This document discusses an approach for continuous and transparent user identification for secure web services using biometrics. It proposes a framework called CASHMA (Context-Aware Security by Hierarchical Multilevel Architecture) that uses multi-modal biometrics for continuous authentication. CASHMA authenticates users using biometric traits instead of usernames and passwords, and periodically re-authenticates users during a session to ensure security. The document describes how CASHMA works, including how it issues authentication certificates to validate user identity on an ongoing basis and adaptively sets session timeouts. It concludes that CASHMA enhances security and usability for user sessions through continuous multi-modal biometric authentication and verification.
An Overview on Authentication Approaches and Their Usability in Conjunction w...IJERA Editor
The usage of sensitive online services and applications such as online banking, e-commerce etc is increasing day by day. These technologies have tremendously improved making our daily life easier. However, these developments have been accompanied by E-piracy where attackers try to get access to services illegally. As sensitive information flow through Internet, they need support for security properties such as authentication, authorization, data confidentiality. Perhaps static password (User ID & password) is the most common and widely accepted authentication method. Online applications need strong password such as a combination of alphanumeric with special characters. In general, having one password for a single service may be easy to remember, but controlling many passwords for different services poses a tedious task on users online applications . Usually users try to use same password for different services or make slight changes in the password which can be easy for attacker to guess adding increased security threat. In order to overcome this, stronger authentication solutions need to be suggested and adapted for services based network.

AN EFFICIENT IDENTITY BASED AUTHENTICATION PROTOCOL BY USING PASSWORDIJNSA Journal
In a distributed system, authentication protocols are the basis of security to ensure that these protocols function properly. Passwords are one of the most common authentication protocol used nowadays. Because of low entropy of passwords makes the systems vulnerable to password guessing attacks. This paper presents a simple scheme that strengthens password-based authentication protocols and helps prevent dictionary attacks, replay attacks and man in the middle attacks etc., The proposed scheme presents a new password authentication protocol by using the user and server system identification/serial number. Here there is no possibility to store the user passwords so an attacker who gets the password cannot use it directly to gain immediate access and compromise security.
Database Security Two Way Authentication Using Graphical PasswordIJERA Editor
As data represent a key asset for today's organizations. The problem is that how to protect this data from
attackers, theft and misuse is at the forefront of any organization’s mind. Even though today several data
security techniques are available to protect database and computing infrastructure, many such as network
security and firewalls tools are unable to prevent attacks from insider. Insider is a person working in
organization who can try to access the sensitive data. This paper proposes a two-way authentication method
which fuses knowledge-based secret and personal trait information.
Banking and Modern Payments System Security AnalysisCSCJournals
Cyber-criminals have benefited from on-line banking (OB), regardless of the extensive research on financial cyber-security. To better be prepared for what the future might bring, we try to predict how hacking tools might evolve. We briefly survey the state-of-the-art tools developed by black- hat hackers and conclude that they could be automated dramatically. To demonstrate the feasibility of our predictions and prove that many two-factor authentication schemes can be bypassed, we have analyzed banking and modern payments system security.
In this research we will review different payment protocols and security methods that are being used to run banking systems. We will survey some of the popular systems that are being used today, with a deeper focus on the Chips, cards, NFC, authentication etc. In addition, we will also discuss the weaknesses in the systems that can compromise the customer's trust.
This presentation talks about various access management topics in IAM domain like authentication, authorization, MFA, Password less authentication, certificate based authentication SSO protocols like SAML, OIDC.
International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications (IJERA) is an open access online peer reviewed international journal that publishes research and review articles in the fields of Computer Science, Neural Networks, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Plastic Engineering, Food Technology, Textile Engineering, Nano Technology & science, Power Electronics, Electronics & Communication Engineering, Computational mathematics, Image processing, Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Environmental Engineering, VLSI Testing & Low Power VLSI Design etc.
In most networks and distributed systems, security
has always been of a major concern and authentication is the core
issue as it provides protection from unauthorized use and ensures
proper functioning of the system. This paper investigates and
proposes DS-NIZKP, an approach for authenticating users by
three factors, (namely password, smart-card and biometrics)
based on the concept of Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP), so that no
sensitive information can be revealed during a communication.
The proposal employs the concept of digital signature (DS) to
authenticate the identity of the sender or the signer within a
single communication. Given that DS employs asymmetric
encryption, a one-way hash of the user’s identity is created then
signed using the private key. Hashing prevents from revealing
information about the user while signing provides authentication,
non-repudiation and integrity. This approach not only saves time
since just a single message between the prover and the verifier is
necessary but also defends privacy of the user in distributed
systems.
A secure communication in smart phones using two factor authenticationeSAT Journals
Abstract Most secure systems face security attacks mainly at the client side. Two Factor Authentication (TFA) provides improved protection to the system at the client side by prompting to provide something they know and something they have. This system uses a one time password(OTP) generation method which doesn’t require client-server communication, which frees the system from cost of sending a dynamic password each time the client wants to login. The OTP generation uses the factors that are unique to the user and is installed on a smart phone in Android platform owned by the user. An OTP is valid for a minutes time, after which, is useless. The system thus provides better client level security – a simple low cost method which protects system from hacking techniques like key logging, phishing, shoulder surfing, etc. Keywords—Authentication, OTP, key logging, phishing

A BASTION MOBILEID-BASED AUTHENTICATION TECHNIQUE (BMBAT)IJNSA Journal
Despite their proven security breaches, text passwords have been dominating all other methods of human authentication over the web for tens of years, however, the frequent successful attacks that exploit the passwords vulnerable model raises the need to enhance web authentication security. This paper proposes BMBAT; a new authentication technique to replace passwords, that leverages the pervasive user mobile
devices, QR codes and the strength of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. In BMBAT, the user’s
mobile device acts as a user identity prover and a verifier for the server; it employs a challenge-response model with a dual mode of encryption using AES and RSA keys to mutually authenticate the client to the server and vice-versa. BMBAT combats a set of attack vectors including phishing attacks, man in the middle attacks, eavesdropping and session hijacking. A prototype of BMBAT has been developed and evaluated; the evaluation results show that BMBAT is a feasible and competitive alternative to passwords.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
