The New York City (NYC) youth shelter system provides housing, counseling, and other support services to runaway and homeless youth and young adults (RHY). These resources reduce RHYs vulnerability to human trafficking, yet most shelters…
With the proliferation of edge devices, there is a significant increase in attack surface on these devices. The decentralized deployment of threat intelligence on edge devices, coupled with adaptive machine learning techniques such as the…
Wireless sensor networks have profound effects on many application fields like security management which need an immediate and fast system reaction. Indeed, the monitoring of a dangerous product warehouse is a major issue in chemical…
The smartphone usage among people is increasing rapidly. With the phenomenal growth of smartphone use, smartphone theft is also increasing. This paper proposes a model to secure smartphones from theft as well as provides options to access a…
Real-time crowdsourced maps such as Waze provide timely updates on traffic, congestion, accidents and points of interest. In this paper, we demonstrate how lack of strong location authentication allows creation of software-based {\em Sybil…
Trustworthy operation of our national critical infrastructures, such as the electricity grid, against adversarial parties and accidental failures requires constant and secure monitoring capabilities. In this paper, Eyephone is presented to…
The rapid aging of global populations has created an urgent need for intelligent healthcare monitoring systems to ensure the safety of elderly individuals living independently. Existing cloud-centric platforms face critical limitations,…
The growing presence of IoT devices in academic environments has increased operational complexity and exposed security weaknesses, especially in academic institutions without unified policies for registration, monitoring, and incident…
Emergency Services Communication Systems (ESCS) are evolving into Internet Protocol based communication networks, promising enhancements to their function, availability, and resilience. This increase in complexity and cyber-attack surface…
Recent cyber incidents and the push for zero trust security underscore the necessity of monitoring host-level events. However, current host-level intrusion detection systems (IDS) lack the ability to correlate alerts and coordinate a…
Advanced persistent threats (APTs) are sophisticated cyber attacks that can remain undetected for extended periods, making their mitigation particularly challenging. Given their persistence, significant effort is required to detect them and…
Natural disasters often disrupt communication networks and severely hamper emergency response and disaster management. Existing solutions, such as portable communication units and cloud-based network architectures, have improved disaster…
Mobile devices have shown to be very useful during and post disaster. If the communication infrastructure breaks down, however, they become almost useless as most services rely on Internet connectivity. Building post-disaster networks based…
Sophisticated cyber attacks present significant challenges for organizations in detecting and preventing such threats. To address this critical need for advanced defense mechanisms, we propose an Ensemble Defense System (EDS). An EDS is a…
Natural and man-made disasters have been causing destruction and distress to humanity all over the world. In these scenarios, communication infrastructures are the most affected entities making emergency response operations extremely…
Social networking services have became an important communication channel in time of emergency. The aim of this study is to create a machine learning language model that is able to investigate if a person or area was in danger or not. The…
We present the Civique system for emergency detection in urban areas by monitoring micro blogs like Tweets. The system detects emergency related events, and classifies them into appropriate categories like "fire", "accident", "earthquake",…
Technology evolves quickly. Low-cost and ready-to-connect devices are designed to provide new services and applications. Smart grids or smart healthcare systems are some examples of these applications, all of which are in the context of…
Interdisciplinary application fields, such as automotive, industrial applications or field robotics show an increasing need for reliable and resilient wireless communication even under high load conditions. These mission-critical…
Humanitarian organizations distribute aid to people affected by armed conflicts or natural disasters. Digitalization has the potential to increase the efficiency and fairness of aid-distribution systems, and recent work by Wang et al. has…
