The security of mobile business applications based on mCRM
2020
A development of mobile technologies, and their common use in business, creates new challenges for people dealing with data security in the organization. This paper explores the types and nature of threats to the enterprise that result from the widespread use of business applications on smartphones (e.g. mobile CRM). The analysis has been focused on smartphones and tablets running on the Android operating system. We used STRIDE - a threat modeling technique commonly used to detect vulnerabilities in software security. We propose its modification to better design and implement solutions for the security of mobile devices. We also used the Data Flow Diagram and the Attack Tree concept to anal…
Analyzing the security of Windows 7 and Linux for cloud computing
2013
We review and analyze the major security features and concerns in deploying modern commodity operating systems such as Windows 7 and Linux 2.6.38 in a cloud computing environment. We identify the security weaknesses and open challenges of these two operating systems when deployed in the cloud environment. In particular, we examine and compare various operating system security features which are critical in providing a secure cloud. These security features include authentication, authorization and access control, physical memory protection, privacy and encryption of stored data, network access and firewalling capabilities, and virtual memory.
From user-generated data to data-driven innovation: A research agenda to understand user privacy in digital markets
2021
Abstract In recent years, strategies focused on data-driven innovation (DDI) have led to the emergence and development of new products and business models in the digital market. However, these advances have given rise to the development of sophisticated strategies for data management, predicting user behavior, or analyzing their actions. Accordingly, the large-scale analysis of user-generated data (UGD) has led to the emergence of user privacy concerns about how companies manage user data. Although there are some studies on data security, privacy protection, and data-driven strategies, a systematic review on the subject that would focus on both UGD and DDI as main concepts is lacking. There…
Encriptación óptica empleando llaves Weierstrass-Mandelbrot
2013
[EN] This paper presents the generation of encryption keys using the local oscillating properties of the partial sums of Weierstrass-Mandelbrot fractal function. In this way, the security key can be replicated if the parameters used to obtain it are known. Therefore, these parameters can be sent instead of sending the key. This procedure reduces the amount of information to be sent and prevents possible interception of the key. Moreover, the key can not be affected by data loss or pollution. The effectiveness of the Weierstrass-Mandelbrot keys were demonstrated by computer simulation in a 4f optical encryption system and the double random phase encoding technique. These keys allow us to enc…
The Integration and Sharing of Resources for a New Quality of Living
2014
In questo capitolo, il tema della condivisione è trattato anche dal punto di vista giuridico attraverso una discussione caratterizzante il dibattito rilevante. Sono quindi approfondite le questioni inerenti le funzioni e la forma urbana. L’IT infatti può interagire con problemi operativi della città e con l’uso delle risorse ambientali (energia, suolo, acqua…), parametro indicativo su cui devono essere sviluppate le trasformazioni urbane. Come condividere gli spazi e le funzioni urbane costituisce la nuova frontiera nel campo dell’innovazione urbana. In this chapter, the issues of sharing of information and of information technologies use are dealt with from the juridical point of view, thr…
A Scheme for Secure and Reliable Distributed Data Storage in Unattended WSNs
2010
Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) operated in hostile environments face a risk on data security due to the absence of real-time communication between sensors and sinks, which imposes sensors to accumulate data till the next visit of a mobile sink to off-load the data. Thus, how to ensure forward secrecy, backward secrecy and reliability of the accumulated data is a great challenge. For example, if a sensor is compromised, pre-compromise data accumulated in the sensor is exposed to access. In addition, by holding key secrecy of the compromised sensor, attackers also can learn post-compromise data in the sensor. Furthermore, in practical UWSNs, once sensors stop working for accident…

Security and privacy in the Internet of Things: Current status and open issues
2014
The Internet of Things at large will foster billions of devices, people and services to interconnect and exchange information and useful data. As IoT systems will be ubiquitous and pervasive, a number of security and privacy issues will arise. Credible, economical, efficient and effective security and privacy for IoT are required to ensure exact and accurate confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and access control, among others. In this paper, the IoT vision, existing security threats, and open challenges in the domain of IoT are discussed. The current state of research on IoT security requirements is discussed and future research directions with respect to IoT security and privacy ar…
A practical framework for data management processes and their evaluation in population-based medical registries.
2013
We present a framework for data management processes in population-based medical registries. Existing guidelines lack the concreteness we deem necessary for them to be of practical use, especially concerning the establishment of new registries. Therefore, we propose adjustments and concretisations with regard to data quality, data privacy, data security and registry purposes.First, we separately elaborate on the issues to be included into the framework and present proposals for their improvements. Thereafter, we provide a framework for medical registries based on quasi-standard-operation procedures.The main result is a concise and scientifically based framework that tries to be both broad a…
Internet of things and privacy preserving technologies
2009
In this paper we consider different approaches to technological protection of users' privacy in the world of internet of things. Particularly, we consider what kind of problems and which level of protection can be achieved by applying approaches using secure multi-party computations.
