A Study Of The Security Implications Involved With The Use Of Executable World Wide Web Content, Christopher Hu
A Study Of The Security Implications Involved With The Use Of Executable World Wide Web Content, Christopher Hu
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
Malicious executable code is nothing new. While many consider that the concept of malicious code began in the 1980s when the first PC viruses began to emerge, the concept does in fact date back even earlier. Throughout the history of malicious code, methods of hostile code delivery have mirrored prevailing patterns of code distribution. In the 1980s, file infecting and boot sector viruses were common, mirroring the fact that during this time, executable code was commonly transferred via floppy disks. Since the 1990s email has been a major vector for malicious code attacks. Again, this mirrors the fact that during …

The Mediated Data Integration (Medint) : An Approach To The Integration Of Database And Legacy Systems, Suvimol Mukviboonchai
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
The information required for decision making by executives in organizations is normally scattered across disparate data sources including databases and legacy systems. To gain a competitive advantage, it is extremely important for executives to be able to obtain one unique view of information in an accurate and timely manner. To do this, it is necessary to interoperate multiple data sources, which differ structurally and semantically. Particular problems occur when applying traditional integration approaches, for example, the global schema needs to be recreated when the component schema has been modified. This research investigates the following heterogeneities between heterogeneous data sources: Data …
Automatic Human Face Detection In Color Images, Son Lam Phung
Automatic Human Face Detection In Color Images, Son Lam Phung
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
Automatic human face detection in digital image has been an active area of research over the past decade. Among its numerous applications, face detection plays a key role in face recognition system for biometric personal identification, face tracking for intelligent human computer interface (HCI), and face segmentation for object-based video coding. Despite significant progress in the field in recent years, detecting human faces in unconstrained and complex images remains a challenging problem in computer vision. An automatic system that possesses a similar capability as the human vision system in detecting faces is still a far-reaching goal. This thesis focuses on …
Database Development And Intranet Based Image Included Database Management System For Ballistic Firearm Identification System, Toni C. Jiao
Database Development And Intranet Based Image Included Database Management System For Ballistic Firearm Identification System, Toni C. Jiao
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
The process of imaging, collecting and searching a cartridge case to identifying its suspected firearm is a time consuming procedure. Within this study, a cartridge case identification database management system in an Intranet environment is designed and implemented, thus enabling firearm examiners from different forensic laboratories to engage firearm identification without the constraints of time and location. Specifically, the study investigates appropriate database management system for image involved and Intranet secured ballistics firearm identification database. The results demonstrated that a computerized firearm identification system could be implemented in Intranet with a secure, scalable, performable Intranet database management system.
Determining The Effectiveness Of Deceptive Honeynets, Nirbhay Gupta
Determining The Effectiveness Of Deceptive Honeynets, Nirbhay Gupta
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
Over the last few years, incidents of network based intrusions have rapidly increased, due to the increase and popularity of various attack tools easily available for download from the Internet. Due to this increase in intrusions, the concept of a network defence known as Honeypots developed. These honeypots are designed to ensnare attackers and monitor their activities. Honeypots use the principles of deception such as masking, mimicry, decoying, inventing, repackaging and dazzling to deceive attackers. Deception exists in various forms. It is a tactic to survive and defeat the motives of attackers. Due to its presence in the nature, deception …
