Due to a competitive environment, this process imposes strong privacy needs, as leaked business secrets can have devastating effects on participating companies. Consequently, related work proposes to protect sensitive input data of companies using secure multi-party computation or homomorphic encryption. However, related work so far does not consider that also the benchmarking algorithm, used in today's applied real-world scenarios to compute all relevant statistics, itself contains significant intellectual property, and thus needs to be protected. Addressing this issue, we present PCB — a practical design for Privacy-preserving Company Benchmarking that utilizes homomorphic encryption and a privacy proxy — which is specifically tailored for realistic real-world applications in which we protect companies' sensitive input data and the valuable algorithms used to compute underlying key performance indicators. We evaluate PCB's performance using synthetic measurements and showcase its applicability alongside an actual company benchmarking performed in the domain of injection molding, covering 48 distinct key performance indicators calculated out of hundreds of different input values. By protecting the privacy of all participants, we enable them to fully profit from the benefits of company benchmarking.}, keywords = {practical encrypted computing; homomorphic encryption; algorithm confidentiality; benchmarking; key performance indicators; industrial application; Internet of Production}, tags = {internet-of-production}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2020/2020-pennekamp-company-benchmarking.pdf}, web_url = {https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/1512}, publisher = {HomomorphicEncryption.org}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 8th Workshop on Encrypted Computing \& Applied Homomorphic Cryptography (WAHC '20), December 15, 2020, Virtual Event}, event_place = {Virtual Event}, event_date = {December 15, 2020}, ISBN = {978-3-00-067798-4}, DOI = {10.25835/0072999}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Pennekamp, Jan and Sapel, Patrick and Fink, Ina Berenice and Wagner, Simon and Reuter, Sebastian and Hopmann, Christian and Wehrle, Klaus and Henze, Martin} } @Inproceedings { 2020_delacadena_trafficsliver, title = {TrafficSliver: Fighting Website Fingerprinting Attacks with Traffic Splitting}, year = {2020}, month = {11}, day = {12}, pages = {1971-1985}, abstract = {Website fingerprinting (WFP) aims to infer information about the content of encrypted and anonymized connections by observing patterns of data flows based on the size and direction of packets. By collecting traffic traces at a malicious Tor entry node — one of the weakest adversaries in the attacker model of Tor — a passive eavesdropper can leverage the captured meta-data to reveal the websites visited by a Tor user. As recently shown, WFP is significantly more effective and realistic than assumed. Concurrently, former WFP defenses are either infeasible for deployment in real-world settings or defend against specific WFP attacks only. To limit the exposure of Tor users to WFP, we propose novel lightweight WFP defenses, TrafficSliver, which successfully counter today’s WFP classifiers with reasonable bandwidth and latency overheads and, thus, make them attractive candidates for adoption in Tor. Through user-controlled splitting of traffic over multiple Tor entry nodes, TrafficSliver limits the data a single entry node can observe and distorts repeatable traffic patterns exploited by WFP attacks. We first propose a network-layer defense, in which we apply the concept of multipathing entirely within the Tor network. We show that our network-layer defense reduces the accuracy from more than 98\% to less than 16\% for all state-of-the-art WFP attacks without adding any artificial delays or dummy traffic. We further suggest an elegant client-side application-layer defense, which is independent of the underlying anonymization network. By sending single HTTP requests for different web objects over distinct Tor entry nodes, our application-layer defense reduces the detection rate of WFP classifiers by almost 50 percentage points. Although it offers lower protection than our network-layer defense, it provides a security boost at the cost of a very low implementation overhead and is fully compatible with today’s Tor network.}, keywords = {Traffic Analysis; Website Fingerprinting; Privacy; Anonymous Communication; Onion Routing; Web Privacy}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2020/2020-delacadena-trafficsliver.pdf}, web_url = {https://github.com/TrafficSliver}, publisher = {ACM}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 27th ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS '20), November 9-13, 2020, Orlando, FL, USA}, event_place = {Virtual Event, USA}, event_date = {November 9-13, 2020}, ISBN = {978-1-4503-7089-9/20/11}, DOI = {10.1145/3372297.3423351}, reviewed = {1}, author = {De la Cadena, Wladimir and Mitseva, Asya and Hiller, Jens and Pennekamp, Jan and Reuter, Sebastian and Filter, Julian and Wehrle, Klaus and Engel, Thomas and Panchenko, Andriy} } @Phdthesis { 2020-rueth-phd-thesis, title = {Measuring the Evolution of the Internet in the Age of Giants}, year = {2020}, month = {11}, web_url = {https://www.shaker.de/de/content/catalogue/index.asp?ISBN=978-3-8440-7660-8}, publisher = {Shaker Verlag}, address = {Shaker Verlag, D{\"u}ren, Germany}, series = {Reports on Communications and Distributed Systems}, edition = {20}, school = {RWTH Aachen University}, type = {Ph.D. Thesis}, ISBN = {978-3-8440-7660-8}, author = {R{\"u}th, Jan} } @Article { 2020-holz-ccr-tls13, title = {Tracking the deployment of TLS 1.3 on the Web: A story of experimentation and centralization}, journal = {ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communications Review (CCR)}, year = {2020}, month = {7}, volume = {50}, number = {3}, pages = {3-15}, note = {Selected for the 'Best of CCR' session at SIGCOMM 2021.