SQL injection remains a major threat to web applications, as existing defenses often fail against obfuscation and evolving attacks because of neglecting the request-response context. This paper presents a context-enriched SQL injection…
Deception is being increasingly explored as a cyberdefense strategy to protect operational systems. We are studying implementation of deception-in-depth strategies with initially three logical layers: network, host, and data. We draw ideas…
Electronic bait (honeypots) are network resources whose value consists of being attacked and compromised. These are often computers which do not have a task in the network, but are otherwise indestinguishable from regular computers. Such…
Passive operating system fingerprinting reveals valuable information to the defenders of heterogeneous private networks; at the same time, attackers can use fingerprinting to reconnoiter networks, so defenders need obfuscation techniques to…
Honeyfiles are a particularly useful type of honeypot: fake files deployed to detect and infer information from malicious behaviour. This paper considers the challenge of naming honeyfiles so they are camouflaged when placed amongst real…
The proliferation of insecure Internet-connected devices gave rise to the IoT botnets which can grow very large rapidly and may perform high-impact cyber-attacks. The related studies for tackling IoT botnets are concerned with either…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly vulnerable to multi-turn jailbreak attacks, where adversaries iteratively elicit harmful behaviors that bypass single-turn safety filters. Existing defenses predominantly rely on passive…
Although sufficient authentication mechanisms were enhanced by the use of two or more factors that resulted in new multi factor authentication schemes, more sophisticated and targeted attacks have shown they are also vulnerable. This…
Lateral movement of advanced persistent threats has posed a severe security challenge. Due to the stealthy and persistent nature of the lateral movement, defenders need to consider time and spatial locations holistically to discover latent…
Privacy is of the utmost concern when it comes to releasing data to third parties. Data owners rely on anonymization approaches to safeguard the released datasets against re-identification attacks. However, even with strict anonymization in…
We performed the first systematic study of a new attack on Ethereum that steals cryptocurrencies. The attack is due to the unprotected JSON-RPC endpoints existed in Ethereum nodes that could be exploited by attackers to transfer the Ether…
In recent years, fingerprint recognition systems have made remarkable advancements in the field of biometric security as it plays an important role in personal, national and global security. In spite of all these notable advancements, the…
Honeypots play a crucial role in implementing various cyber deception techniques as they possess the capability to divert attackers away from valuable assets. Careful strategic placement of honeypots in networks should consider not only…
Ethereum holds multiple billions of U.S. dollars in the form of Ether cryptocurrency and ERC-20 tokens, with millions of deployed smart contracts algorithmically operating these funds. Unsurprisingly, the security of Ethereum smart…
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are extensively used in critical infrastructures ensuring efficient, reliable, and continuous operations. However, their increasing connectivity and addition of advanced features make them vulnerable to…
A recent defense proposes to inject "honeypots" into neural networks in order to detect adversarial attacks. We break the baseline version of this defense by reducing the detection true positive rate to 0\% and the detection AUC to 0.02,…
In this paper, we provide an overview of fingerprint sensing methods used for authentication. We analyze the current fingerprint sensing technologies, from algorithmic, as well as from hardware perspectives. We then focus on methods to…
Deceptive patterns (DPs) are user interface designs deliberately crafted to manipulate users into unintended decisions, often by exploiting cognitive biases for the benefit of companies or services. While numerous studies have explored ways…
Computer security has been plagued by increasing formidable, dynamic, hard-to-detect, hard-to-predict, and hard-to-characterize hacking techniques. Such techniques are very often deployed in self-propagating worms capable of automatically…
In today's world, computer networks have become vulnerable to numerous attacks. In both wireless and wired networks, one of the most common attacks is man-in-the-middle attacks, within which session hijacking, context confusion attacks have…
