With the boom in metaverse-related projects in major areas of the public's life, the safety of users becomes a pressing concern. We believe that an international legal framework should be established to promote collaboration among nations,…
Digital Twins (DTs) are a conventional and well-known concept, proposed in 70s, that are popular in a broad spectrum of sciences, industry innovations, and consortium alliances. However, in the last few years, the growth of digital assets…
The majority of current web authentication is built on username/password. Unfortunately, password replacement offers more security, but it is difficult to use and expensive to deploy. In this paper, we propose a new mutual authentication…
Implicit authentication consists of a server authenticating a user based on the user's usage profile, instead of/in addition to relying on something the user explicitly knows (passwords, private keys, etc.). While implicit authentication…
