Factors Influencing Adoption Of Mobile Computing, Wenli Zhu, Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Fan Zhao May 2002

Factors Influencing Adoption Of Mobile Computing, Wenli Zhu, Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Fan Zhao

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The emergence of mobile computing combined with the increased popularity of the Internet is changing our daily lives. The increasing use of small portable computers, wireless networks and satellites un folds the new technology of mobile computing, which allows transmis sion of data to computers that are not physically linked to a network. As a result, people can communicate on the move. Mobile devices with new input and output methods and form factors are dramatically different from traditional desktop computers (Rodden et al., 1998). These technological changes make increasing demands on both the quality of user interface and the functionality …


If You Go Down The Internet Today - Deceptive Honeypots, Craig Valli, Suen Yek Jan 2002

If You Go Down The Internet Today - Deceptive Honeypots, Craig Valli, Suen Yek

Research outputs pre 2011

This is preliminary research into the effectiveness of deceptive defensive measures in particular honeypots that use deceit as a primary defensive and offensive mechanism. Initial research has been conducted using the Deception Tool Kit and its ability to fool commonly available network scanning tools such as Nessus and Nmap The preliminary research indicates that these deceptive tools have a place in modern network defence architecture.


Run Time Security Evaluation For Distributed Applications, Cristina Serban, Bruce M. Mcmillin Jul 1996

Run Time Security Evaluation For Distributed Applications, Cristina Serban, Bruce M. Mcmillin

Computer Science Technical Reports

Formal security specifications for a distributed application can be checked for compliance at run-time, during the execution of the application. We propose the RunTime Security Evaluation (RTSE) method which makes use of executable security assertions, histories/traces of events, and operational evaluation in the distributed environment to ensure the security specifications regarding the confidentiality and integrity requirements for the application are fulfilled at run-time. A model problem is used to aid in developing the security requirements formally, and assessment of the RTSE method is given based on the results obtained for the implementation of the model problem. The elements necessary for …
