IRJET-An Algorithmic Approach for Remote Data Uploading and Integrity Checkin...IRJET Journal
This document proposes an algorithm called ID-PUIC for remote data uploading and integrity checking in public clouds. It aims to address security issues when clients store sensitive data in public clouds, which they do not fully control. The proposed system uses a proxy to upload client data and perform remote integrity checks with the public cloud server. It introduces a protocol for the proxy to generate tags for file blocks and upload them along with the data for integrity verification. The ID-PUIC algorithm is more efficient for integrity checking than existing solutions as it ignores certificate management and uses bilinear pairings for security. The document outlines the system model, data flow, modules including key generation, tag generation and proofs to check integrity remotely between the client and public cloud server

2) PEPD-PB involves multiple organizational peers participating in insurance claiming and adjudication. It uses smart contracts to store claims on the blockchain to improve transparency, speed, and security.
3) The proposed system is compared to existing systems, which are manual processes that require data to be fetched from each organization separately, resulting in delays. The blockchain framework allows real-time data sharing without compromising data integrity.
ADAPTIVE AUTHENTICATION: A CASE STUDY FOR UNIFIED AUTHENTICATION PLATFORM csandit
This document presents the results of a case study on an adaptive authentication system. The study analyzed over 171,000 login records from over 1,200 users collected over 254 days. It found that most logins occurred during standard working hours and from within the organization's internal network. When analyzing attribute factors like location, time, browser and operating system, it found most logins originated from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and the most used browser and operating system combination was Chrome on Windows 7. The study aims to evaluate the adaptive authentication system's ability to determine risk levels based on normal user behavior profiles.
IRJET- A Survey for Block Chaining based Cyber Security System for Fiscal Dev...IRJET Journal
This document discusses cyber security for GPRS terminals used in fiscal devices like cash registers and printers that send financial data to tax authorities. It proposes using blockchain technology to encrypt the data transmitted from these devices via GPRS terminals to increase security. Currently, most fiscal devices transmit plaintext data without encryption via GPRS terminals. The document surveys previous generations of fiscal devices and their vulnerabilities. It suggests an improved design for new or existing fiscal devices that incorporates an internal device like GPRS to transmit encrypted data directly to tax authority servers without additional services. This would help address security issues with the current systems.
The audit will review UNCCG's enterprise data warehouse platform over several phases:
1) A mobilization phase to develop audit plans and interview lists.
2) An execution phase to conduct interviews, review documents, and test controls.
3) A reporting phase to draft and finalize audit reports with findings and recommendations.
The audit will focus on data warehouse management, operations, and business integration, and assess risks relating to regulatory compliance, privacy, vendor access, and system availability. Regular communication with management will be maintained throughout the engagement.
This document proposes a system for multi-factor authentication using one-time passwords (OTPs) generated on a user's mobile device without needing an internet or SMS connection. The system would work by registering user devices based on identifiers like IMEI and IMSI numbers. During login, the server would send random index variables to the mobile app to generate an OTP using those values, a secret seed derived from the device identifiers, and cryptographic hashing functions. If the server-generated and mobile app-generated OTPs match, access would be granted. This approach aims to securely generate OTPs offline to strengthen authentication without relying on SMS or internet connections.
This document provides guidelines and information about conducting facility environmental audits. It discusses the purpose of internal audits to evaluate risk management and overall health of company processes. The document provides templates, checklists and tools to help with internal audits. It also discusses data privacy management, IT risk management, network security, and compliance with standards like ISO and regulations like HIPAA.
Dynamic Based face authentication using Video-Based MethodIRJET Journal
This document proposes a dynamic video-based face authentication system to address security issues with existing image-based systems. The proposed system uses video captured at entrances to premises compared frame-by-frame to videos stored in an AWS bucket database, rather than single images. This allows for more secure authentication by checking a live video stream against registered users' videos. If an unregistered user is detected, an alert is generated to security staff for verification before access is granted or denied, improving security over static image checks. The system aims to prevent unauthorized access through hacking of image profiles.
The Federal Information Security Management ActMichelle Singh
The document discusses the importance of access controls and audit controls for organizations. It notes that traditionally applications and data were stored on local servers, but with distributed computing and more users, security issues increased. Access control models like mandatory access control and discretionary access control were used to secure data and control access, but role-based access control (RBAC) was proposed as a more flexible model. However, with growing user numbers, security has become a bottleneck. The paper describes access control and the RBAC model, its limitations, and proposes future research to reduce security risks with large user numbers in cloud computing environments.
