Security Technologies

The security technologies group provides consulting services to groups within the company as well as in other companies, both in the U.S. and in Japan. Our core expertise is in the application of cryptographic and security protocols to Wireless and IP networks.

A sampling of our most recent projects is given below:

• Design of a fast roaming authentication mechanism for
  a Voice-over-UWB application
• Design of a lightweight key exchange protocol for use
  in next-generation IP networks
• Strategy for security categorization and controls of
  enterprise information
• Specification of an authentication protocol for use in
  3G networks
• Model for quantitative risk assessment in a security
  monitoring system
• Design of a strong cryptographic pseudo random
  number generator
• Method for securing binding updates in Mobile IP networks

We also conduct applied research in the areas of ad hoc networks, cryptography, electronic commerce, and sensor networks. We actively collaborate with researchers in the local universities and occasionally host interns and researchers on sabbaticals.
