Digital forensic evidence acquisition speed is traditionally limited by two main factors: the read speed of the storage device being investigated, i.e., the read speed of the disk, memory, remote storage, mobile device, etc.), and the write…
With the rising number of IoT devices, the security of such devices becomes increasingly important. Remote attestation (RA) is a distinct security service that allows a remote verifer to reason about the state of an untrusted remote prover…
The proliferation of sophisticated image editing tools and generative artificial intelligence models has made verifying the authenticity of digital images increasingly challenging, with important implications for journalism, forensic…
Digital forensic relies on validated tools and established procedures, yet the underlying operating systems, applications, and analysis tools evolve rapidly. This evolution can cause artifact behavior and tool outputs to drift, silently…
The ChatGPT Windows application offers better user interaction in the Windows operating system (OS) by enhancing productivity and streamlining the workflow of ChatGPT's utilization. However, there are potential misuses associated with this…
Distinguishing manipulated from real images is becoming increasingly difficult as new sophisticated image forgery approaches come out by the day. Naive classification approaches based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) show excellent…
Research on localization and perception for Autonomous Driving is mainly focused on camera and LiDAR datasets, rarely on radar data. Manually labeling sparse radar point clouds is challenging. For a dataset generation, we propose the cross…
The reliability of cyber forensic evidence acquisition is strongly influenced by the underlying operating systems, Windows, macOS, and Linux - due to inherent variations in file system structures, encryption protocols, and forensic tool…
Remote attestation is a security technique through which a remote trusted party (i.e., Verifier) checks the trustworthiness of a potentially untrusted device (i.e., Prover). In the Internet of Things (IoT) systems, the existing remote…
Case-hindering, multi-year digital forensic evidence backlogs have become commonplace in law enforcement agencies throughout the world. This is due to an ever-growing number of cases requiring digital forensic investigation coupled with the…
Remote attestation schemes have been utilized for assuring the integrity of a network node to a remote verifier. In recent years, a number of remote attestation schemes have been proposed for various contexts such as cloud computing,…
Telemetry is the automated sensing and collection of data from a remote device. It is often used to provide better services for users. Microsoft uses telemetry to periodically collect information about Windows systems and to help improve…
We propose Remote Attestation with TOCTOU Avoidance (RATA): a provably secure approach to address the RA TOCTOU problem. With RATA, even malware that erases itself before execution of the next RA, can not hide its ephemeral presence. RATA…
The main goal of this research project is to evaluate the effectiveness and speed of open-source forensic tools for digital evidence collecting from various Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. The project will create and configure many IoT…
Remote attestation (RA) is a popular means of detecting malware in embedded and IoT devices. RA is usually realized as an interactive protocol, whereby a trusted party -- verifier -- measures integrity of a potentially compromised remote…
In recent decades, the RAFT distributed consensus algorithm has become a main pillar of the distributed systems ecosystem, ensuring data consistency and fault tolerance across multiple nodes. Although the fact that RAFT is well known for…
To keep a system secure, all devices in the system need to be benign. To avoid malicious and/or compromised devices, network access control such as authentication using a credential and remote attestation based on trusted hardware has been…
In distributed systems, trust decisions are made on the basis of integrity evidence generated via remote attestation. Examples of the kinds of evidence that might be collected are boot time image hash values; fingerprints of initialization…
Simulation is an invaluable tool for radio-frequency system designers that enables rapid prototyping of various algorithms for imaging, target detection, classification, and tracking. However, simulating realistic radar scans is a…
Collective remote attestation (CRA) is a security service that aims to efficiently identify compromised (often low-powered) devices in a (heterogeneous) network. The last few years have seen an extensive growth in CRA protocol proposals,…
