Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.

Abstract (eng): Secure storage of personal authentication credentials is a long standing problem in computer security.
Authentication credentials that are managed by software are vulnerable to many attacks by hackers and malwares, and the existing approaches to their secure storage and use fall short of providing an appropriate solution to these problems.
User-memorizable passwords, on the other hand, suffer from poor usability, have low entropy and are vulnerable to human errors.
By contrast, dedicated hardware authentication tokens provide better security, but they are costly to produce and distribute and also suffer from usability issues.

General purpose secure hardware, like TPM and M-Shield, have recently become available in many personal electronic devices, such as PDAs and mobile phones.
These platforms provide a strongly isolated secure execution environment and enable the deployment of new hardware-based credential platforms such as Nokia On-board Credentials.
This thesis describes how to implement a one-time password solution using On-board Credentials and also how to extend the On-board Credentials to support remote credential management.
