This document discusses the design and analysis of a new stream cipher for network security. It aims to improve upon existing stream ciphers which are vulnerable to algebraic and other attacks. The proposed design uses nonlinear S-boxes, linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs), and Boolean functions with high algebraic immunity to securely encrypt data transmitted over networks and wireless communications like GSM. Analysis shows the new stream cipher can securely send information over networks by resisting common attacks.
Chapter 1 2
This document provides an introduction to cryptography and network security. It defines cryptography as the study of secret writing and discusses its use in securing communications and verifying messages. The document outlines basic concepts in cryptography like plaintext, ciphertext, ciphers, keys, encryption, and decryption. It also discusses different types of security, like unconditional security based on information theory versus computational security based on limiting an attacker's resources. The overall document serves as a high-level overview of cryptography and security.
Comprehensive Study Of security of IoT
This document provides an overview of security issues related to the Internet of Things (IoT). It defines three common IoT reference models - a three-level model, five-level model, and Cisco's seven-level model. It then discusses the scope of IoT applications, potential attackers and their motivations, key security requirements, and vulnerabilities at different levels. The document analyzes potential attacks and countermeasures and identifies two emerging security challenges as the exponential increase in weak links and unexpected use of data. It concludes that IoT will continue to present new threats and attacks against security and privacy that must be addressed.
Steganography
This document discusses steganography, which is the art and science of hiding messages within other harmless-looking carriers or covers. Some examples of historical steganography techniques include using wax tablets, tattoos, and invisible ink. Modern digital steganography can hide messages in text, images, audio, and video. Image steganography is particularly common, as it takes advantage of human's limited visual perception of colors. Steganography, combined with cryptography for encryption, provides a secure means of communication. However, steganography can also enable illegal or terrorist activities if abused. The field of steganalysis aims to detect hidden messages for security purposes.

This document summarizes a presentation on behavioral intrusion detection and machine learning. The presentation discusses how machine learning can help detect advanced and insider threats by analyzing behavioral patterns. It also talks about the failings of traditional cybersecurity defenses and how a philosophy of "fractal defense" can help scale detection, protection, and response across different levels of an IT ecosystem. Fractal defense is based on the concept that security principles apply across different scales, similar to how fractals exhibit repeating patterns at different magnitudes.
Network Security Fundamental
This document discusses network security. It covers the need for security, goals of security like integrity, confidentiality, authentication, non-repudiation and availability. It then discusses famous malware types like viruses, worms and trojan horses.

The Road Less Traveled: Use-cases, Challenges, and Solutions of Homomorphic E...Trupti Shiralkar, CISSP
In this hyper-connected and data-driven world, information can be highly valuable. User data can be collected and analyzed using machine learning techniques to create a superior customer experience. There is a tension between the benefits of digital freedom and privacy. Striking a careful and unique balance between privacy and security of user data can be challenging. In this asymmetric battle, are there techniques that help to protect the privacy of user data while benefiting from the results of collected data analysis? The answer is Yes. Homomorphic encryption may be an effective mechanism to protect both privacy and confidentiality of the data at the same time by enabling computation on encrypted data.
The concept of homomorphic encryption has been around in theory since the RSA algorithm was published in 1978. Recent research shows promising applications of this mathematical invention. The presentation provides an overview of homomorphic encryption and how it can be used to perform computations while helping to preserve privacy. The speaker will also discuss a few use-cases of differential privacy, homomorphic encryption and security implications associated with them.
The target audience for this talk is security engineers, privacy advocates, software development engineers and managers, technical program managers and anyone who is involved in protecting privacy. The attendees will walk away with a general understanding of this topic and its usage and a framework to mitigate challenges.Cryptography and attacks ins
The document defines different types of attacks on cryptography systems including passive and active attacks. Passive attacks attempt to learn information without affecting system resources, while active attacks try to alter system operations. The document also discusses cryptography, defining it as the practice of hiding information and converting plain text into unintelligible cipher text. Symmetric key cryptography uses a shared key for encryption and decryption, while asymmetric key cryptography uses public and private key pairs.

It reviewed literature on the topic and concluded by discussing the advantages and limitations of cryptography as well as its applications.
Privacy-Preserving Reasoning on the Semantic Web (Poster)
The document discusses strategies for privacy-preserving reasoning on the semantic web by hiding private knowledge as if it is incomplete knowledge under the open world assumption. It presents an approach where queries are answered with "unknown" for both incomplete knowledge and hidden knowledge, so the querying agent cannot distinguish between them. The hidden knowledge is protected as if it is incomplete knowledge. It ensures the answers to queries will not provide knowledge beyond the critical visible knowledge.

The document discusses using semantic web technologies like Resource Description Framework (RDF) and SPARQL to build "thin slices" or concise queries of network traffic data that can help identify security threats. It notes that current security tools analyze too much data without fully understanding it, and proposes an alternative model using RDF to replicate how the human mind finds patterns. An example shows constructing SPARQL queries to analyze source and destination IP addresses in network packets. The document concludes that techniques are needed to minimize technical debt and detect intrusions amidst unknown threats.

Thin Slicing a Black Swan: When Less Is More
As infosec professionals we are swimming in prodigious amounts of data, but it isn’t making us better at our jobs, it seems to make us worse. In Verizon’s 2012 Data Breach Investigations Report, it was found that across organizations, an external party discovers 92% of breaches. We continue to desperately grasp at that straw of, “more data,” but what if this is simply information gluttony? Incident response's bloated model drives it closer to a form of security archeology rather than its promise of real-time relevance.
AI-Driven Logical Argumentation in Active Cyber Defense
Shawn Riley discusses using artificial intelligence techniques like symbolic AI (top-down) and non-symbolic AI (bottom-up) to automate logical argumentation in active cyber defense. Symbolic AI uses deductive reasoning from existing knowledge to generate explanations, while non-symbolic AI uses inductive reasoning from data to generate predictions. Cognitive playbooks capture human reasoning to automate the claim, evidence, reasoning framework. The techniques help automate different parts of the cyber OODA loop like sensing, sense-making, decision-making, and acting with feedback to improve defenses.

For detecting malicious URLs specifically, it describes collecting benign and malicious URL data, exploring and engineering features, using models like random forest and deep neural networks, and evaluating performance with metrics like F1 score and confusion matrices. Parameter tuning and model explainability are also covered. The overall goal is to build an intelligent ecosystem of ML models to provide superior cyber defense against evolving threats.
Ht t17
This document summarizes key lessons from a presentation on combating insider threats. The presentation was given by Kate Randal, an insider threat analyst at the FBI. Some of the main points made in the presentation include: (1) insider threats are often misunderstood and not just hackers, (2) combating insider threats requires a multidisciplinary approach rather than just cybersecurity, and (3) programs should focus on deterrence through measures like positive social engineering rather than just detection. The presentation emphasizes detecting insider threats is challenging and the science is still emerging.
