Humans - the weakest and strongest link in securing systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Humans design, operate and are the net beneficiaries of most systems. However humans are fallible and make mistakes. At the same time humans are adaptable and resourceful in both designing systems and correcting them when they go wrong. These characteristics mean that humans can be both the strongest and the weakest link in system security. The aim of this paper is to look at how industrial control systems can use their human actors to build secure systems even noting the fallibility of the underlying machine.

متن کاملAirport security human factors: From the weakest to the strongest link in airport security screening
Airport security screening is a challenging task. In fact, according to several experts, the human operator is often the weakest link of the security system. In this article, the results of human factor studies conducted over the last five years involving several international airports in four European countries are summarized. It is shown how human operators can in fact become the strongest li...

In this study, a Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is utilized to extract interpretable and compact fuzzy rule bases for modeling nonlinear Multi-input Multi-output (MIMO) systems. In the process of non- linear system identi cation, structure selection, parameter estimation, model performance and model validation are important objectives. Furthermore, se- curing low-level and high-level ...
متن کاملwin and sin : Predicate Transformers for Concurrency LESLIE LAMPORT
The weakest liberal precondition and strongest postcondition predicate transformers are generalized to the weakest invariant and strongest invariant. These new predicate transformers are useful for reasoning about concurrent programs containing operations in which the grain of atomicity is unspecified. They can also be used to replace behavioral arguments with more rigorous assertional ones.
