Proxy Signatures Secure Against Proxy Key Exposure [PDF]

, 2008
We provide an enhanced security model for proxy signatures that captures a more realistic set of attacks than previous models of Boldyreva et al. and of Malkin et al.. Our model is motivated by concrete attacks on existing schemes in scenarios in which proxy signatures are likely to be used. We provide a generic construction for proxy signatures secure

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
