In the past, online social networks (OSN) like Facebook and Twitter became powerful instruments for communication and networking. Unfortunately, they have also become a welcome target for socialbot attacks. Therefore, a deep understanding…
Context and Motivation Attack-Defense Trees (ADTs) are a graphical notation used to model and assess security requirements. ADTs are widely popular, as they can facilitate communication between different stakeholders involved in system…
The need for Emergency Management continually grows as the population and exposure to catastrophic failures increase. The ability to offer appropriate services at these emergency situations can be tackled through group communication…
Though online social network research has exploded during the past years, not much thought has been given to the exploration of the nature of social links. Online interactions have been interpreted as indicative of one social process or…
Graphical security models constitute a well-known, user-friendly way to represent the security of a system. These kinds of models are used by security experts to identify vulnerabilities and assess the security of a system. The manual…
Ability to effectively investigate indicators of compromise and associated network resources involved in cyber attacks is paramount not only to identify affected network resources but also to detect related malicious resources. Today, most…
Knowledge graphs store large numbers of relations efficiently, but they remain weak at representing a quieter difficulty: the meaning of a concept often shifts with the domain in which it is used. A triple such as Apple, instance-of,…
Ontology interoperability is one of the complicated issues that restricts the use of ontologies in knowledge graphs (KGs). Different ontologies with conflicting and overlapping concepts make it difficult to design, develop, and deploy an…
In applied mathematics and related disciplines, the modeling-simulation-optimization workflow is a prominent scheme, with mathematical models and numerical algorithms playing a crucial role. For these types of mathematical research data,…
In cybersecurity it is often the case that malicious or anomalous activity can only be detected by combining many weak indicators of compromise, any one of which may not raise suspicion when taken alone. The path that such indicators take…
Search Engine has become a major tool for searching any information from the World Wide Web (WWW). While searching the huge digital library available in the WWW, every effort is made to retrieve the most relevant results. But in WWW…
There are three approaches in the current social network analysis study: Graph Representation, Content Mining, and Semantic Analysis. Graph Representation has been used for analyzing social network topology, structural modeling,…
The Smart Grid (SG) is a cornerstone of modern society, providing the energy required to sustain billions of lives and thousands of industries. Unfortunately, as one of the most critical infrastructures of our World, the SG is an attractive…
Graph generative diffusion models have recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for generating complex graph structures, effectively capturing intricate dependencies and relationships within graph data. However, the privacy risks associated…
Cyber-physical systems integrate computation, communication, and physical capabilities to interact with the physical world and humans. Besides failures of components, cyber-physical systems are prone to malignant attacks, and specific…
Uncertainty, error, and similar complications add to the many challenges of cyber security. Various disciplines have developed methods for managing these complications, but applying these methods involves disambiguating overlapping…
The objective of knowledge graph embedding is to encode both entities and relations of knowledge graphs into continuous low-dimensional vector spaces. Previously, most works focused on symbolic representation of knowledge graph with…
Graph-based analyses have gained a lot of relevance in the past years due to their high potential in describing complex systems by detailing the actors involved, their relations and their behaviours. Nevertheless, in scenarios where these…
In operational technology (OT) contexts, containerised applications often require elevated privileges to access low-level network interfaces or perform administrative tasks such as application monitoring. These privileges reduce the default…
The increasing digitalization of the manufacturing domain requires adequate knowledge modeling to capture relevant information. Ontologies and Knowledge Graphs provide means to model and relate a wide range of concepts, problems, and…
