- Top IT Security Threats: How to Protect Your Users From Increasingly Sophisticated Attacks
- High-profile data breaches frequent the headlines, with countless smaller incidents happening almost daily. Data is under attack, and the frequency of assaults and sophistication of the methods employed are increasing. Rather than targeting the network directly, hackers often exploit the most vulnerable part of the security ecosystem - the users....

- Engendering Effective Web Security on a Tight Budget (or How to Have Your Security Cake and Eat It)
- The Internet has changed beyond anything could have foreseen just five years ago. It is no longer a browsing medium: it is full of Web 2.0 applications, real time communications challenges and a whole range of threats that are designed to piggy back on this new usage. The presenters of...

- From Web Browsing to Social Networking: Securing Employee Internet Use in a Web 2.0 World
- The Internet has changed. It is no longer about e-mail and web browsing. Instead Internet traffic is dominated by Web 2.0 applications such as Video, Voice, IM Instant Messaging, P2P, and social networking. These consumer-oriented applications are introduced by employees in the workplace to gain efficiencies, but they circumvent existing...

- Flexible Forward Error Correction Codes With Application to Partial Media Data Recovery
- Conventionally, linear block codes designed for packet erasure correction are targeted to recover all the lost source packets per block, when the fraction of lost data is smaller than the redundancy overhead. However, these codes fail to recover any lost packets, if the number of erasures just exceeds the limit...

- Cloud Computing and Emerging IT Platforms: Vision, Hype, and Reality for Delivering Computing as the 5th Utility
- With the significant advances in Information and Communications Technology ICT over the last half century, there is an increasingly perceived vision that computing will one day be the 5th utility (after water, electricity, gas, and telephony). This computing utility, like all other four existing utilities, will provide the basic level...

- Making Threat Management More Manageable
- Human factors, often unaccounted for and masked by IDS products, and operations in the trenches, can create holes in intelligence coverage and performance gaps in incident operations. But, what role, in these modern integrated IT security times, does IDS plan in the great scheme of things? This webcast will help...

- Efficient Tag Detection in RFID Systems
- Off late technological advances have motivated large-scale deployment of RFID systems. However, a number of critical design issues relating to efficient detection of tags remain unresolved. This paper addresses three important problems associated with tag detection in RFID systems: accurately detecting RFID tags in the presence of reader interference (reader...

- Value-Based Predicate Filtering of XML Documents
- Publish-subscribe systems based on XML filtering have received much attention in ubiquitous computing environments and Internet applications. The main challenge is to process a large number of content against millions of user subscriptions. Several XML filtering systems focus on the efficient processing of structural matching of user subscriptions represented as...

- Two Layer Denial of Service Prevention on SIP VoIP Infrastructures
- The emergence of Voice over IP VoIP has offered numerous advantages for end users and providers alike, but simultaneously has introduced security threats, vulnerabilities and attacks not previously encountered in networks with a closed architecture like the Public Switch Telephone Network PSTN. This paper proposes two layer architecture to prevent...

- A Framework for Fast RFID Tag Reading in Static and Mobile Environments
- A framework for reducing the average reading time of passive RFID tags in dense environments is introduced. The proposed framework termed Accelerated Frame Slotted ALOHA AFSA can be used in conjunction with almost all RFID tag reading protocols that are based on frame slotted ALOHA. It is shown that AFSA...

- ABridges: Scalable, Self-Con?guring Ethernet Campus Networks
- This paper describes a scalable, self-configuring architecture for campus networks, the ABridges architecture. It is a two-tiered hierarchy of layer two switches in which network islands running independent rapid spanning tree protocols communicate through a core formed by island root bridges ABridges. ABridges use AMSTP, a simplified and self con-figuring...

- From UML State Charts to DEVS State Machines Using XML
- Modeling and Simulation (M&S) for system design and prototyping is practiced today both in the industry and academia. Modeling and Simulation are two different areas altogether and have specific objectives. However, most of the times these two separate areas are taken together. The developed code is tightly woven around and...

- Automatic Grid Assembly by Promoting Collaboration in Peer-to-Peer Grids
- Currently, most computational grids systems allowing transparent sharing of computing resources across organizational boundaries are assembled using human negotiation. This procedure does not scale well, and is too inflexible to allow for large open grids. Peer-to-peer grids present an alternative way to build grids with many sites. However, to actually...

- Offline/Realtime Traffic Classification Using Semi-Supervised Learning
- Identifying and categorizing network traffic by application type is challenging because of the continued evolution of applications, especially of those with a desire to be undetectable. The diminished effectiveness of port-based identification and the overheads of deep packet inspection approaches motivate us to classify traffic by exploiting distinctive flow characteristics...

- Federated Grid Clusters Using Service Address Routed Optical Networks
- Clusters of computers have emerged as cost-effective parallel and/or distributed computing systems for computationally intensive tasks. Normally, clusters are composed of high performance computational nodes linked together by low-latency/high-bandwidth interconnection networks. With the advent of modern optical networking technologies, geographically distant clusters can be federated to yield systems considered tightly-coupled....

- Credit Scoring With a Data Mining Approach Based on Support Vector Machines
- The credit card industry has been growing rapidly recently, and thus huge numbers of consumers' credit data are collected by the credit department of the bank. The credit scoring manager often evaluates the consumer's credit with intuitive experience. However, with the support of the credit classification model, the manager can...

- A Queueing Analysis for the Denial of Service (DoS) Attacks in Computer Networks
- In most network security analysis, researchers mainly focus on qualitative studies on security schemes and possible attacks, and there are few papers on quantitative analysis in the current literature. This paper proposes one queueing model for the evaluation of the Denial of Service DoS attacks in computer networks. The network...
