The PKI infrastructure is crumbling, especially due to the lack of a strong understanding of how encryption actually works, and in threats around its implementation. This paper outlines an Internet storage using secret sharing methods, and which coul... Read More about The future internet: a world of secret shares.

Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, S., Chen, J., Spyridopoulos, T., Andriotis, P., Ludwiniak, R., & Russell, G. (2015). Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system. In Human Aspects of Information Security, Privacy, and Trust (379-390). https://doi

In this paper, we investigated the definition of privacy, privacy abuse behaviours, and the privacy abuse in Android systems, which may be very useful for identifying the malicious apps from 'normal' apps. We also investigated the injection technolog... Read More about Real-time monitoring of privacy abuses and intrusion detection in android system.
