Download or read book Proceedings of the International Workshop on Computational Intelligence in Security for Information Systems CISIS 2008 written by Emilio Corchado and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-10-24 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research scenario in advanced systems for protecting critical infrastructures and for deeply networked information tools highlights a growing link between security issues and the need for intelligent processing abilities in the area of information s- tems. To face the ever-evolving nature of cyber-threats, monitoring systems must have adaptive capabilities for continuous adjustment and timely, effective response to modifications in the environment. Moreover, the risks of improper access pose the need for advanced identification methods, including protocols to enforce comput- security policies and biometry-related technologies for physical authentication. C- putational Intelligence methods offer a wide variety of approaches that can be fruitful in those areas, and can play a crucial role in the adaptive process by their ability to learn empirically and adapt a system’s behaviour accordingly. The International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Security in Inf- mation Systems (CISIS) proposes a meeting ground to the various communities - volved in building intelligent systems for security, namely: information security, data mining, adaptive learning methods and soft computing among others. The main goal is to allow experts and researchers to assess the benefits of learning methods in the data-mining area for information-security applications. The Workshop offers the opportunity to interact with the leading industries actively involved in the critical area of security, and have a picture of the current solutions adopted in practical domains. This volume of Advances in Soft Computing contains accepted papers presented at CISIS’08, which was held in Genova, Italy, on October 23rd–24th, 2008.

Download or read book Towards Hardware Intrinsic Security written by Ahmad-Reza Sadeghi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hardware-intrinsic security is a young field dealing with secure secret key storage. By generating the secret keys from the intrinsic properties of the silicon, e.g., from intrinsic Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs), no permanent secret key storage is required anymore, and the key is only present in the device for a minimal amount of time. The field is extending to hardware-based security primitives and protocols such as block ciphers and stream ciphers entangled with the hardware, thus improving IC security. While at the application level there is a growing interest in hardware security for RFID systems and the necessary accompanying system architectures. This book brings together contributions from researchers and practitioners in academia and industry, an interdisciplinary group with backgrounds in physics, mathematics, cryptography, coding theory and processor theory. It will serve as important background material for students and practitioners, and will stimulate much further research and development.
Download or read book Theoretical Foundations of Homeland Security written by James D. Ramsay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new textbook outlines the main theories and concepts from a variety of disciplines that support homeland security operations, structures and strategies. Following the terrorist attacks of September 11th, "homeland security" (HLS) grew in importance within the U.S. government (and around the world) and matured from a concept discussed among a relatively small cadre of policymakers and strategic thinkers to a broadly discussed issue in Congress and society with a growing academic presence. Yet the ability to discern a theory of homeland security that would support overall security strategy has been more elusive to both scholars and policymakers. This textbook aims to elucidate a grand theory of homeland security by leveraging the theoretical underpinnings of the disciplines that comprise the strategies, operations and structures of the HLS enterprise. In this way, each chapter contributes to a grand theory of homeland security as it explores a different discipline that influences or supports a domain of the homeland security enterprise. These chapters cover intelligence systems, terrorism origins and ideologies, emergency management, environmental and human security, cybersecurity policy, crime and security, global governance, risk management, public health, law and policy, technology, interagency collaboration and the sociology of security. This book will be essential reading for students of Homeland Security and Emergency Response, and recommended reading for students of terrorism, intelligence, cybersecurity, risk management and national security.

Download or read book Security for Cloud Storage Systems written by Kan Yang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloud storage is an important service of cloud computing, which offers service for data owners to host their data in the cloud. This new paradigm of data hosting and data access services introduces two major security concerns. The first is the protection of data integrity. Data owners may not fully trust the cloud server and worry that data stored in the cloud could be corrupted or even removed. The second is data access control. Data owners may worry that some dishonest servers provide data access to users that are not permitted for profit gain and thus they can no longer rely on the servers for access control. To protect the data integrity in the cloud, an efficient and secure dynamic auditing protocol is introduced, which can support dynamic auditing and batch auditing. To ensure the data security in the cloud, two efficient and secure data access control schemes are introduced in this brief: ABAC for Single-authority Systems and DAC-MACS for Multi-authority Systems. While Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-based Encryption (CP-ABE) is a promising technique for access control of encrypted data, the existing schemes cannot be directly applied to data access control for cloud storage systems because of the attribute revocation problem. To solve the attribute revocation problem, new Revocable CP-ABE methods are proposed in both ABAC and DAC-MACS.

Download or read book Developments Towards Next Generation Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Development written by Sharma, Shanu and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-04-04 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid proliferation of connected devices in our daily lives, from smart homes to industrial sensors, has led to an explosion of data that requires processing before it is useful to experts. However, modern devices often have limited resources, making it challenging to decode and utilize this data effectively. Additionally, the need for real-time decision-making further complicates this issue, as traditional data processing methods take far too long to be able to keep up with the required volume and speed. Developments Towards Next Generation Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Development offers a comprehensive solution to these challenges by integrating novel technologies such as AI, edge computing, federated learning, quantum computing, and more. The book shows how intelligent systems can maximize computing power by leveraging these technologies to process large volumes of data efficiently and autonomously and make real-time decisions. The proposed architectures and frameworks focus on real-time analysis, faster decision-making, enhanced privacy, and efficient data processing.

Download or read book Foundations of Security written by Christoph Kern and published by Apress. This book was released on 2007-05-11 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software developers need to worry about security as never before. They need clear guidance on safe coding practices, and that’s exactly what this book delivers. The book does not delve deep into theory, or rant about the politics of security. Instead, it clearly and simply lays out the most common threats that programmers need to defend against. It then shows programmers how to make their defense. The book takes a broad focus, ranging over SQL injection, worms and buffer overflows, password security, and more. It sets programmers on the path towards successfully defending against the entire gamut of security threats that they might face.
