Link Variable TrustRank for Fighting Web Spam
Publisher's description
Highly ranking position in the search engine query results can bring great benefits for websites. However, some websites use various techniques cheating search engine to increase their ranking, and thus affecting the quality of the answer provided to the user. TrustRank is a recent algorithm to combat web spam, which is based on the idea that good sites seldom point to spam sites, however, they find many spam sites can get lots of inlinks from good sites by using indecent tricks. They propose to take the variance of link structure into consideration, combining with which the ranking scores of websites are judged. As showing through experiments such a method can filter out web spam effectively.

Data Classification and Working with Data Stakeholders
Understanding business processes for the many departments within large organizations poses one of the largest challenges that information security professionals face when implementing a DLP solution. Most information security professionals know the primary business of their organization, but they may be unfamiliar with some of the details or lack specific information. Developing a comprehensive data security policy can be difficult in this situation. Asking the correct questions of your data owners will allow you to understand their business and the nature of their critical data so you can develop the necessary policies quickly.
In this live presentation we will discuss data classification and a series of questions that you can provide to data owners to help them help you develop good data loss prevention policies.

An Application Dependent Medium Access Protocol for Active RFID Using Dynamic Tuning of the Back-Off Algorithm
Active Radio Frequency Identification (A-RFID) is a technology where the tags (transponders) carry an on-board energy source for powering the radio, processor circuits, and sensors. Besides offering longer working distance between RFID-reader and tag than passive RFID, this also enables the tags to do sensor measurements, calculations and storage even when no RFID-reader is in the vicinity of the tags. This paper introduces a medium access data communication protocol which dynamically adjusts its back-off algorithm to best suit the actual active RFID application at hand.

User authentication and intrusion detection differ from standard classification problems in that while one has data generated from legitimate users, impostor or intrusion data is scarce or non-existent. The paper reviews existing techniques for dealing with this problem and propose a novel alternative based on a principled statistical decision-making view point. The paper examines the technique on a toy problem and validates it on complex real-world data from an RFID based access control system. The results indicate that it can significantly outperform the classical world model approach. The method could be more generally useful in other decision-making scenarios where there is a lack of adversary data.

This paper looks at two different approaches used to provide embedded system support for virtualization and virtual machine monitors for consumer electronics and mobile devices. The paper compares the micro-kernel approach, which has been a popular choice for building embedded operating systems with the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) or hypervisor approach widely deployed in general purpose computing environments such as desktops and data center servers. Comparison criteria are based on virtualization use cases that are typical of Consumer Electronics (CE) systems such as mobile devices and IPTV. These approaches are further evaluated based on performance and on their ability to allow re-use of existing (often real-time) software as well as modern open operating systems such as Linux while remaining as transparently as possible.

A remote attestation that measures files on a Hard Disk Drive (HDD) is important for intrusion detection on a data center server. When the server is infected by a rootkit, the kernel may reply with a faked response. Moreover, when a file measurement application or its result are manipulated, the measurement response is not reliable. A trusted platform module (TPM) that achieves a chain of trust from BIOS to kernel upon booting is proposed to provide the remote attestation. However, as the data center server is rarely rebooted, the TPM is ill suited for the file measurement of the running server. This paper proposes an on-demand remote attestation scheme for HDD files of the server.

Since the FCC mandates the E911 (Enhanced 911) services, carriers using GPS chips to help determine a user's location need to upgrade all handsets in use to GPS-capable models. Meanwhile, the navigation features become much desirable in the personal communication devices such as the cellular phones. This requires the GPS receiver works simultaneously with placing and receiving calls in the complex ElectroMagnetic (EM) environment such as airport and urban indoor environment. This put stringent requirements for GPS receiver sensitivity and its interoperability with other cellular systems.

This paper presents an integrated solar energy scavenger realized in a 0.35 µm CMOS technology. The proposed system collects solar energy from the environment through integrated diodes, accumulates it and, delivers it to the load when it is enough to allow proper operation of the CMOS circuitry. The proposed system is suitable for discrete-time regime applications, such as sensor network nodes or, generally, systems that require power supply periodically for short time slots. In order to properly design the system, the author developed a model of the integrated solar cell on the basis of measurement data extracted from a test chip. The power management circuit, including a charge pumps a comparator and a linear voltage regulator, has been extensively simulated.
