality of service, Performance, Energy consumption, Network bandwidth consumption and Privacy strength are the parameters of importance which should be the objectives of research while providing the location based services. © 2013 IEEE.

Survey and review of location privacy techniques in location based services

Mobile Technology is growing rapidly. Usages of smart phones are increased for critical financial applications. This leads to many security issues as well. Implementing security features into such critical financial applications can minimize the transaction risk .Traditionally RSA, DH public key cryptography algorithms has been used. However ECC has proven results for smaller key size requirement which is more useful for resource constrained devices that take less memory, less bandwidth and less power consumption. In our paper, we have proved ECC's strength with respect to RSA. This paper contributes on implementation of ECC over GF (2m) for smart phone OS which is used in mobile devices. Our experiment shows that ECC takes less computation time efforts than RSA when key size becomes greater than 512 bits which is advantageous on mobile or smart phones. In our implementation memory consumption is reduced as we are computing elliptic curve points dynamically when we need it and cipher text size is also reduced. We are avoiding cryptanalytic attack by eliminating same cipher text pattern generation. An experiment study is conducted on android OS which is one of the popular smart phone OS to show the effectiveness of proposed algorithm and also addressed cryptanalytic attack. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
