NYU WIRELESS Professor Justin Cappos and his research group have devised a new scheme called PolyPassHash for storing password hash data so that an attacker cannot individually crack passwords. Instead of a password hash being stored directly in the database, the information is used to encode a share in a Shamir Secret Store, a form of secret sharing, where a …
NYU WIRELESS Ph.D. students Russell Ford and George MacCartney have demonstrated the center’s first LTE-like transmissions at millimeter wave frequencies. Millimeter wave (mmW) bands between 30 and 300 GHz are a new frontier for wireless communications that offer the possibilities of orders of magnitude more spectrum than current cellular and WiFi allocations. These bands have been …
