Book Security in Computing Systems

Download or read book Security in Computing Systems written by Joachim Biskup and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-14 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph on Security in Computing Systems: Challenges, Approaches and Solutions aims at introducing, surveying and assessing the fundamentals of se- rity with respect to computing. Here, “computing” refers to all activities which individuals or groups directly or indirectly perform by means of computing s- tems, i. e. , by means of computers and networks of them built on telecommuni- tion. We all are such individuals, whether enthusiastic or just bowed to the inevitable. So, as part of the ‘‘information society’’, we are challenged to maintain our values, to pursue our goals and to enforce our interests, by consciously desi- ing a ‘‘global information infrastructure’’ on a large scale as well as by approp- ately configuring our personal computers on a small scale. As a result, we hope to achieve secure computing: Roughly speaking, computer-assisted activities of in- viduals and computer-mediated cooperation between individuals should happen as required by each party involved, and nothing else which might be harmful to any party should occur. The notion of security circumscribes many aspects, ranging from human qua- ties to technical enforcement. First of all, in considering the explicit security requirements of users, administrators and other persons concerned, we hope that usually all persons will follow the stated rules, but we also have to face the pos- bility that some persons might deviate from the wanted behavior, whether ac- dently or maliciously.

Book Secure AI Onboarding Framework

Download or read book Secure AI Onboarding Framework written by Michael Bergman and published by Michael Bergman. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AI Onboarding is the process of fine-tuning generic pre-trained AI models using the transfer learning process and the organisation's proprietary data, such as intellectual property (IP), customer data, and other domain-specific datasets. This fine-tuning transforms a generic AI model into a bespoke business tool that understands organisation-specific terminology, makes decisions in line with internal policies and strategies, and provides insights that are directly relevant to the organisation's goals and challenges. Standing in the way of this powerful transformation is the AI onboarding challenge of protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of proprietary data as it is collected, stored, processed and used in fine-tuning. The Secure AI Onboarding Framework is designed to address this challenge by supporting the “Risk Identification” and “Risk treatment” phases of ISO/IEC 27005". It decomposes authoritative resources including the AI Act, OWASP, NIST CSF 2.0, and AI RMF into four critical components, namely Risks, Security Controls, Assessment Questions and Control Implementation Guidance. These components help organisations first, to identify the risks relevant to their AI system and proprietary data, second, define an AI system statement of applicable controls to treat the risks. Thirdly, assess the implementation status of those controls to identify gaps in their readiness to onboard the AI system, and finally, they provide control implementation guidance to facilitate the correct control implementation. Ultimately minimising the security risks related to onboarding AI systems and securely integrating them into their business teams and processes.

Book Operating System Security

Download or read book Operating System Security written by Trent Jaeger and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operating systems provide the fundamental mechanisms for securing computer processing. Since the 1960s, operating systems designers have explored how to build "secure" operating systems - operating systems whose mechanisms protect the system against a motivated adversary. Recently, the importance of ensuring such security has become a mainstream issue for all operating systems. In this book, we examine past research that outlines the requirements for a secure operating system and research that implements example systems that aim for such requirements. For system designs that aimed to satisfy these requirements, we see that the complexity of software systems often results in implementation challenges that we are still exploring to this day. However, if a system design does not aim for achieving the secure operating system requirements, then its security features fail to protect the system in a myriad of ways. We also study systems that have been retrofit with secure operating system features after an initial deployment. In all cases, the conflict between function on one hand and security on the other leads to difficult choices and the potential for unwise compromises. From this book, we hope that systems designers and implementors will learn the requirements for operating systems that effectively enforce security and will better understand how to manage the balance between function and security. Table of Contents: Introduction / Access Control Fundamentals / Multics / Security in Ordinary Operating Systems / Verifiable Security Goals / Security Kernels / Securing Commercial Operating Systems / Case Study: Solaris Trusted Extensions / Case Study: Building a Secure Operating System for Linux / Secure Capability Systems / Secure Virtual Machine Systems / System Assurance

Book Advanced Information Systems Engineering

Download or read book Advanced Information Systems Engineering written by Benkt Wangler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-29 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CAiSE 2000 was the 12th in the series of International Conferences on Advanced Information Systems Engineering. In the year 2000 the conference returned to Stockholm where it was organized the very first time. Since that year, 1989, the CAiSE conferences have developed into an important forum for the presentation and exchange of research results and practical experiences within the field of Information Systems Engineering. The objective of the CAiSE conference series is to bring together researchers and practitioners in the field of information systems engineering to meet annually in order to discuss evolving research issues and applications in this field. The CAiSE conference series also aims to provide an opportunity for young scientists to establish relationships with senior scientists in their areas of interest. Stockholm is an important center of research and development for some of the leading IT and communications companies in Europe and indeed, in the world. In tune with this environment, a major theme of CAiSE 2000 was "information systems and services in a digitized world". This theme reflects the vast improvements in communication technology, including the increasing use of Internet and WWW, that has taken place over the last years, and that has led to better communication and easier information access in general. In addition, this development has initiated changes in the way organizations cooperate and trade.
