Android kernel vulnerabilities pose a serious threat to user security and privacy. They allow attackers to take full control over victim devices, install malicious and unwanted apps, and maintain persistent control. Unfortunately, most Android devices are never timely updated to protect their users from kernel exploits. Recent Android malware even has built-in kernel exploits to take advantage ...

Automatic Detection of Safety and Security Vulnerabilities in Open Source Software Syrine Tlili, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2009 Growing software quality requirements have raised the stakes on software safety and security. Building secure software focuses on techniques and methodologies of design and implementation in order to avoid exploitable vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, coding errors hav...

Motivated by typical security requirements of workflow management systems, we consider the integrated verification of both safety properties (e.g. separation of duty) and information flow security predicates of the MAKS framework (e.g. modeling confidentiality requirements). Due to the refinement paradox, enforcement of safety properties might violate possibilistic information flow properties o...

abstract quality of life is a many-sided and complex concept and includes not only physical aspects of life. measuring and discovering this concept depends on many factors such as cultural, social, economical and even environmental. in this research, the connection between women’s quality of life and their access to public utilities and municipal services, health level and safety level of neigh...

The use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) advancement is turning out to be rapidly transversely over an extensive variety of business undertakings. Engineers apply the development not simply in customary applications, for instance, asset or stock after, also in security organizations, electronic travel papers and RFID-embedded card. In any case, RFID development moreover brings different...