Securing your IT infrastructure with SOC-NOC collaboration TWPSridhar Karnam
The document discusses integrating log management with IT operations to improve security and incident management. Log management provides universal collection, analysis and long-term retention of log data from all sources. Integrating this with IT operations tools allows security incidents to be detected and addressed through the IT operations workflow. This provides better visibility into the root causes of issues and their business impacts. A case study of HP-IT is presented where they integrated log management with their IT operations solution to manage security incidents and the complex IT infrastructure supporting 350,000 employees.
The document discusses the importance of information security and PCI DSS compliance for businesses. It outlines the key elements of an effective IT security program including risk assessment, access control policies, data security policies, and response plans. It describes the PCI DSS framework and different merchant levels and self-assessment questionnaires (SAQs) required based on the number of credit card transactions processed annually. Compliant organizations experience fewer data breaches than non-compliant ones.

The document discusses how information technology has transformed banking and the audit environment. It provides examples of different types of banking applications like partial branch automation, total branch automation, and core banking solutions. It also discusses the impact of IT on internal controls and auditing. The key challenges for auditors in a computerized environment include the lack of paper trails, evaluating IT controls, and ensuring integrity of electronic evidence. Auditors must have adequate knowledge of IT systems to understand associated risks and audit banks' IT environments effectively.
The document describes a proposed UID secure travel identity system that would provide Indian citizens with a unique identification number linked to biometric data. This would allow citizens to apply for a passport or driver's license digitally without agents. It would also let law enforcement view citizen data and notify airports if someone is not allowed to travel. The system would integrate various government departments and applications into a single platform to streamline processes and reduce delays. It analyzes the limitations of existing systems and outlines the features and methodology of the proposed centralized UID system to provide a digital identity for all government transactions.
CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Introduction
C&A Web provides the DOJ IT Security Program, Program Officials and IT Security
managers with a web-based secure network capability to assess, document, manage and report on
the status of IT security risk assessments and implementation of Federal and DOJ mandated IT
security control standards and policies.
FISMA emphasizes the need for each Federal agency to develop, document, and
implement an enterprise-wide program to provide information security for the information and
information systems that support the operations and assets of the agency including those
provided or managed by another agency, contractor, or other sources.
The Department’s IT Security Program has been elevated and strengthened over the past
few years. The DOJ IT Security Program now takes a Department-wide view of its information
security program. Fundamental in this initiative was the need to develop and implement a
coordinated and effective IT security program that is continuous, interactive, and fully integrated
within IT architecture and investment processes.
The C&A Web was collaboratively developed to be implemented within DOJ
components as a streamlining initiative to achieve FISMA compliance and reporting
requirements. C&A Web is a fundamental element of the DOJ IT Security Program enterprise
architecture. It is an enterprise-wide tool for leveraging guidance from the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and industry best
practices to assist the DOJ components in their IT security self-assessments and support
management of FISMA reporting requirements.
C&A Web fully supports the implementation of the policy and procedures in
Department’s IT Security Program. The networked version of the required capability is required
to support Department IT security program goals, system inventory and POA&M management
process, FISMA reporting, required DOJ OCIO oversight responsibilities, and support of
certification and accreditation and continuous monitoring process. With the C&A Web’s
functionality, system owners are allowed timely access to security information about their
systems. The employment of a networked capability for this information posting and retrieval
will facilitate access by Department managers.
C&A Web is critical to both C&A personnel and DOJ IT Security Program managers.
C&A assessors will rely on the delivery of timely, detailed information and policy tool support
related to IT Standards implementations. The use of the C&A Web application will enable
system owners and security managers to obtain system performance information from a
multitude of security related processes, while enabling the department and components to meet
mandated enterprise and system reporting requirements.

Information shared with external recipients is high-level statistics data, and not the actual
raw data itself (such as the privacy data, such as names, phone numbers, etc.). Information is
shared with the following external recipients:
10. Page 10
• Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Congress: OMB and Congress
receive the following reports which include high-level statistical information
based on information stored and processed by the C&A Web:
o Quarterly and annual reporting as required by Federal Information
Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA)
o Annual reporting as required by OMB Circular A-123, Management's
Responsibility for Internal Control
• Contractor Operated Systems or Facilities: Contractor or contractor operated
facilities that are involved with supporting DOJ systems that contains/processes
DOJ data in personally identifiable form shall fall subject to the same technical,
administrative and operational security controls as DOJ operated systems or
facilities. Hence, applicable contractors are required to access C&A Web for

Section 6.0
Notice
The following questions are directed at notice to the individual of the scope of information
collected, the opportunity to consent to uses of said information, and the opportunity to decline to provide
information.
