Web based applications are very common nowadays where almost every software can be accessible through a web browser in one form or the other. This paper proposes techniques to detect different threats related to web applications by using a hypervisorbased security architecture. The proposed architecture leverages the hypervisor’s visibility of the virtual machines’ runtime state and traffic flo...

Over the years, the focus has been on protecting network, host, database and standard applications from internal and external threats. The Rapid Application Development (RAD) process makes the web application extremely short and makes it difficult to eliminate the vulnerabilities. Here we study web application risk assessment technique called threat risk modeling to improve the security of the ...

Abstract Social movements often impose nontrivial costs on others against their wills. Civil disobedience is no exception. How can social in general, and civil particular, be justifiable despite this apparent wrong-making feature? We examine an intuitively plausible account—it fair that everyone should bear the burdens of tackling injustice. extend fairness-based argument for to defend some act...

Today’s critical infrastructures like the Power Grid are essentially physical processes controlled by computers connected by networks. Once these systems were highly isolated and secure against most security threats. However, in recent years they evolved in several aspects that greatly increased their exposure to cyber-attacks coming from the Internet. Firstly, the computers, networks and proto...
