Clouds are here to stay, and the same holds for cyber-physical systems—not to forget their combination. In light of these changing paradigms, it is of utter importance to reconsider security as both introduce ...
Mobile devices, like tablets and smartphones, are common place in everyday life. Thus, the degree of security these devices can provide against digital forensics is of particular interest. A common method to a...
The trend of cloud databases is leaning towards Not Only SQL (NoSQL) databases as they provide better support for scalable storage and quick retrieval of exponentially voluminous data. One of the more prominen...
Cloud computing provides a convenient and on-demand access to virtually unlimited computing resources. Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is an emerging technology that integrates cloud computing technology with mob...
Memory forensics plays an important role in security and forensic investigations. Hence, numerous studies have investigated Windows memory forensics, and considerable progress has been made. In contrast, resea...
Cloud storages in cloud data centers can be used for enterprises and individuals to store and access their data remotely anywhere anytime without any additional burden. By data outsourcing, users can be reliev...
Taxonomy trees are used in machine learning, information retrieval, bioinformatics, and multi-agent systems for matching as well as matchmaking in e-business, e-marketplaces, and e-learning. A weighted tree si...
In smart grids, providing power consumption statistics to the customers and generating recommendations for managing electrical devices are considered to be effective methods that can help to reduce energy cons...
A true random number generator (TRNG) is proposed and evaluated by field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) implementation that generates random numbers by exclusive-ORing (XORing) the outputs of many SR latches ...
Most of the anti-phishing solutions are having two major limitations; the first is the need of a fast access time for a real-time environment and the second is the need of high detection rate. Black-list-based...
Software control is a critical issue in cyber-physical systems (CPS); if the expected behavior of the software embedded in a single device of a CPS cannot be enforced then the behavior of the whole CPS may be ...
With the rapid development of the cloud computing service, utilizing traditional access control models was difficult to meet the complex requirements of data protection in cloud environment. In cloud environme...
The encryption of network traffic complicates legitimate network monitoring, traffic analysis, and network forensics. In this paper, we present real-time lightweight identification of HTTPS clients based on ne...
Information security is key important when we are trying to interconnect the wireless body sensor network with the healthcare social network via mobile facilities. In this paper, we specially work on a secured...
Aiming at the existing IP geolocation approaches does not consider the errors of landmarks and delay; a new geolocation approach-utilized landmark calibration is proposed in this paper. At first, we find out t...
We study the large-coalition asymptotics of fingerprinting and group testing and derive explicit decoders that provably achieve capacity for many of the considered models. We do this both for simple decoders (...
Smartphone advertisement is increasingly used among many applications and allows developers to obtain revenue through in-app advertising. Our study aims at identifying potential security risks of mobile-based ...
This paper develops a retrieval scheme for encrypted JPEG images based on a Markov process. In our scheme, the stream cipher and permutation encryption are combined to encrypt discrete cosine transform (DCT) c...
Information processing services are becoming increasingly pervasive, such as is demonstrated by the Internet of Things or smart grids. Given the importance that these services have reached in our daily life, t...
In this paper, we propose two different solutions for making a recently proposed asymmetric fingerprinting protocol based on client-side embedding robust to collusion attacks. The first solution is based on pr...
Palmprint is a widely used biometric trait deployed in various access-control applications due to its convenience in use, reliability, and low cost. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme for palmprint recog...
Currently, there are several ongoing efforts for the definition of new regulation policies, paradigms, and technologies aiming a more efficient usage of the radio spectrum. In this context, cognitive radio (CR...

To be successful, cybercriminals must figure out how to scale their scams. They duplicate content on new websites, often staying one step ahead of defenders that shut down past schemes. For some scams, such as...
