Content Addressed Peer-to-Peer File System for the Web with Blockchain-based Metadata Integrity
Chaitanya Rahalkar, Dhaval Gujar
IEEE International Conference on Advances in Computing, Communication and Control, December 2019
PDF | Slides
We propose a new content addressed peer-to-peer file system as a replacement to the bloated HTTP protocol assisted with the robust preservation properties of Blockchain.
Using Generative Adversarial Networks for Secure Pseudorandom Number Generation
Rajvardhan Oak, Chaitanya Rahalkar, Dhaval Gujar
ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security, November 2019
PDF
We propose a new way of generating pseudorandom numbers using generative adversarial networks. We demonstrate that a GAN can act as a Cryptographically Secure Pseudorandom Number Generator (CPRNG) passing 97% of National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) tests.
A Secure Password Manager
Chaitanya Rahalkar, Dhaval Gujar
International Journal of Computer Applications, September 2019
PDF
We propose an offline password manager, that does not store passwords anywhere. These passwords are not even stored on the device of the user, but are generated on-the-fly using the algorithm, by providing the master password.
