Insider threats are one of today's most challenging cybersecurity issues that are not well addressed by commonly employed security solutions. Despite several scientific works published in this domain, we argue that the field can benefit…
Cyber cognitive attacks leverage disruptive innovations (DIs) to exploit psychological biases and manipulate decision-making processes. Emerging technologies, such as AI-driven disinformation and synthetic media, have accelerated the scale…
The topic will focus on the U.S. Department of Defense strategy towards improving their network security defenses for the department and the steps they have taken at the agency level where components under DOD such as The Defense…
This paper is devoted to measuring the security of cyber networks under advanced persistent threats (APTs). First, an APT-based cyber attack-defense process is modeled as an individual-level dynamical system. Second, the dynamic model is…
We investigate the role of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity by evaluating how machine learning techniques can detect malicious network activity and identify potential information leakage in cryptographic implementations. We conduct…
Threats targeting cyberspace are becoming more prominent and intelligent day by day. This inherently leads to a dire demand for continuous security validation and testing. Using this paper, we aim to provide a holistic and precise security…
The prevalence of cyberattacks on Industrial Control Systems (ICS) has highlighted the necessity for robust security measures and incident response to protect critical infrastructure. This is prominent when Operational Technology (OT)…
Given the increase in cybercrime, cybersecurity analysts (i.e. Defenders) are in high demand. Defenders must monitor an organization's network to evaluate threats and potential breaches into the network. Adversary simulation is commonly…
Motivated by the recent cyber attack on the Ukrainian power grid, we study cyber attacks on power grids that affect both the physical infrastructure and the data at the control center. In particular, we assume that an adversary attacks an…
The first-ever Ukraine cyberattack on power grid has proven its devastation by hacking into their critical cyber assets. With administrative privileges accessing substation networks/local control centers, one intelligent way of coordinated…
In this study, we examine the role of Twitter as a first line of defense against misinformation by tracking the public engagement with, and the platforms response to, 500 tweets concerning the RussoUkrainian conflict which were identified…
On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. In the days that followed, reports kept flooding in from layman to news anchors of a conflict quickly escalating into war. Russia faced immediate backlash and condemnation from the world at…
The development of artificial general intelligence is considered by many to be inevitable. What such intelligence does after becoming aware is not so certain. To that end, research suggests that the likelihood of artificial general…
Critical Infrastructure (CI) is prone to cyberattacks. Several techniques have been developed to protect CI against such attacks. In this work, we describe a honeypot based on a cyber twin for a water treatment plant. The honeypot is…
The latency reduction between the discovery of vulnerabilities, the build-up and dissemination of cyber-attacks has put significant pressure on cybersecurity professionals. For that, security researchers have increasingly resorted to…
The workshop will focus on the application of AI to problems in cyber security. Cyber systems generate large volumes of data, utilizing this effectively is beyond human capabilities. Additionally, adversaries continue to develop new…
Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) encompasses a nation's essential assets that are fundamental to the operation of society and the economy, ensuring the provision of vital utilities such as energy, water, transportation, and…
Both parasites in biological systems and adversarial forces in cybersecurity are often perceived as threats: disruptive elements that must be eliminated. However, these entities play a critical role in revealing systemic weaknesses, driving…
Insider threats are one of the most damaging risk factors for the IT systems and infrastructure of a company or an organization; identification of insider threats has prompted the interest of the world academic research community, with…
To be prepared against cyberattacks, most organizations resort to security information and event management systems to monitor their infrastructures. These systems depend on the timeliness and relevance of the latest updates, patches and…
