CloudSafe: A tool for an automated security analysis for cloud computing
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference Paper)Cloud computing has been adopted widely, providing on-demand computing resources to improve performance and reduce operational costs. However, these new functionalities also bring new ways to exploit the cloud computing ... -
Design and Implementation of a Threat-Specific Security Risk Assessment Tool
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Conference Paper)Security threats posed to individual cloud computing clients vary depending on their specific security requirements. However, Cloud Providers apply generic security risk assessment approaches which result do not consider ... -
Garbled computation in cloud
( Elsevier , 2016 , Article)With the wide adoption of cloud computing paradigm, it is important to develop appropriate techniques to protect client data privacy in the cloud. Encryption is one of the major techniques that could be used to achieve ... -
Quantifying Satisfaction of Security Requirements of Cloud Software Systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2023 , Article)The satisfaction of a software requirement is commonly stated as a Boolean value, that is, a security requirement is either satisfied (true) or not (false). However, a discrete Boolean value to measure the satisfaction ... -
Systematic identification of threats in the cloud: A Survey
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)When a vulnerability is discovered in a system, some key questions often asked by the security analyst are what threat(s) does it pose, what attacks may exploit it, and which parts of the system it affects. Answers to those ... -
Threat-specific security risk evaluation in the cloud
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)Existing security risk evaluation approaches (e.g., asset-based) do not consider specific security requirements of individual cloud computing clients in the security risk evaluation. In this paper, we propose a threat-specific ... -
ThreatRiskEvaluator: A Tool for Assessing Threat-Specific Security Risks in the Cloud
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference Paper)In cloud computing, security risks posed to individual clients are different based on their specific security requirements. In current practice, cloud providers usually apply generic protection mechanisms that may not be ... -
Using block cipher for confidentiality of images in cloud-based systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)This paper deals with outsourcing of computing to cloud servers where clients' images are computed and stored. It proposes a technique that obfuscates images before sending them to servers. Cloud servers can perform ... -
Using Sparse Matrices to Prevent Information Leakage in Cloud Computing
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2018 , Conference Paper)Cloud computing represents the promise of outsourcing of scientific computing such as matrix multiplication. However, this can introduce new vulnerabilities such as information leakage. Cloud server intentionally or ...
