Abstract-High tech strategies such as Industry 4.0 and Smart Manufacturing require industrial devices to be connected to the Internet. This movement towards interconnected industrial devices poses significant security risks as confidential data must be transferred and stored using untrustworthy channels and cloud servers. End-to-end private key cryptography is suitable to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of data. However, private key cryptography has some drawbacks such as the so-called key distribution problem. A possible solution, factory installed keys, are untrustworthy as the two partners relying on end-to-end cryptography can not be sure that no other party is in possession of the used keys. To overcome these problems, the Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) principle based on Near Field Communication (NFC) and dedicated secured hardware is presented in this paper.

Abstract. We provide a field study of a smartphone application and server-side software for improving the on-premises restaurant experience. To increase customer engagement, the smartphone client uses Near-Field Communication (NFC) to bootstrap the communication with the server and to localize customers to specific tables. The application further provides a complete end-to-end experience by allowing users to select food items, read micro-reviews of dishes, submit their order, and be alerted when the food is ready. We deployed our prototype system in a cafe-style restaurant in the dining commons of Stanford University and observed that the system was able to successfully streamline and enhance the dining experience for both customers and restaurant staff.

“…This smartcards could be also read using mobile phones allowing further uses of the proposed systems. Other works propose the use of this technology to identify patients in healthcare services implemented in developing countries, where maintaining accurate electronic health records can be a difficult task (Zalzala et al, 2011;Marcus et al, 2009). In the same way QR codes can also be used to retrieve health records or medical information.…”
