A number of commercial cloud-based password managers use bookmarklets to automatically populate and submit login forms. Unfortunately, an attacker web site can maliciously alter the JavaScript environment and, when the login bookmarklet is invoked, steal the user’s passwords. We describe general attack techniques for altering a bookmarklet’s JavaScript environment and apply them to extracting p...

BACKGROUND The Web provides widespread access to vast quantities of health-related information that can improve quality-of-life through better understanding of personal symptoms, medical conditions, and available treatments. Unfortunately, identifying a credible and personally relevant subset of information can be a time-consuming and challenging task for users without a medical background. O...

Defensive JavaScript (DJS) is a typed subset of JavaScript that guarantees that the functional behavior of a program cannot be tampered with even if it is loaded by and executed within a malicious environment under the control of the attacker. As such, DJS is ideal for writing JavaScript security components, such as bookmarklets, single sign-on widgets, and cryptographic libraries, that may be ...

Introduction: Traditional citation analysis has been greatly criticized because the process of citation accumulation requires considerable time after publication. So, the term “altmetrics” was proposed in 2010 to measure the scientific and social impact of a paper.We performed a search for certain nuclear medicine topics using the altmetrics approach to report the correlation b...

MOTIVATION Here we report on recent developments at the EBI SRS server (http://srs.ebi.ac.uk). SRS has become an integration system for both data retrieval and sequence analysis applications. The EBI SRS server is a primary gateway to major databases in the field of molecular biology produced and supported at EBI as well as European public access point to the MEDLINE database provided by US Nat...

Summary Key assertions are extracted from “conclusions” sections of PubMed abstracts and converted into Semantic Web / Linked Data format. The results are made accessible via files, a SPARQL endpoint, and a faceted search interface. Conclusion sections are identified as valuable resources for machine-augmented key assertion identification and integration in the biomedical domain. Results are di...
