Larry Shi Computer Science Department Graduate Research Mini Talk
My Research When people ask my research Basic research is what I am doing when I don’t know what I am doing.
My research Secure systems below OS level Identity management for mobile devices Assistive technologies using wearable devices
Hardware and physical security
Yes. We go to defcon.
Layered view of security System Firmware Circuit Transistors Physical
Usability and Security No keyboard Small screen Touch based interface Change password frequently Use password with strong entropy No automatically sign in on boot-up Instant access Interaction speed No "remember me" Avoid same pw for different sites Usability often wins this battle in smartphones (It is economy!!!)
Smudge Attack Applied fingerprint powder
Password Doesn’t Solve the Problem 4.7% of users have the password password; 8.5% have the passwords password or ; 9.8% have the passwords password, or ; 14% have a password from the top 10 passwords 40% have a password from the top 100 passwords 79% have a password from the top 500 passwords 91% have a password from the top 1000 passwords
