Abstract:
A great deal of work has been applied to large-scale network security.
This talk starts by discussing good software development: refitting and
refactoring of network systems to constrained wireless devices and some
possible unintended security consequences. Next, some of Claude
Shannon's work on network security is applied to wireless security. In
particular, a key result of Shannon is generalized and explored.
This leads to the second thrust of this talk. New potential attacks on
wireless networks of constrained devices.
 
Some of this is joint work with D. Cordes, O. Gavrylyako, J. Jones, A.
Parrish, and R. Smith
