An effective attack method based on information exposed by search engines
The attack is based on a 3-step methodology that can be fully automated in order to deploy massive attacks against vulnerable systems. The methodology takes advantage of the “Google Hacking” technique and extends it with two more steps that of information manipulation and the deployment of an exploit. Specially crafted implementations of the proposed attack methodology can be used per se to prevent cyber crime operations through the identification of vulnerable systems and prevention of massive cyber attacks against vulnerable systems.
G.A.R.S, real time protection from child grooming
The GARS (Grooming Attack Recognition System) is an innovative application which aims on creating a safe internet for children by protecting them from online hazards. Specifically, GARS is focused on protecting from child grooming. This term refers to actions deliberately undertaken with the aim of child abuse through internet communications. GARS uses sophisticated techniques of document classification, personality recognition as well as fuzzy logic controllers in order to calculate grooming risk in real time. Whenever the calculated risk overlaps a designated threshold a warning signal is sent directly to the parent who is responsible for further actions. This threshold is calibrated according to the age and the gender of the child. At its current version, GARS supports grooming protection only in english language.
Cassiopeia: Real-time mobile security monitoring system
Cassiopeia aims to improve the conditions of supervision and control of the system security administrators, and reduce critical incidents response time. To achieve this Cassiopeia provides a convenient mobile system architecture with flexible and easily extensible design. The proposed architecture supports real-time system monitoring and threat identification. Additionally, a visual representation of the monitored system’s status and activity is used to provide an abstracted overview. The system status and activity information are provided to the end user through a mobile application. This end user application is presented below:
