This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Engineering Secure Software and Systems, ESSoS 2016, held in London, UK, in April 2016. The 13 full papers presented together with 3 short papers and 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The goal of this symposium, is to bring together researchers and practitioners to advance the states of the art and practice in secure software engineering. The presentations and associated publications at ESSoS 2016 contribute to this goal in several directions: First, by improving methodologies for secure software engineering (such as flow analysis and policycompliance). Second, with results for the detection and analysis of software vulnerabilities and the attacks they enable. Finally, for securing software for specific application domains (such as mobile devices and access control).
Published in 1996, Richard Jones's Garbage Collection was a milestone in the area of automatic memory management. Its widely acclaimed successor, The Garbage Collection Handbook: The Art of Automatic Memory Management, captured the state of the field in 2012. Modern technology developments have made memory management more challenging, interesting and important than ever. This second edition updates the handbook, bringing together a wealth of knowledge gathered by automatic memory management researchers and developers over the past sixty years. The authors compare the most important approaches and state-of-the-art techniques in a single, accessible framework. The book addresses new challenges...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Security and Trust Management, STM 2016, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, in September 2016, in conjunction with the 21st European Symposium Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2016. The 13 full papers together with 2 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 34 submissions. the focus on the workshop was on following topics: access control, data protection, mobile security, privacy, security and trust policies, trust models.
The two-volume set, LNCS 11098 and LNCS 11099 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23nd European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2018, held in Barcelona, Spain, in September 2018. The 56 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 283 submissions. The papers address issues such as software security, blockchain and machine learning, hardware security, attacks, malware and vulnerabilities, protocol security, privacy, CPS and IoT security, mobile security, database and web security, cloud security, applied crypto, multi-party computation, SDN security.
A self-contained introduction to abstract interpretation–based static analysis, an essential resource for students, developers, and users. Static program analysis, or static analysis, aims to discover semantic properties of programs without running them. It plays an important role in all phases of development, including verification of specifications and programs, the synthesis of optimized code, and the refactoring and maintenance of software applications. This book offers a self-contained introduction to static analysis, covering the basics of both theoretical foundations and practical considerations in the use of static analysis tools. By offering a quick and comprehensive introduction ...
As human activities moved to the digital domain, so did all the well-known malicious behaviors including fraud, theft, and other trickery. There is no silver bullet, and each security threat calls for a specific answer. One specific threat is that applications accept malformed inputs, and in many cases it is possible to craft inputs that let an intruder take full control over the target computer system. The nature of systems programming languages lies at the heart of the problem. Rather than rewriting decades of well-tested functionality, this book examines ways to live with the (programming) sins of the past while shoring up security in the most efficient manner possible. We explore a range...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Detection of Intrusions and Malware, and Vulnerability Assessment, DIMVA 2015, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2015. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 75 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on attacks, attack detection, binary analysis and mobile malware protection, social networks and large-scale attacks, Web and mobile security, and provenance and data sharing.
This book explores fundamental scientific problems essential for autonomous cyber defense. Specific areas include: Game and control theory-based moving target defenses (MTDs) and adaptive cyber defenses (ACDs) for fully autonomous cyber operations; The extent to which autonomous cyber systems can be designed and operated in a framework that is significantly different from the human-based systems we now operate; On-line learning algorithms, including deep recurrent networks and reinforcement learning, for the kinds of situation awareness and decisions that autonomous cyber systems will require; Human understanding and control of highly distributed autonomous cyber defenses; Quantitative perfo...
As part of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, governments worldwide have deployed mobile phone surveillance programs to augment public health interventions. However, these programs raise privacy concerns. The authors of this report examine whether two goals can be achieved concurrently: the use of mobile phones as public health surveillance tools to help manage COVID‐19 and future crises, and the protection of privacy and civil liberties.
