  • An automated web crawl methodology to analyze the online privacy landscape

    Creator:
    Sarkar, Chandan
    Abstract:
    Protecting end-users privacy and building trust are the two most important factors needed to support the growth of ecommerce. The increased dependence on the Internet for a wide variety of daily transactions causes a corresponding loss in privacy for many users, as virtually all websites collect data from users directly...

  • Data processing for anomaly detection in web-based applications

    Creator:
    Gaarudapuram Sriraghavan, Rajagopal
    Abstract:
    Web applications are popular attack targets. Misuse detection systems use signature databases to detect known attacks. However, it is difficult to keep the database up to date with the rate of discovery of vulnerabilities. They also cannot detect zero-day attacks. By contrast, anomaly detection systems learn the normal behavior of...

  • A methodology for safeguards evaluation and its application to mixed oxide fuel fabrication

    Creator:
    Azarfar, Mohammad Ali
    Abstract:
    This study focuses on the development of a methodology to evaluate safeguardability of various processes in the nuclear fuel cycle. National and international implementation of safeguards systems has been investigated. It was concluded that proliferation is purely a political question that, hopefully, can be prevented by international norms and diplomacy;...

  • Efficient wireless security protocols based on elliptic curve cryptography

    Creator:
    Aydos, Murat
    Abstract:
    In recent years, the elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) have received attention due to their increased security with smaller key size which brings the advantage of less storage area and less bandwidth. Elliptic curve cryptography provides a methodology for obtaining high-speed, efficient, and scalable implementations of network security protocols. In addition...

  • Location Privacy Preservation for Optimal Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks

    Creator:
    Grissa, Mohamed
    Abstract:
    Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) enable opportunistic access to the licensed channel resources by allowing unlicensed users to exploit vacant channel opportunities. One effective technique through which unlicensed users, often referred to as Secondary Users (SUs), acquire whether a channel is vacant is cooperative spectrum sensing. Despite its effectiveness in enabling...

  • Advances in side-channel cryptanalysis : microarchitectural attacks

    Creator:
    Aciiçmez, Onur
    Abstract:
    Cryptographic devices leak timing and power consumption information that is easily measurable, radiation of various levels, and more. Such devices also have additional inputs, other than plaintext and keys, like voltage, which can be modified to force the device to produce certain faulty outputs that can be used to reveal...

  • Critical incident response on a small college campus

    Creator:
    Marlette, Danielle M.
    Abstract:
    Campus administrators are partially responsible for how a campus responds to a critical incident and how the students and outside community are impacted. It is important for administrators responding to critical incidents to take an objective look at their plans and preparations to determine if they will truly be effective...

  • Exploring security metrics for electric grid infrastructure leveraging attack graphs

    Creator:
    Patapanchala, Panini Sai
    Abstract:
    Electric grid is a critical cyber-physical infrastructure that serves as lifeline for modern society. With the increasing trend of cyber-attacks, electric grid security has become a significant concern. Electric grid operators are working hard to reduce the risk of these attacks towards the system. Having security metrics for monitoring the...
