Summary: This paper discusses the trust issues of the traditional public key infrastructure (PKI) for web services and the potential of blockchain technology to solve these issues. However, there are still critical problems in existing blockchain-based solutions, including domain name preemption attacks and scalability issues. To address these problems, a secure and scalable blockchain-based PKI solution called BPKI is proposed, which introduces auditors to prevent domain name preemption attacks and utilizes a delegated PBFT consensus algorithm and a double blockchain structure to improve scalability. The security of BPKI is theoretically proved and simulation experiments demonstrate its superiority over existing blockchain-based PKI solutions in scalability.

Summary: This paper proposes a proven secure authenticated key agreement (AKA) scheme for securing V2V and V2I communications in VANETs. The scheme consists of a three-party authentication process and a key agreement process, which includes a tree-based key agreement algorithm. Formal security proof and security analysis demonstrate that the proposed scheme satisfies the necessary security requirements in VANETs.

Summary: This paper uses IoT as an example to illustrate the need for eliminating the single point of trust in a CA-based private PKI. It proposes a distributed public key certificate-issuing infrastructure that addresses the limitations caused by the generation of signing keys. Lastly, it suggests a method for all certificate issuers to overcome these limitations.

Summary: This article introduces the two-way communication of the Internet of Energy to address the security, efficiency, and reliability in energy reform. A mutual authenticated key agreement framework is proposed in the vehicle-grid system using elliptic curve cryptography and hash function to maintain secure communication with reliable computation and communication costs. The proposed protocol is shown to be secure through formal and informal methods, and is more efficient in terms of computation and communication costs compared to related protocols in the same environment.

Summary: The integration of information technologies into the current power grid has raised significant security concerns for the advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). Scholars have presented key agreement schemes for secure communication in the AMI, but found that efficiency could be improved. Thus, they propose a novel security scheme utilizing Chebyshev chaotic maps to enhance security and reduce computational overhead.

Summary: Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) is being widely adopted as a replacement for voice-based Air Traffic Control (ATC) communications worldwide. However, it faces serious security challenges, including eavesdropping and impersonation attacks. To address these issues, we propose a new security model called AKAASH, which provides mutual authentication, key establishment, and a secure handover approach for the CPDLC-enabled aviation communication network.

Summary: Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a widely accepted cryptography protocol for secure communication, relying on the reliability of third-party Certificate Authorities (CAs). This paper proposes a decentralized PKI framework called ProofChain, leveraging blockchain technology to provide trust among a decentralized group of CAs. ProofChain is compatible with existing PKI standards and has been evaluated against popular security standards and PKI adversarial attacks.

Summary: This paper presents a systematic literature review of the significant predictors of digital educational games (DEG) acceptance among students. The review finds that many previous studies adopted the technology acceptance model (TAM) to evaluate students' intention in using digital games for learning, and constructs such as perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, enjoyment, attitude, satisfaction, and social influence were repeatedly shown to have a significant influence on intention.
