Semantic Web is maturing day by day and data and information integration is growing and becoming crucial. Security is one of the key features of the future Internet‟s security. So it is necessary harnessing the synergy in biometrics and in Semantic Web. It can leverage the lack of widely accepted biometrics security standards along with Semantic Web technologies to protect, represent, store and...

Deterrence theory has received considerable attention in recent years. However, scholars have begun to call for research beyond the deterrence approach on security behaviors, and argue that the theory of emotion should not be omitted from information systems security decision making [15, 81]. In this research, we examine and distinguish effects of anger and fear on perceived costs of sanctions ...

Web applications are one of the most prevalent platforms for information and services delivery over Internet today. As they are increasingly used for critical services, web applications become a popular and valuable target for security attacks. Although a large body of techniques have been developed to fortify web applications and and mitigate the attacks toward web applications, there is littl...

In recent years, web applications have evolved from small websites into large multi-tiered applications. The quality of web applications depends on the richness of contents, well structured navigation and most importantly its security. Web application testing is a new field of research so as to ensure the consistency and quality of web applications. In the last ten years there have been differe...

We take a look into the REST architectural style of making scalable web applications and find out the critical requirements that mismatch with the current web security and privacy architecture. One of the core challenges is the inability of the web security model to scale up with caching when millions of users share confidential data inside communities. Our contribution includes a new solution ...

Web applications that require higher levels of security have various security options that can be deployed on the server. However providing security on the client consuming the service remains a challenge especially when the application runs in a web browser. While various types of security hardware can work with the user's computer, there is no convenient way for web applications to access suc...

The massive and automated access to Web resources through robots has made it essential for Web service providers to make some conclusion about whether the "user" is a human or a robot. A Human Interaction Proof (HIP) like Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart (CAPTCHA) offers a way to make such a distinction. CAPTCHA is a reverse Turing test used by Web serv...
