   Abstract : Certificate Transparency is an ecosystem of logs, monitors, and auditors that hold certificate authorities accountable while issuing certificates. We show how the amount of trust that TLS clients and domain owners need to place in Certificate Transparency can be reduced, both in the context of existing gradual deployments and the largely unexplored area of Tor.

   Abstract : The rapid advances in information and communication technology enable a shift from diverse systems empowered mainly by either hardware or software to cyber-physical systems (CPSs) that are driving Critical infrastructures (CIs), such as energy and manufacturing systems. However, alongside the expected enhancements in efficiency and reliability, the induced connectivity exposes these CIs to cyberattacks exemplified by Stuxnet and WannaCry ransomware cyber incidents.
