Abstract
A Security Alerting System is provided with dynamic buffer size adaptation. An alert message from a Security Alerting System is transmitted by obtaining the alert message from the Security Alerting System; authenticating the alert message using a secret key known by a server; storing the authenticated alert message in a buffer; transmitting the buffer to the server; and detecting a truncation attack based on generating different cryptographic keys for protection of inserted messages and transmitted buffers, wherein the cryptographic keys for protection of inserted messages are generated in a forward-secure manner in a same order that the messages are inserted in the buffer and wherein the cryptographic keys for protection of transmitted buffers are generated in a forward-secure manner in a same order that the buffers are transmitted over a network.
