چکیده
Cyberspace is a complex dimension of both enabling and inhibiting data flows in electronic data networks. Current-generation intrusion-detection systems (IDSes) are not technologically advanced enough to create the situational knowledge required to monitor and protect these networks effectively. Next-generation IDSes will fuse data, combining short-term sensor data with long-term knowledge databases to create cyberspace situational awareness. This article offers a glimpse into the foggy crystal ball of future ID systems.

Joining Security Realms: A Single Login for NetWare and Kerberos
Accommodating disjoint security realms is a challenge for administrators who have to maintain duplicate data sets and for users who need to recall multiple pass phrases, yet joining security realms together can expose one realm to the weaknesses of the other. In this paper, we compare the Kerberos and NetWare security realms, examine methods of joining the two realms under a single login, and p...

ISO17799 (formerly BS17799) is a standard for heuristic security management in organizations, and ISO20000 (formerly BS15000) is the ITIL reference document. Both of these are high-level, handwaving guidelines about service and business operations. True enough, they pay lip service to configuration management, but the configuration management they refer to is not the same as discussed in ;login...

This paper describes a set of experiments we conducted to answer the question: just how prevalent is Internet interception? That is, if we sent our most sensitive information (bank information, passwords, etc.) in the clear, should we expect to regret it? For a little over a year, we sent different types of Internet traffic over unencrypted channels between multiple clients and servers located ...
متن کاملThe Cause of All Evils: Assessing Causality Between User Actions and Malware Activity
Malware samples are created at a pace that makes it difficult for analysis to keep up. When analyzing an unknown malware sample, it is important to assess its capabilities to determine how much damage it can make to its victims, and perform prioritization decisions on which threats should be dealt with first. In a corporate environment, for example, a malware infection that is able to steal fin...
متن کاملTowards Reliable Storage of 56-bit Secrets in Human Memory
Challenging the conventional wisdom that users cannot remember cryptographically-strong secrets, we test the hypothesis that users can learn randomly-assigned 56bit codes (encoded as either 6 words or 12 characters) through spaced repetition. We asked remote research participants to perform a distractor task that required logging into a website 90 times, over up to two weeks, with a password of...