}, url = {https://ccronline.sigcomm.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/sigcomm-ccr-paper430-with-open-review.pdf}, publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery}, address = {New York, NY, USA}, DOI = {10.1145/3411740.3411742}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Holz, Ralph and Hiller, Jens and Amann, Johanna and Razaghpanah, Abbas and Jost, Thomas and Vallina-Rodriguez, Narseo and Hohlfeld, Oliver} } @Inproceedings { 2020-schemmel-porse, title = {Symbolic Partial-Order Execution for Testing Multi-Threaded Programs}, year = {2020}, month = {7}, tags = {symbiosys}, url = {https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.06688.pdf}, web_url2 = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.06688}, booktitle = {Computer Aided Verification (CAV 2020)}, event_name = {32nd International Conference on Computer Aided Verification}, DOI = {10.1007/978-3-030-53288-8_18}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Schemmel, Daniel and B{\"u}ning, Julian and Rodr{\'i}guez, C{\'e}sar and Laprell, David and Wehrle, Klaus} } @Inproceedings { 2020-mann-ur-weldseamstudy, title = {Study on weld seam geometry control for connected gas metal arc welding systems}, year = {2020}, month = {6}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2020/2020-mann-weld-seam-geometry-control.pdf}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2020 Internal Conference on Ubiquitous Robots}, event_name = {Internal Conference on Ubiquitous Robots}, event_date = {June 22-26, 2020}, DOI = {10.1109/UR49135.2020.9144839}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Mann, Samuel and Glebke, Ren{\'e} and Kunze, Ike and Scheurenberg, Dominik and Sharma, Rahul and Reisgen, Uwe and Wehrle, Klaus and Abel, Dirk} } @Inproceedings { 2020_roepert_opcua, title = {Assessing the Security of OPC UA Deployments}, year = {2020}, month = {4}, day = {2}, abstract = {To address the increasing security demands of industrial deployments, OPC UA is one of the first industrial protocols explicitly designed with security in mind.

In this work, we present extensions to the popular Metasploit Framework to ease network-based security assessments of OPC UA deployments. To this end, we discuss methods to discover OPC UA servers, test their authentication, obtain their configuration, and check for vulnerabilities.

For this reason, offering frameworks, which are capable of addressing multiple layers of applications on the one hand and providing means of data security and privacy for ubiquitous dataflows on the other hand, is an important step to enable the envisioned advances. In this context, welding production has been introduced from the perspective of interlaced process layers connecting information sources across various entities. Each layer has its own distinct challenges from both a process view and a data perspective. Besides, investigating each layer promises to reveal insight into (currently unknown) process interconnections. This approach has been substantiated by methods for data security and privacy to draw a line between secure handling of data and the need of trustworthy dealing with sensitive data among different parties and therefore partners. In conclusion, the welding production has to develop itself from an accumulation of local and isolated data sources towards a secure industrial collaboration in an Internet of Production.}, note = {Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Advanced Joining Processes (AJP '19)}, keywords = {Welding Production; Industrie 4.0; Internet of Production; Data Security; Data Privacy}, tags = {Internet-of-Production}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2020/2020-mann-welding-layers.pdf}, publisher = {Springer}, event_place = {Ponta Delgada, Azores, Portugal}, event_date = {October 24-25, 2019}, ISBN = {978-981-15-2956-6}, ISSN = {1869-8433}, DOI = {10.1007/978-981-15-2957-3_8}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Mann, Samuel and Pennekamp, Jan and Brockhoff, Tobias and Farhang, Anahita and Pourbafrani, Mahsa and Oster, Lukas and Uysal, Merih Seran and Sharma, Rahul and Reisgen, Uwe and Wehrle, Klaus and van der Aalst, Wil} } @Inproceedings { 2020-kosek-tcp-conformance, title = {MUST, SHOULD, DON'T CARE: TCP Conformance in the Wild}, year = {2020}, month = {3}, day = {30}, tags = {maki}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2020/2020-kosek-tcp-conformance-v2.pdf}, web_url2 = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.05400}, publisher = {Springer}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Passive and Active Measurement Conference (PAM '20)}, event_place = {Eugene, Oregon, USA}, event_name = {Passive and Active Measurement Conference (PAM 2020)}, event_date = {30.03.2020 - 31.03.2020}, language = {en}, DOI = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-44081-7_8}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Kosek, Mike and Bl{\"o}cher, Leo and R{\"u}th, Jan and Zimmermann, Torsten and Hohlfeld, Oliver} } @Article { 2020-wehrle-digitalshadows, title = {Mit ''Digitalen Schatten'' Daten verdichten und darstellen : Der Exzellenzcluster ''Internet der Produktion'' forscht {\"u}ber die Produktionstechnik hinaus}, journal = {Der Profilbereich ''Information \& Communication Technology''}, year = {2020}, ISSN = {0179-079X}, DOI = {10.18154/RWTH-2021-02496}, author = {Jarke, Matthias and van der Aalst, Wil and Brecher, Christian and Brockmann, Matthias and Koren, Istv{\'a}n and Lakemeyer, Gerhard and Rumpe, Bernhard and Schuh, G{\"u}nther and Wehrle, Klaus and Ziefle, Martina} }
