Using Probabilistic Context-Free Grammar To Create Password Guessing Models, Isabelle Hjelden
Using Probabilistic Context-Free Grammar To Create Password Guessing Models, Isabelle Hjelden
Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal
This paper will discuss two versions of probabilistic context-free grammar password-guessing models. The first model focuses on using English semantics to break down passwords and identify patterns. The second model identifies repeating chunks in passwords and uses this information to create possible passwords. Then, we will show the performance of each model on leaked password databases, and finally discuss the observations made on these tests.

Using Blockchain To Improve Security Of The Internet Of Things, Joshua W. Quist
Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal
The Internet of Things has increased in popularity in recent years, with daily life now being surrounded by “smart devices.” This network of smart devices, such as thermostats, refrigerators, and even stationary bikes affords us convenience, but at a cost. Security measures are typically inferior on these devices; considering that they collect our data around the clock, this is a big reason for concern. Recent research shows that blockchain technology may be one way to address these security concerns. This paper discusses the Internet of Things and the current issues with how security is handled, discusses how blockchain can shore …
