Focusing on the critical aspects of information security, the book addresses the often-overlooked necessity for systems to withstand successful attacks. While traditional research emphasizes prevention, it tends to neglect the resilience required to maintain the integrity and availability of computer systems after breaches occur. This work highlights the importance of developing strategies that not only protect against threats but also ensure recovery and continuity in the face of security incidents.
This book explores the evolving field of database security, highlighting its historical context and recent developments driven by global network advancements. It addresses the need for selective access in decentralized environments and presents a collection of essays on current challenges and classical work, offering a comprehensive overview for researchers.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Information Systems Security, ICISS 2015, held in Kolkata, India, in December 2015. The 24 revised full papers and 8 short papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 133 submissions. The papers address the following topics: access control; attacks and mitigation; cloud security; crypto systems and protocols; information flow control; sensor networks and cognitive radio; and watermarking and steganography.
This edited volume features a wide spectrum of the latest computer science research relating to cyber deception. Specifically, it features work from the areas of artificial intelligence, game theory, programming languages, graph theory, and more. The work presented in this book highlights the complex and multi-facted aspects of cyber deception, identifies the new scientific problems that will emerge in the domain as a result of the complexity, and presents novel approaches to these problems. This book can be used as a text for a graduate-level survey/seminar course on cutting-edge computer science research relating to cyber-security, or as a supplemental text for a regular graduate-level course on cyber-security.
These proceedings contain the papers selected for presentation at the 13th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security––ESORICS 2008––held October 6–8, 2008 in Torremolinos (Malaga), Spain, and hosted by the University of Malaga, C- puter Science Department. ESORICS has become the European research event in computer security. The symposium started in 1990 and has been organized on alternate years in different European countries. From 2002 it has taken place yearly. It attracts an international audience from both the academic and industrial communities. In response to the call for papers, 168 papers were submitted to the symposium. These papers were evaluated on the basis of their significance, novelty, and technical quality. Each paper was reviewed by at least three members of the Program Comm- tee. The Program Committee meeting was held electronically, holding intensive d- cussion over a period of two weeks. Finally, 37 papers were selected for presentation at the symposium, giving an acceptance rate of 22%.
This collection explores various aspects of security in distributed applications and information systems. It discusses enhanced security measures, including location-based and video information in access control policies, and addresses mutable internet pathogens and parasitic behavior. The text highlights India's potential as a hub for secure software development, emphasizing opportunities for the ICT industry. Key topics include auditable anonymous delegation, robust auction protocols, and trust management systems based on vector models. The analysis of trust in distributed systems is complemented by privacy enforcement techniques using ECA rules and mapping local to credential-based access control policies.
The protection of relationships in XML documents is examined through the XML-BB model, while enterprise application security solutions for databases are also presented. Event detection in multilevel secure databases and key management for multicast fingerprinting are discussed alongside key reshuffling schemes for wireless sensor networks. Techniques for detecting ARP spoofing and masquerade detection are explored, as well as game-theoretic approaches to credit card fraud detection and modifications to SHA-0. The text also delves into key escrow and identity revocation in identity-based encryption schemes, broadcast encryption with random key pre-distribution, and the intersection of skill specialization, gender inequit
The content covers a range of topics related to security, privacy, and efficiency in information systems. It discusses privacy-enhanced authorization policies and languages, along with the revocation of obligation and authorization policy objects. The concept of role slices for RBAC permission assignment and enforcement is introduced, alongside the design of secure indexes for encrypted databases. The trade-offs between efficiency and security in supporting range queries on these databases are explored, as well as verified query results from hybrid authentication trees.
The text delves into multilevel secure teleconferencing over public networks and the secrecy of two-party secure computation. It addresses reliable scheduling of advanced transactions and privacy-preserving decision trees for vertically partitioned data. Collaborative association rule mining and distributed k-anonymity are also examined, along with the development of database firewalls and redundancy detection in firewalls.
Anomalies in relational databases are tackled through a comprehensive detection approach, while an authorization architecture for web services is proposed. The document highlights secure model management operations, a credential-based method for resource sharing among dynamic coalitions, and secure mediation with mobile code. It also discusses security vulnerabilities in software systems from a quantitative perspective, security trade-of
This book contains the proceedings of the Fourth International Workshop on Multimedia Information Systems (MIS’98), held in Istanbul, Turkey, in September 1998. Building on the success of previous workshops in Arlington, VA, West Point, NY, and Como, Italy, this focused event gathered participants from diverse disciplines, including theory, algorithms, real-time systems, networks, operating systems, graphics, visualization, databases, and artificial intelligence, all centered on multimedia systems research. The program featured 19 technical papers, with 13 accepted as regular papers and 6 as short contributions, covering areas such as multimedia storage system design, image storage and retrieval, quality of service considerations, networking support, distributed virtual environments, and multimedia system architecture issues. Three invited talks were presented by experts in the field: Satish K. Tripathi from the University of California, Riverside, discussed "Quality of Service Support for Multimedia Data on Internet"; Paul Emmerman from the US Army Research Laboratory talked about "Visualizing the Digital Battlefield"; and Val Tannen from the University of Pennsylvania presented "Heterogeneous Data Integration with Mobile Information Manager." Additionally, a panel discussion organized by Chahab Nastar of INRIA, France, focused on "Trends in Visual Information Retrieval."
