Towards a Security, Privacy, Dependability, Interoperability Framework for the Internet of Things
A popular application of ambient intelligence systems constitutes of assisting living services on smart buildings. As intelligence is imported in embedded equipment, the system becomes able to provide smart services (e.g. control lights, airconditioning, provide energy management services etc.). IoT is the main enabler of such environments. However, the interconnection of these cyber-physical systems and the processing of personal data raise serious security and privacy issues. In this paper we present a framework that can guarantee Security, Privacy, Dependability and Interoperability (SPDI) in IoT. Taking advantage of the underlying IoT deployment, the proposed framework not only implements the requested smart functionality but also provide modelling and administration that can guarantee those SPDI properties. Moreover, we provide an application example of the framework in a smart building scenario
Data Leak Detection As a Service: Challenges and Solutions
We describe a network-based data-leak detection (DLD)
technique, the main feature of which is that the detection
does not require the data owner to reveal the content of the
sensitive data. Instead, only a small amount of specialized
digests are needed. Our technique – referred to as the fuzzy
fingerprint – can be used to detect accidental data leaks due
to human errors or application flaws. The privacy-preserving
feature of our algorithms minimizes the exposure of sensitive
data and enables the data owner to safely delegate the
detection to others.We describe how cloud providers can offer
their customers data-leak detection as an add-on service
with strong privacy guarantees.
We perform extensive experimental evaluation on the privacy,
efficiency, accuracy and noise tolerance of our techniques.
Our evaluation results under various data-leak scenarios
and setups show that our method can support accurate
detection with very small number of false alarms, even
when the presentation of the data has been transformed. It
also indicates that the detection accuracy does not degrade
when partial digests are used. We further provide a quantifiable
method to measure the privacy guarantee offered by our
fuzzy fingerprint framework
Interoperability, Trust Based Information Sharing Protocol and Security: Digital Government Key Issues
Improved interoperability between public and private organizations is of key
significance to make digital government newest triumphant. Digital Government
interoperability, information sharing protocol and security are measured the
key issue for achieving a refined stage of digital government. Flawless
interoperability is essential to share the information between diverse and
merely dispersed organisations in several network environments by using
computer based tools. Digital government must ensure security for its
information systems, including computers and networks for providing better
service to the citizens. Governments around the world are increasingly
revolving to information sharing and integration for solving problems in
programs and policy areas. Evils of global worry such as syndrome discovery and
manage, terror campaign, immigration and border control, prohibited drug
trafficking, and more demand information sharing, harmonization and cooperation
amid government agencies within a country and across national borders. A number
of daunting challenges survive to the progress of an efficient information
sharing protocol. A secure and trusted information-sharing protocol is required
to enable users to interact and share information easily and perfectly across
many diverse networks and databases globally.Comment: 20 page
Proposing a secure component-based-application logic and system’s integration testing approach
Software engineering moved from traditional methods of software enterprise applications to com-ponent based development for distributed system’s applications. This new era has grown up forlast few years, with component-based methods, for design and rapid development of systems, butfact is that , deployment of all secure software features of technology into practical e-commercedistributed systems are higher rated target for intruders. Although most of research has been con-ducted on web application services that use a large share of the present software, but on the otherside Component Based Software in the middle tier ,which rapidly develops application logic, alsoopen security breaching opportunities .This research paper focus on a burning issue for researchersand scientists ,a weakest link in component based distributed system, logical attacks, that cannotbe detected with any intrusion detection system within the middle tier e-commerce distributed ap-plications. We proposed An Approach of Secure Designing application logic for distributed system,while dealing with logically vulnerability issue
