Security Risk Scoring Incorporating Computers' Environment
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
A framework of a Continuous Monitoring System (CMS) is presented, having new improved capabilities. The system uses the actual real-time configuration of the system and environment characterized by a Configuration Management Data Base (CMDB) which includes detailed information of organizational database contents, security and privacy specifications. The Common Vulnerability Scoring Systems' (CVSS) algorithm produces risk scores incorporating information from the CMDB. By using the real updated environmental characteristics the system enables achieving accurate scores compared to existing practices. Framework presentation includes systems' design and an illustration of scoring computations.

Secure Deletion of Data from SSD
The deletion of data from storage is an important component on data security. The deletion of entire disc or special files is well-known on hard drives, but this is quite different on SSDs, because they have a different...
An Extension of the Bisection Theorem to Symmetrical Circuits with Cross-Coupling
This paper demonstrates that the bisection theorem can be applied to the differential and common-mode analysis of balanced symmetrical circuits with cross coupling. This class of circuits is often found in the literature...
Optimum Access Analysis of Collaborative Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Network using MRC
The performance of cognitive radio network mainly depends on the finest sensing of the presence or absence of Primary User (PU). The throughput of a Secondary User (SU) can be reduced because of the false detection of PU...
