Digital Forensics for Artificial
Intelligence (AI ) Systems:
AI systems make decisions impacting our daily life Their actions might cause accidents, harm or, more generally, violate
regulations either intentionally or not and consequently might be considered suspects for various events. In this lecture we explore how digital forensics can be performed for AI based systems.
Forensics on the Internet of Things plays a vital role in the development of a much more secured IoT environment as the compromised nodes can be easily discovered so as the hacker who has done it.
Internet of Things means every household or handy device which is used to make our world easy and better and connected with IP which transmit some data.
This slide covers IOT description, OWASP Top 10 2014 & its recommendations.
This document has been prepared in order to develop a good Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Assessment Lab. The document contains Hardware requirements, our manual & automated Software requirements, approaches for Performing Penetration testing.
Further, this document is design to make a Penetration test LAB in order to simulate the vulnerabilities in the testing environment and to execute the vulnerability assessment & penetration testing from the LAB by providing the Static IP to the Client, ensuring that the test is being performed from a valid/legitimate link.
Fog Computing is a paradigm that extends Cloud computing and services to the edge of the network. Similar to Cloud, Fog provides data, compute, storage, and application services to end-users. The motivation of Fog computing lies in a series of real scenarios, such as Smart Grid, smart traffic lights in vehicular networks and software defined networks.

The IoT Forensics could be perceived as a subdivision of the Digital Forensics. IoT Forensics is a relatively new and unexplored area. The purpose of the IoT Forensics is similar to the one of the Digital Forensics, which is to identify and extract digital information in a legal and forensically sound manner.
Computer forensics is a very important branch of computer science in relation to computer and Internet related crimes. Earlier, computers were only used to produce data but now it has expanded to all devices related to digital data. The goal of Computer forensics is to perform crime investigations by using evidence from digital data to find who was the responsible for that particular crime.
For better research and investigation, developers have created many computer forensics tools. Police departments and investigation agencies select the tools based on various factors including budget and available experts on the team.

Mrinal Karvir, Senior Cloud Software Engineering Manager at Intel, presents the “Responsible AI: Tools and Frameworks for Developing AI Solutions” tutorial at the May 2023 Embedded Vision Summit.
Over 90% of businesses using AI say trustworthy and explainable AI is critical to business, according to Morning Consult’s IBM Global AI Adoption Index 2021. If not designed with responsible considerations of fairness, transparency, preserving privacy, safety and security, AI systems can cause significant harm to people and society and result in financial and reputational damage for companies.
How can we take a human-centric approach to design AI solutions? How can we identify different types of bias and what tools can we use to mitigate those? What are model cards, and how can we use them to improve transparency? What tools can we use to preserve privacy and improve security? In this talk, Karvir discusses practical approaches to adoption of responsible AI principles. She highlights relevant tools and frameworks and explores industry case studies. She also discusses building a well-defined response plan to help address an AI incident efficiently.

We are living in security era, where we are securing all our belongings under different modes of lock but it’s different in the case of system security. We are carelessly leaving our datas and softwares unlocked. The state of security on the internet is bad and getting worse. One reaction to this state of affairs is termed as Ethical Hacking which attempts to increase security protection by identifying and patching known security vulnerabilities on systems owned by other parties. As public and private organizations migrate more of their critical functions to the Internet, criminals have more opportunity and incentive to gain access to sensitive information through the Web application. So, Ethical hacking is an assessment to test and check an information technology environment for possible weak links and vulnerabilities. Ethical hacking describes the process of hacking a network in an ethical way, therefore with good intentions. This paper describes what ethical hacking is, what it can do, an ethical hacking methodology as well as some tools which can be used for an ethical hack.

First line of defense for cybersecurity : AIAhmed Banafa
The year 2017 wasn't a great year for cyber-security; we saw a large number of high-profile cyber attacks; including Uber, Deloitte, Equifax and the now infamous WannaCry ransomware attack, and 2018 started with a bang too with the hacking of Winter Olympics.
The frightening truth about increasingly cyber-attacks is that most businesses and the cybersecurity industry itself are not prepared. Despite the constant flow of security updates and patches, the number of attacks continues to rise.
Threat intelligence (TI) is at the maturity level to become a decision making tool. TI refers to evidence based information including context such as mechanisms, Indicators of Compromise (IOC), Indicators of Attribution (IOA), implications and actionable advice about existing or emerging hazards to assets. TI allows the technical staff professionals to make better decisions and take action accordingly
In this presentation, I highlighted the significance of adopting development methods for the successful development of IoT-based systems. By adopting systematic development methods, we can ensure that IoT systems are built with a structured approach, minimizing risks and enhancing overall reliability. I discussed the benefits of utilizing development methods, such as improved project management, streamlined development processes, and the ability to consistently deliver high-quality IoT solutions.

