Drone Vs. Drone, Mariah Smith
Drone Vs. Drone, Mariah Smith
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
This paper focuses on the problems that drones pose to digital and physical infrastructure, as well as potential solutions to combat these issues. One solution is incorporating drone usage into ethical hacking. These drone-based attacks are affecting not only economic spaces but also seemingly high-security areas such as prison systems. It is only a matter of time before critical infrastructure is targeted. Conversely, by simulating drone attacks, drones equipped with complex hacking tools and sensors can detect unauthorized pathways and infiltrate networks for the greater good. Incorporating these new practices would enhance digital and physical protection. "Drone vs. Drone" highlights …
A Dynamical Systems Approach For Modeling Malware Propagating Through A Network And Potential Solutions Towards Mitigating Spread, James Johnson
A Dynamical Systems Approach For Modeling Malware Propagating Through A Network And Potential Solutions Towards Mitigating Spread, James Johnson
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
Many people draw close parallels between malware propagating through a network and an epidemic spreading through a population. Epidemics are often modeled by a Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model, in which a similar system of equations can model the spread of a virus through a computer network, and can be simplified when making assumptions about the network itself and its fixed number of nodes and edges. In this instance, malware propagating in a network also should reflect the network it is propagating through, in which the dynamical system will factor in the nodes of the network and their properties. The system itself …
Enhancing 3d Knowledge-Based Authentication In Vr By Having Fun, William James Doyle V, Christopher Kreider
Enhancing 3d Knowledge-Based Authentication In Vr By Having Fun, William James Doyle V, Christopher Kreider
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
In the modern era of cyber attacks, and an ever-changing online world, safety and security must constantly evolve to fit the current standards. In virtual reality (VR) simple keyboard-typed passwords are a thing of the past. These passwords are complicated and frustrating to input. Along with the creation of VR, it also opened the door to a new era of password-based authentication. Using these systems' technology, password inputting can be a fun experience. These passwords are not only easier, and less frustrating to input, but as shown in previous studies, they can also be faster while still being secure. In …
First Amendment Roadblock? Regulating The Misuse Of Generative Ai Technologies: Impersonation And Appropriation Of Likeness Without Permission, Muhammad Rabiu
First Amendment Roadblock? Regulating The Misuse Of Generative Ai Technologies: Impersonation And Appropriation Of Likeness Without Permission, Muhammad Rabiu
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
This paper initially explores the misuse of generative AI technologies, particularly their role in impersonating or appropriating individuals' likeness without consent. It will then analyze technical and legal mitigation strategies and propose recommendations to address this issue in light of the First Amendment’s constitutional Freedom of Speech provision.
From Classroom To Cloud: Why Cybersecurity Education Is Crucial For Tomorrow's Learners, Kiori Edwards
From Classroom To Cloud: Why Cybersecurity Education Is Crucial For Tomorrow's Learners, Kiori Edwards
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
This paper examines the transformative impact of cloud computing on education, highlighting how cloud technologies are reshaping teaching and learning environments, making education more accessible, flexible, and collaborative. It also explores the critical importance of incorporating cybersecurity education into school curricula. As digital devices and cloud-based platforms become integral to students' daily lives, they are increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. This paper argues that early cybersecurity education, starting at the elementary level, is essential for equipping future generations with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the digital world safely, protect their personal information, and avoid cybercrime.
Phishing Emails: An Evolving Cyberattack, Brooke Waltz
Phishing Emails: An Evolving Cyberattack, Brooke Waltz
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
This paper describes the history of phishing attacks and how they turned into cyberattacks, focusing on companies. Over the course of 34 years, phishing has been evolving at an alarming rate, especially with AI now coming into play. As phishing attacks have become more prominent towards companies, there has been an increase in financial loss and data breaches, resulting in a loss of trust in companies. With this loss, companies are trying to find solutions to this problem. Some notable attacks were the RSA breach in 2011, the Texas Energy Company in 2014, and the ILOVEYOU virus in 2000. They …

Tapped In: The Rise Of Mobile Malware, Chrystofuer Davenport
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
As the world of technology continues to evolve and become more advanced with our life, so do the dangers and threats that are determined to hinder that development. Malware continues to be a danger to internet surfers or people with access to technology. At first it was an issue that existed only with computers but since the evolution of smartphones in the early twenty-first century, mobile devices have been a target for multiple malware viruses. It’s important to be aware of what different viruses are capable of doing and how to avoid them when they are encountered. Even though computers …
Social Engineering In The Age Of Ai, Mohammad A. Saleh
Social Engineering In The Age Of Ai, Mohammad A. Saleh
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
The next great invention is artificial intelligence. AI has grown rapidly over the last 15 years and has brought both advantages and disadvantages to everyday society. One of the most concerning disadvantages highlighted in recent years is the rise of social engineering attacks. Social engineering comes in many different forms, making it difficult to identify at times. With the development of AI, these attacks have become even harder to detect, prevent, and stop. This research essay explores the different types of AI-driven social engineering attacks, how they occur, why they happen, and the impact they have on individuals and organizations.
