  1. 1. Rethinking Speculative Execution from a Security Perspective

    Author : Christos Sakalis; Magnus Själander; Alexandra Jimborean; Stefanos Kaxiras; Josep Torrellas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer architecture; speculative execution; processor; security; out-of-order execution; side-channel; microarchitectural replay; microarchitecture; Delay-on-Miss; Ghosts; Delay-on-Squash; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Speculative out-of-order execution is one of the fundamental building blocks of modern, high-performance processors. To maximize the utilization of the system's resources, hardware and software security checks in the speculative domain can be temporarily ignored, without affecting the correctness of the application, as long as no architectural changes are made before transitioning to the non-speculative domain.

  2. 2. Advancing Automation in Digital Forensic Investigations

    Author : Irvin Homem; Panagiotis Papapetrou; Fredrik Blix; Indre Žliobaitė; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Digital Forensics; Machine Learning; Computer Forensics; Network Forensics; Predictive Modelling; Distributed Systems; Mobile Devices; Mobile Forensics; Memory Forensics; Android; Semantic Web; Hypervisors; Virtualization; Remote Acquisition; Evidence Analysis; Correlation; P2P; Bittorrent; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Digital Forensics is used to aid traditional preventive security mechanisms when they fail to curtail sophisticated and stealthy cybercrime events. The Digital Forensic Investigation process is largely manual in nature, or at best quasi-automated, requiring a highly skilled labour force and involving a sizeable time investment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Web Application Content Security

    Author : Daniel Hausknecht; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Content Security Policy; crawling; web application security; web security; client side; security HTTP headers;

    Abstract : The web has become ubiquitous in modern lives. People go online to stay in contact with their friends or to manage their bank account. With lots of different sensitive information handled by web applications securing them naturally becomes important. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards Understanding and Applying Security Assurance Cases for Automotive Systems

    Author : Mazen Mohamad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; security claims; assurance case; evidence; arguments; automotive; security; automotive systems;

    Abstract : Security Assurance Cases (SAC) are structured bodies of arguments and evidence used to reason about security properties of a certain artefact. SAC are gaining focus in the automotive domain as the need for security assurance is growing due to software becoming a main part of vehicles. READ MORE
