Process mining aims to provide insights into the actual processes based on event data. These data are often recorded by information systems and are widely available. However, they often contain sensitive private information that should be…
Copyright protection is a major issue in distributing digital content. On the other hand, improvements to usability are sought by content users. In this paper, we propose a secure {\it traitor tracing scheme against key exposure (TTaKE)}…
Recently, various side-channel attacks on widely used encryption methods have been discovered. Extensive research is currently undertaken to develop new types of combined encryption and authentication mechanisms. Developers of security…
For sensitive text data to be shared among NLP researchers and practitioners, shared documents need to comply with data protection and privacy laws. There is hence a growing interest in automated approaches for text anonymization. However,…
Dataset obfuscation refers to techniques in which random noise is added to the entries of a given dataset, prior to its public release, to protect against leakage of private information. In this work, dataset obfuscation under two…
This work presents some novel techniques to enhance an encryption scheme motivated by classical McEliece cryptosystem. Contributions include: (1) using masking matrices to hide sensitive data, (2) allowing both legitimate parties to…
The proliferation of the Internet and mobile devices has resulted in malicious bots access to genuine resources and data. Bots may instigate phishing, unauthorized access, denial-of-service, and spoofing attacks to mention a few.…
Protecting the privacy of data-sets has become hugely important these days. Many real-life data-sets like income data, medical data need to be secured before making it public. However, security comes at the cost of losing some useful…
Data protection algorithms are becoming increasingly important to support modern business needs for facilitating data sharing and data monetization. Anonymization is an important step before data sharing. Several organizations leverage on…
Timed automata (TAs) are an extension of finite automata that can measure and react to the passage of time, providing the ability to handle real-time constraints using clocks. In 2009, Franck Cassez showed that the timed opacity problem,…
Information systems and data are necessary resources for several companies and individuals; but they likewise encounter numerous risks and dangers that can threaten their protection and value. Information security and information assurance…
The Internet has been weaponized to carry out cybercriminal activities at an unprecedented pace. The rising concerns for preserving the privacy of personal data while availing modern tools and technologies is alarming. End-to-end encrypted…
In the modern digital world users need to make privacy and security choices that have far-reaching consequences. Researchers are increasingly studying people's decisions when facing with privacy and security trade-offs, the pressing and…
Group communication implies a many-to-many communication and it goes beyond both one-to-one communication (i.e., unicast) and one-to-many communication (i.e., multicast). Unlike most user authentication protocols that authenticate a single…
Cameras are prevalent in our daily lives, and enable many useful systems built upon computer vision technologies such as smart cameras and home robots for service applications. However, there is also an increasing societal concern as the…
As audio deepfakes transition from research artifacts to widely available commercial tools, robust biometric authentication faces pressing security threats in high-stakes industries. This paper presents a systematic empirical evaluation of…
Emails are used every day for communication, and many countries and organisations mostly use email for official communications. It is highly valued and recognised for confidential conversations and transactions in day-to-day business. The…
Deepfake is a deep learning-based technique that makes it easy to change or modify images and videos. In investigations and court, visual evidence is commonly employed, but these pieces of evidence may now be suspect due to technological…
A basic model for key agreement with biometric or physical identifiers is extended to include measurements of a hidden source through a general broadcast channel (BC). An inner bound for strong secrecy, maximum key rate, and minimum…
Attribute inference - the process of analyzing publicly available data in order to uncover hidden information - has become a major threat to privacy, given the recent technological leap in machine learning. One way to tackle this threat is…