6.1 Was any form of notice provided to the individual prior to
collection of information? If yes, please provide a copy of
the notice as an appendix. (A notice may include a posted
privacy policy, a Privacy Act notice on forms, or a system
of records notice published in the Federal Register Notice.)
If notice was not provided, why not?
<< ADD Answer Here >>
6.2 Do individuals have an opportunity and/or right to decline
to provide information?
Generally, individuals do not have the right to decline to provide information. The information
gathered about individuals is required for two related but slightly different purposes, depending
on the role in which the individual is acting:
FOR C&A Web SYSTEM USERS:
• As part of the standard procedures for requesting an account on the C&A Web system, a
federal employee or contractor working for the DOJ must provide certain personal
information to enable other users and administrators of the system to contact them as
necessary. Email addresses are also required to enable to system to send automatic alerts
to users.
12. Page 12
• Any DOJ intranet or C&A Web user has already become familiar with and understands
the Department of Justice (DOJ) Computer System User Information Technology (IT)
Security General Rules of Behavior. DOJ Intranet users have agreed to the General
Rules of Behavior, along with being familiar with and understanding them.
o The current version is Version 2.0 dated May 23, 2005.
o These rules extend to all DOJ personnel (employees and contractors) and any
other persons using DOJ computing resources or accessing DOJ systems under
formally established agreements.
o All users should be fully aware of, and abide by, DOJ security policies as well as
related federal policy contained in the Privacy Act, Freedom of Information Act,
and DOJ Records Management Regulations.
FOR Personnel with IT Security responsibilities (government employees, government
contractors at government facilities or contractor operated facilities):
• Any individual that is involved in any IT Security responsibilities relating to a DOJ
information system is subject to having privacy information about them captured and
recorded in the C&A Web database. The individuals may not be aware that the
information was captured in this fashion. Typically, anyone performing in an IT Security
responsible position is subject to being interviewed during the system assessment
procedure. To adequately document the status of meeting implementation of any security
controls, evidentiary data is captured about the testing procedure. This could typically
involve the collection of information about the tester interviewees that will have their

8.9 Privacy Impact Analysis: Given access and security
controls, what privacy risks were identified and describe how
they were mitigated.
Threat: Unauthorized Access to the C&A Web system
Risk: Low
Mitigation/Countermeasures:
• Security controls. The C&A Web is a web-based system hosted within the Justice Data
Center- Washington in a fully Certified and Accredited (C&A) DOJ intranet production
environment according to generally accepted DOJ standards and guidelines for C&A of
systems and networks for the department.
o A total of 74 security controls are applicable for the C&A Web system.
o A total of 69 security controls are inherited for the system.
o Twenty security controls are not applicable according to the system categorization
and scoping of the C&A Web Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM).
o Authentication/Access controls.
ƒ A total of 10 AC family security controls are applicable for the C&A Web
system.
ƒ A total of 10 other AC family security controls are inherited by the C&A
Web system from the GSS production environment.
ƒ Any C&A Web or intranet user is required to be familiar with the DOJ
General Rules of Behavior for information system use.
ƒ Initial access to the C&A Web online system is limited to authorized users
with active C&A Web accounts on various closed Sensitive But
16. Page 16
Unclassified (SBU) local area networks (LAN) amongst the various DOJ
components. Multi-layered security is in effect by virtue of the fact that
users must first logon to JCON (or other DOJ desktop/intra-networks) and
then access the C&A Web after a successful LAN authentication. An
unauthorized user would be need to have knowledge of both
userID/password combinations in order to gain access to the C&A Web.
o Role-based access controls. Access to specific data is restricted by user
classification (as assigned by roles and privileges).
ƒ This procedure enforces access control to information with privacy
implication to members of an assigned role as determined appropriate by
the user’s supervisor and profiled accordingly in the C&A Web system by
the system administrator(s).
ƒ Roles and privileges can be assigned at the component, system, control
and user levels.
ƒ Each user is profiled by approval authorities that then notify the C&A
Web system administrator of the appropriate roles and privileges
authorized for each individual (user) for proper security settings in the
account management function of the C&A Web.
ƒ C&A User accounts can be created, updated, enabled and disabled only by
authorized system administrators, upon receiving input from authorized
approval authorities. To perform these functions, the system
administrator(s) must be identified and profiled for such privileges in the
C&A Web.
