Conference Object Modeling Efficient Multi-Chained Stream Signature Protocol Using Communicating Sequential Processeses(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2010) Koltuksuz, Ahmet; Özkan, Murat; Külahçıoğlu, BurcuCommunicating Sequential Processes (CSP) is a process algebra, designed for modeling and analyzing the behavior of concurrent systems. Several security protocols are modeled with CSP and verified using model-checking or theorem proving techniques successfully. Unlike other authentication protocols modeled using CSP, each of the Efficient Multi-chained Stream Signature (EMSS) protocol messages are linked to the previous messages, forming hash chains, which introduces difficulties for modeling and verification. In this paper; we model the EMSS stream authentication protocol using CSP and verify its authentication properties with model checking, by building an infinite state model of the protocol which is reduced into a finite state model. © 2010 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 7Utilization of Timed Automata as a Verification Tool for Security Protocols(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2010) Koltuksuz, Ahmet; Külahçıoğlu, Burcu; Özkan, MuratTimed Automata is an extension to the automata-theoretic approach for the modeling of real time systems that introduces time into the classical automata. It has become an important research area in both the context of formal languages and modeling and verification of real time systems since it was proposed by Alur and Dill in the early nineties. Timed automata proposes an efficient model checking method for verification real time systems having mature and efficient automatic verification tools. One of the application areas of timed automata is the verification of security protocols which are known to be time sensitive. This study aims to make use of timed automata as a verification tool for security protocols and gives a case study on the initial part of the Neuman- Stubblebine Repeated Authentication Protocol. © 2010 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4Computational Cost Analysis of Elliptic Curve Arithmetic(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2006) Atay, Serap; Koltuksuz, Ahmet; Hışıl, Hüseyin; Eren, ŞabanElliptic curves are proposed for the asymmetrical cryptography by Neal Koblitz and Victor Miller in 1986 separately. Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is utilized by hardware embedded solutions on mobile equipments and smart cards after 2000. Currently, software implementation of ECC faces the computational speed problem. One of the proposed solutions is to do the arithmetic operations on different Euclidean coordinate systems. This paper concentrates on the research of this technique and delineates the performance results of the implementation of the aforementioned technique on the different cryptographic libraries such as CRYMPIX, GMP and MIRACL.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 7Intelligence analysis modeling(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2006) Koltuksuz, Ahmet; Tekir, SelmaIntelligence is the process of supporting the policymakers in making their decisions by providing them with the specific information they need. Intelligence analysis is the effort of extracting the nature of intelligence issue with the policy goal in mind. It is performed by intelligence analysts who form judgments that add value to the collected material. With the increased open source collection capabilities, there has emerged a need for a model of intelligence analysis that covers the basic elements of valuable information: relevancy, accuracy, and timeliness. There exist models such as vector space model of information retrieval which only addresses the relevancy aspect of information and cannot cope with nonlinear document spaces. In this paper, we discuss the requirements of an integrated model of intelligence analysis along with its peculiar characteristics.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Satellite Networks for Key Management(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2007) Koltuksuz, AhmetThe cryptographic key management center is the place where all the cryptographical protocols and related keys are in action. Traditionally the key management centers operate on the ground. However; with the satellites, it is possible to conceive a space based key management center. This paper underlines the pros and cons of having a satellite networks key management center.