Role of ontologies in beach safety management analytics systemsMahdi_Fahmideh
Events at public beaches are one of the most popular recreational activities of local communities and international visitors in all places around the world. Amongst others, the beach safety management in protected areas needs support for continuous analysis and decision making on incidents at the beach areas. There is a lack of available standard models to assist data scientists to represent analytics models including different spheres of interplay domain variables related to beach safety management. Using the Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM), we developed ontological models that facilitate a unified representation and maintenance analytics models. We contribute to the ontology design theory for analytics models underlying analytics systems for the beach safety management domain. Our research findings can be used in the general class of ontology design problem for analytics systems in practice.
The 27th Australasian Conference on Information SystemsMahdi_Fahmideh
Many organisations are currently moving their legacy systems to the cloud as it offers reduced cost, improved operational efficiency, on-demand, and pay-as-you-go service models. While any cloud migration scenario to make legacies cloud-enabled may have their own characteristics, there is no universally superior or applicable method for all scenarios. In situations like this, designing customization methods that fit characteristics of migration scenarios would be pivotal for successful adoption of cloud computing. The literature review reveals that issues surrounding method tailoring for the cloud migration have so far been missing and this is despite the call made by previous researches to adopt a tailoring perspective to the cloud enablement. To effectively address this shortcoming, this study applied the idea of situational method engineering to develop a framework which facilitates the design and maintenance of bespoke cloud migration methods. The paper demonstrates the applicability of the proposed framework via presenting two scenarios.
A Model-Driven Approach to Support Cloud Migration Process- A Language Infras...Mahdi_Fahmideh
Adoption of cloud computing as a new outsourcing strategy has grown rapidly among IT-based organisations in recent years. Research around migrating legacy systems to cloud environments is proliferated with a variety of approaches that often narrow down in technical details. However, an overarching and integrated view of cloud migration process does not exist in the current literature. As an at-tempt to ameliorate this shortcoming, this research applies a metamodeling approach and develops a generic cloud migration process model derived from the extant cloud migration literature. The proposed metamodel is not dependent or restricted to any specific cloud platform; rather it is an abstraction of phases, activities, tasks, and work-products that are incorporated in a typical migration process. It underpins a high-level and conceptual view of cloud migration process and acts as a reusable knowledge repository to design situation-specific migration process models for a given migration scenario at hand.

2. AI systems make decisions impacting our daily life. Their actions might cause accidents, harm or, more generally, violate
regulations – either intentionally or not – and consequently might be considered suspects for various events.
Malicious by design (Malicious developers) !
◦ Performing a malicious act and the AI system is simply a means to this end. That is, an AI might be used as any other tool, e.g., a
crowbar for burglary, to conduct a criminal act.
◦ Data injection using sophisticated adversarial examples
Examples:
◦ Did the drone drop the object on purpose?
◦ Did the chat bot contact a person, attempting to lure her into a scam?
◦ Did the autonomous car cause the accident due to risky driving?
2
3. Options to tamper with an AI depend on the system’s capabilities and design
◦ Train a model to conduct a malicious act
◦ Use AI system as is, but specify malicious objectives
◦ Altering system internals
◦ Leave model as is but manipulate through adversarial inputs
◦ What else???
Generating cyber crims
3
4. Today, AI systems are ultimately controlled by humans, but they are already capable of conducting tasks autonomously with
learning capabilities which makes them superior to traditional computer programs.
◦ Thus, AI systems provide novel opportunities for attackers!
AI systems might be modified to be malicious where the only security boundary is the acquisition of the AI, which is in
contrast to classical attacks targeting typically protected systems during their operation.
What are other examples of attacker actions and tampering drone?

6. In the near future, we can imagine foods and groceries
being drone-dropped not just to the time-crunched dual-
income couple with children, but also to the doorstep of an
older adult who is no longer comfortable or capable of
driving to the local market.

8. Strategies for Investigation
Strategies can focus on each of AI components that determine behaviour:
model, model objective and data
◦ Data focused: Since training data determines model behaviour and
operational data reflects model behaviour, data on its own might be
sufficient to determine malicious intent
◦ Model focused: Model analysis might use abstract reasoning based on
model definitions. Models might also be analysed through empirical
investigation, i.e. input-responses
◦ Investigate the input-output relationship of a model: The model can be
treated as a black-box. The analysis relies on investigating model
behaviour based on its decisions
◦ Investigate the reaction of model internals to inputs: This strategy
requires more access to allow for white or grey-box testing. It includes
analysing the AI system components. For instance, a deep learning
network consists of layers and each layer has neurons that perform simple
computations

10. Reviewing a Case (Recall from Module 3)
General tasks you perform in any computer forensics case:
◦ Identify the case requirements
◦ Plan your investigation
◦ Conduct the investigation
◦ Complete the case report
◦ Critique the case

11. Strategies for Investigation (continue)
◦ Investigative Questions
◦ what is the likelihood of a given suspected AI performing these decisions compared to those of other models?
◦ is the suspected AI reacting to objects related to the incident more strongly than other models?
◦ is the suspected AI behaving normally?
◦ Access to System Internals
◦ black-box model
◦ white-box model
◦ grey-box model
◦ Access to training and test data
◦ Attacker Model
◦ The attacker wants to trigger an action A, e.g. dropping of the parcel given a person’s face
◦ Challenges of Data-driven Investigation
◦ Analyzing input output behavior which comes with specific difficulties
◦ Check if all input samples produce the correct output. If not, the system is suspicious. In practice, the situation
is more difficult. There might be too many inputs to test and not all of them are typically available!
◦ Technical Setup
◦ Training data

13. ◦ Initialization Process
◦ the initialization process deals with the procedures of initiating an investigation whenever an incident is detected. This is mostly a post-event response
mechanism and includes first response after incident detection, planning and preparing a digital investigation process.
◦ PDE (Potential Digital Evidence) Data Sources Identification
◦ different types of PDE that can be captured
◦ identify reliable sources and/or the origin of each of the different types of PDE at hand before the analysis process begins
◦ Deep learning enabled cyber forensic investigation engine
◦ this layer is meant to handle the investigative process. The phases integrated in this layer include: evidence acquisition, evidence preservation, evidence
analysis and finally evidence interpretation
◦ Forensic Reporting and Presentation
◦ once the investigative process is complete, a forensic report needs to be provided
◦ this report is what is then presented to the different stakeholders
◦ draw a conclusion from observed values and determine to what category new observations belong
◦ Report
◦ a detailed analysis of all the PDE captured
◦ proof and justification of all sources of each captured item of the evidence
◦ a detailed descriptions of each captured item of evidence and how it was preserved
◦ links and relationships that exist between sources and evidence captured
◦ detailed descriptions of the intentions of the attacker to the targeted victims
◦ explanations on the effects of the attack to the targeted victims
◦ and any other relevant information to the investigation at hand

◦ the last layer handles decision making and case closure
◦ the jury and the law enforcement agencies in most cases are human beings hence the inability to fully automate this phase

15. Responsible AI. When it comes to AI and Ethics/Law, there are two interrelated aspects of the topic. One is on how
to design, develop, and validate AI technologies and systems responsibly (i.e., Responsible AI) so that we can
adequately assure ethical and legal concerns, especially pertaining to human values.
The use of AI itself as a means to achieve the Responsible AI ends!
The inherent and technical trustworthiness of an AI system can be directly reflected in technologies/products via
code, algorithms, data or system design or indirectly reflected via the software development processes).
Ethical principles in designing Responsible AI
15
16. Australia’s ethical AI principles contain eight key principles (CSIRO Data61 team proposal)
P1: Human, social and environmental wellbeing: Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should benefit individuals,
society and the environment.
P2: Human-centred values: Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should respect human rights, diversity, and the
autonomy of individuals.
P3: Fairness: Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should be inclusive and accessible, and should not involve or result in
unfair discrimination against individuals, communities or groups.
P4: Privacy protection and security: Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should respect and uphold privacy rights and
data protection, and ensure the security of data.
P5: Reliability and safety: Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should reliably operate in accordance with their intended
purpose.
P6: Transparency and explainability: There should be transparency and responsible disclosure to ensure people know
when they are being significantly impacted by an AI system, and can find out when an AI system is engaging with them.
P7: Contestability: When an AI system significantly impacts a person, community, group or environment, there should be a
timely process to allow people to challenge the use or output of the AI system.

17. Twitter allows businesses to engage personally with consumers. However, there’s so much data on Twitter that it can be hard for brands to prioritize
which tweets or mentions to respond to first. That's why sentiment analysis has become a key instrument in social media marketing strategies. Sentiment
analysis is a tool that automatically monitors emotions in conversations on social media platforms and can aid twitter users or policy makers in decision
making, e.g., newspaper, disaster management, gossip, fake news
A poor sentiment analysis application design may cause some forensics threats for example:
(i) false information or misleading its users
(ii) polarization, e.g., dividing communities and hindering constructive dialogue
(iii) malicious users exploit the outputs of a sentiment analysis to identify and target specific individuals for online harassment or bullying
(iv) And other examples..
What are the examples of AI principles that should be supported by a Twitter Sentiment Analysis application to avoid forensic threats?
AI principle Example
P1: Human, social, and
environmental wellbeing
Provide a safe and respectful environment for users and take action
against accounts or content that violate community guidelines or terms of
service such as online harassment and hate speech
P3: Fairness Ensure that the sentiment analysis application does not favour or
discriminate against specific individuals, groups, or opinions
P4: Privacy protection
and security
Anonymize or aggregate data to prevent the identification of individuals
P5: Reliability and safety Collect comments that are from valid users, e.g., not fake, comment/post
pre-processing
P6: Transparency and
explainability
Help users understand how their comments/posts is being analysed and
reduces the potential for misunderstandings or mistrust