ƒ System Administrators will:
• Ensure that the certification agent or CA-appointed agent validates
system security at least annually.
• Make the computer(s) available for periodic reviews of the security
configuration by independent testers.
• Ensure that under no circumstances the same person serves as the
system administrator and ISSO for the same system.
ƒ Managers will:
• Ensure that staff has access to, and sufficient time to complete, the
DOJ Computer Security Awareness Training (CSAT), or other
annual IT security training offered by offices/bureaus/components
not utilizing CSAT.
• Ensure that staff has access to, and are aware of, all existing DOJ
policies and procedures (DOJ Order 2640.2(series), DOJ IT
Security Standards) relevant to the use of DOJ information
technology resources.
• Ensure that staff follows system security policies, guidelines and
procedures (DOJ Order 2640.2(series), DOJ IT Security
Standards).
17. Page 17
o Audit controls.
ƒ A total of 6 AU family security controls are applicable for the C&A Web
system.
ƒ C&A Web data input/changes can be tracked through database logging
and auditing functions. Auditing logs are designed to be checked on a
routine basis and monitored by system administrators. Access and
changes to C&A Web data is captured in audit logs that are assigned to
privileged individuals with appropriate system roles to monitor the audit
logs.
Threat: Remote Access to the C&A Web system data
Risk: Low
Mitigation/Countermeasures:
• Selectively authorized and established remote access accounts for any remote
C&A Web system access follow established DOJ policies and procedures for
issuance of individual JSRA accounts. Remote access is only permitted with
valid authorization by supervisors and issuance of a JSRA account authorizing
remote access privileges.
• Remote users are informed that they too must have a responsibility to take
measures to protect the C&A Web system data they access from their remote
site. Remote users must do everything they can to protect data from being
compromised or captured on their computers, especially when using personal
computers at home. These precautions may include:
o Installation of operating system and application software (i.e. Internet
Explorer) updates regularly. Many of these updates are issued to fix
security problems which have been identified.
o Install and use anti-virus software and personal firewalls and keep this
software updated.
o Do not store your various User-IDs and passwords in files on your
computer.
o After using your browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, etc.) to access a site
where you process sensitive information close all of your browser windows
and restart a new browser session. Sometimes the browser can hold that
information in memory (e.g. cache, etc.) and some websites know where
to look to find it.
o Be very careful when installing software that gives others access to your
computer. Remote service software or peer-to-peer software used for file
sharing can create unintended openings into your computer that outsider
can use if the software is not configured correctly.
18. Page 18
Threat: Unauthorized Disclosure of the C&A Web system data
Risk: Low
Mitigation/Countermeasures:
• Reports can only be printed by authorized users and authorized users have
accepted rules of behavior, which includes the proper handling of sensitive
system security paperwork for SBU system data, whether it is a physical printout
or access to the system.
Section 9.0
Technology
The following questions are directed at critically analyzing the selection process for any
technologies utilized by the system, including system hardware, RFID, biometrics and other technology.
9.1 Were competing technologies evaluated to assess and
compare their ability to effectively achieve system goals?
<< ADD Answer Here >>
9.2 Describe how data integrity, privacy, and security were
analyzed as part of the decisions made for your system.
<< ADD Answer Here >>
9.3 What design choices were made to enhance privacy?
<< ADD Answer Here >>
Conclusion
The C&A Web application is used to process, store, and transmit information that
supports the DOJ IT Security program. Securing this information and assuring its proper use is
critical to the success of this DOJ and ITSS mission and related operations.
The C&A Web is secured via access authorization, authentication rules, and audit
controls. These technical controls are supplemented by procedural controls such as Account
Management Reviews, Rules of Behavior, Confidentiality Agreements, and Security Awareness
and Training to mitigate risks regarding unauthorized access and subsequent potential privacy
19. Page 19
violations. The proposed Defense-in-Depth implementation will increase the robustness of C&A
Web security services, i.e., access controls, confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation.
ITSS has consistently regarded the privacy ramifications of information that is processed,
stored, and transmitted in the C&A Web application as critical in supporting the DOJ IT Security
Program. The C&A Web solution is aligned with supporting all of DOJ’s security objectives via
application of FISMA requirements and industry Best Practices. Management review, continual
enhancement, and FISMA-mandated continuous monitoring of C&A Web technical and
procedural controls are of the utmost importance in maintaining application hardening and
continuity of operations.
