Risk-based authentication (RBA) extends authentication mechanisms to make them more robust against account takeover attacks, such as those using stolen passwords. RBA is recommended by NIST and NCSC to strengthen password-based…
Many organizations were forced to quickly transition to the work-from-anywhere (WFA) model as a necessity to continue with their operations and remain in business despite the restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many decisions…
Choosing authentication schemes for a specific purpose is challenging for service providers, developers, and researchers. Previous ratings of technical and objective aspects showed that available schemes all have strengths and limitations.…
Cybersecurity is very essential for Mobile Transactions to complete seamlessly. Mobile Commerce (Mcom.) is the very basic transaction type, which is very commonly used (2 in 5 people uses mobile as transaction medium), To secure this there…
Text password has served as the most popular method for user authentication so far, and is not likely to be totally replaced in foreseeable future. Password authentication offers several desirable properties (e.g., low-cost, highly…
Information security awareness (ISA) is a practice focused on the set of skills, which help a user successfully mitigate a social engineering attack. Previous studies have presented various methods for evaluating the ISA of both PC and…
Many software products are composed of components integrated from other teams or external parties. Each additional link in a software product's supply chain increases the risk of the injection of malicious behavior. To improve supply chain…
Security issues are the most challenging problems in cloud computing environments as an emerging technology. Regarding to this importance, an efficient and reliable user authentication and data protection model has been presented in this…
This work focuses on the problem of detection and prevention of stolen and misused secrets (such as private keys) for authentication toward centralized services. We propose a solution for such a problem based on the blockchain-based…
The research of artificial intelligence is undergoing a paradigm shift from prioritizing model innovations over benchmark scores towards emphasizing problem definition and rigorous real-world evaluation. As the field enters the "second…
Single-factor password-based authentication is generally the norm to access on-line Web-sites. While single-factor authentication is well known to be a weak form of authentication, a further concern arises when considering the possibility…
