Towards Secure Deep Neural Networks For Cyber-Physical Systems, Jiangnan Li
Doctoral Dissertations
In recent years, deep neural networks (DNNs) are increasingly investigated in the literature to be employed in cyber-physical systems (CPSs). DNNs own inherent advantages in complex pattern identifying and achieve state-of-the-art performances in many important CPS applications. However, DNN-based systems usually require large datasets for model training, which introduces new data management issues. Meanwhile, research in the computer vision domain demonstrated that the DNNs are highly vulnerable to adversarial examples. Therefore, the security risks of employing DNNs in CPSs applications are of concern.
In this dissertation, we study the security of employing DNNs in CPSs from both the data domain …
An Analysis Of Modern Password Manager Security And Usage On Desktop And Mobile Devices, Timothy Oesch
An Analysis Of Modern Password Manager Security And Usage On Desktop And Mobile Devices, Timothy Oesch
Doctoral Dissertations
Security experts recommend password managers to help users generate, store, and enter strong, unique passwords. Prior research confirms that managers do help users move towards these objectives, but it also identified usability and security issues that had the potential to leak user data or prevent users from making full use of their manager. In this dissertation, I set out to measure to what extent modern managers have addressed these security issues on both desktop and mobile environments. Additionally, I have interviewed individuals to understand their password management behavior.
I begin my analysis by conducting the first security evaluation of the …
