“…A TEE is a hardware environment with a secure operating system that is isolated and completely separated from the mobile platform. The concept behind a TEE implementation is to provide an independent execution environment that runs alongside the operating system [27]. This environment provides certain security services to the native operation system [28].…”

Over the past decade, software development has evolved from a rigid, linear process to a highly automated and flexible one, thanks to the emergence of continuous integration and delivery environments. Nowadays, more and more development teams rely on such environments to build their complex projects, as the advantages they offer are numerous. On the security side, however, most environments seem to focus on authentication, neglecting other critical aspects, such as the integrity of the source code and the compiled binaries. To ensure the soundness of a software project, its source code must be secured from malicious modifications. Yet, no method can accurately verify that the integrity of a project’s source code has not been breached. This paper presents P2ISE, a novel integrity-preserving tool that provides strong security assertions for developers against attackers. At the heart of P2ISE lies the TPM trusted computing technology, which is leveraged to ensure integrity preservation. We have implemented the P2ISE and quantitatively assessed its performance and efficiency.

“…However, tenants seem to expect unrestricted consumption leading to excessive charges (e.g., charging of electric vehicles by tenants) [3][4][5]. In such scenarios, the adoption of smart grid effectively can solve this issue by billing the actual consumer instead of the landlord [6]. Smart meters can be programmed to charge the tenant through routing consumption measurements from the landlord's utility to the tenant's utility.…”

Due to its flexibility in terms of charging and billing, the smart grid is an enabler of many innovative energy consumption scenarios. One such example is when a landlord rents their property for a specific period to tenants. Then the electricity bill could be redirected from the landlord’s utility to the tenant’s utility. This novel scenario of the smart grid ecosystem, defined in this paper as Grid-to-Go (G2Go), promotes a green economy and can drive rent reductions. However, it also creates critical privacy issues, since utilities may be able to track the tenant’s activities. This paper presents P4G2Go, a novel privacy-preserving scheme that provides strong security and privacy assertions for roaming consumers against honest but curious entities of the smart grid. At the heart of P4G2Go lies the Idemix cryptographic protocol suite, which utilizes anonymous credentials and provides unlinkability of the consumer activities. Our scheme is complemented by the MASKER protocol, used to protect the consumption readings, and the FIDO2 protocol for strong and passwordless authentication. We have implemented the main components of P4G2Go, to quantitatively assess its performance. Finally, we reason about its security and privacy properties, proving that P4G2Go achieves to fulfill the relevant objectives.
