USABILIDADE DE APLICATIVOS DE SEGURANÇA COLABORATIVA PARA SMARTPHONES: UMA REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA

The society is permeated by devices connected to information networks through the Internet. The mobility offered by mobile devices such as smartphones is a key element in the dynamics of information today. Still, the lack of security is one of the problems that afflict most Brazilians in recent years and mobile devices are being used to mitigate it. This research aims to carry out a systematic review of the literature in order to identify the different approaches on testing and usability of applications that promote collaborative security checking the state of the art in this domain.A sociedade está permeada por dispositivos conectados às redes de informações por meio da Internet.

Enhancing the Usability of the Commercial Mobile Alert System

Part 3: INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITYInternational audienceThe U.S. Department of Homeland Security initiated the Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS) to inform the general public of emergencies. CMAS utilizes the commercial telecommunications infrastructure to broadcast emergency alert text messages to mobile users in an area affected by an emergency. Because CMAS uses cell broadcast service, the smallest area that CMAS can broadcast messages is a cell site, which is usually quite large for local emergencies. This paper proposes an enhancement that uses CMAS as a transport protocol to distribute local emergency alerts to areas smaller than a cell site. The paper also conducts an investigation of the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), the current emergency protocol standard, and suggests an enhancement to the CAP message structure for CMAS emergency alerts. The viability of the approach is demonstrated using a prototype implementation, which simulates broadcasts of emergency alerts to confined areas such as a city block or an apartment complex
