CERT strategy to deal with phishing attacks
Every day, internet thieves employ new ways to obtain personal identity
people and get access to their personal information. Phishing is a somehow
complex method that has recently been considered by internet thieves.The
present study aims to explain phishing, and why an organization should deal
with it and its challenges of providing. In addition, different kinds of this
attack and classification of security approaches for organizational and lay
users are addressed in this article. Finally, the CERT strategy is presented to
deal with phishing and studying some anti-phishing
Privacy Leakages in Approximate Adders
Approximate computing has recently emerged as a promising method to meet the
low power requirements of digital designs. The erroneous outputs produced in
approximate computing can be partially a function of each chip's process
variation. We show that, in such schemes, the erroneous outputs produced on
each chip instance can reveal the identity of the chip that performed the
computation, possibly jeopardizing user privacy. In this work, we perform
simulation experiments on 32-bit Ripple Carry Adders, Carry Lookahead Adders,
and Han-Carlson Adders running at over-scaled operating points. Our results
show that identification is possible, we contrast the identifiability of each
type of adder, and we quantify how success of identification varies with the
extent of over-scaling and noise. Our results are the first to show that
approximate digital computations may compromise privacy. Designers of future
approximate computing systems should be aware of the possible privacy leakages
and decide whether mitigation is warranted in their application.Comment: 2017 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS
