This book focuses on three emerging research topics in mobile social networks (MSNs): privacy-preserving profile matching (PPM) protocols, privacy-preserving cooperative data forwarding (PDF) protocols, and trustworthy service evaluation (TSE) systems. The PPM helps two users compare their personal profiles without disclosing the profiles. The PDF helps users forward data to their friends via multiple cooperative relay peers while preserving their identity and location privacy. The TSE enables users to locally share service reviews on the vendors such that users receive more valuable information about the services not only from vendors but also from their trusted social friends. The authors address both theoretic and practical aspects of these topics by introducing the system model, reviewing the related works, and presenting the solutions. Security and Privacy for Mobile Social Networks further provides the security analysis and the performance evaluation based on real-trace simulations. It also summarizes the future research directions for this rapidly growing area of research. The book will be valuable for researchers and practitioners who work with mobile social networks, communication platforms, wireless communication techniques, and internet applications.”Suitable for any type of reader as an introduction to the topic… The chapters are well motivated and presented… It is recommended for researchers.” -ACM Computing Reviews, 21 July 2014
Advances in information and communication technologies continue to p- vide new means of conducting remote transactions. Services facilitated by these technologies are spreading increasingly into our commercial and private spheres. For many people, these services have changed the way they work, communicate, shop, arrange travel, etc. Remote transactions, however, may also open possibilities for fraud and other types of misuse. Hence, the requi- ment to authorize transactions may arise. Authorization may in turn call for some kind of user authentication. When users have to provide personal inf- mation to access services, they literally leave a part of their life on record. As the number of sites where such records are left increases, so does the d- ger of misuse. So-called identity theft has become a pervasive problem, and a general feeling of unease and lack of trust may dissuade people from using the services on o?er. This,inanutshell,isoneofthemajorchallengesinsecurityengineering- day. How to provide servicesto individuals securelywithout making undue – cursions into their privacy at the same time. Decisions on the limits of privacy intrusions – or privacy protection, for that matter – are ultimately political decisions. Research can de?ne the design space in which service providers and regulators may try to ?nd acceptable tradeo?s between security and privacy.
The Workshop on the Economics of Information Security was established in 2002 to bring together computer scientists and economists to understand and improve the poor state of information security practice. WEIS was
borne out of a realization that security often fails for non-technical reasons. Rather, the incentives of both – fender and attacker must be considered. Earlier workshops have answered questions ranging from?nding optimal
levels of security investement to understanding why privacy has been eroded. In the process, WEIS has attracted participation from the diverse?elds such as law, management and psychology. WEIS has now established itself as the
leading forum for interdisciplinary scholarship on information security. The eigth installment of the conference returned to the United Kingdom, hosted byUniversityCollegeLondononJune24-25,2009.Approximately100researchers,
practitioners and government of?cials from across the globe convened in London to hear presentations from authors of 21 peer-reviewed papers, in addition to a panel and keynote lectures from Hal Varian (Google), Bruce Schneier
(BT Co- terpane), Martin Sadler (HP Labs), and Robert Coles (Merrill Lynch). Angela Sasse and David Pym chaired the conference, while Christos Ioannidis and Tyler Moore chaired the program committee.

Social network usage has increased exponentially in recent years. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn and Instagram, not only facilitate sharing of personal data but also connect people professionally. However, development of these platforms with more enhanced features like HTML5, CSS, XHTML and Java Script expose these sites to various vulnerabilities that may be the root cause of various threats. Therefore, social networking sites have become an attack surface for various cyber-attacks such as XSS attack and SQL Injection. Numerous defensive techniques have been proposed, yet with technology up-gradation current scenarios demand for more efficient and robust solutions. Cross-Site Scripting Attacks: Classification, Attack, and Countermeasuresis a comprehensive source which provides an overview of web-based vulnerabilities and explores XSS attack in detail. This book provides a detailed overview of the XSS attack; its classification, recent incidences on various web applications, and impacts of the XSS attack on the target victim. This book addresses the main contributions of various researchers in XSS domain. It provides in-depth analysis of these methods along with their comparative study. The main focus is a novel framework which is based on Clustering and Context based sanitization approach to protect against XSS attack on social network. The implementation details conclude that it is an effective technique to thwart XSS attack. The open challenges and future research direction discussed in this book will help further to the academic researchers and industry specific persons in the domain of security.

Security, privacy, and trust in the Internet of Things (IoT) and CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) are different from conventional security as concerns revolve around the collection and aggregation of data or transmission of data over the network. Analysis of cyber-attack vectors and the provision of appropriate mitigation techniques are essential research areas for these systems. Adoption of best practices and maintaining a balance between ease of use and security are, again, crucial for the effective performance of these systems.Recent Advances in Security, Privacy and Trust for Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) discusses and presents techniques and methodologies, as well as a wide range of examples and illustrations, to effectively show the principles, algorithms, challenges, and applications of security, privacy, and trust for IoT and CPS.Book features:Introduces new directions for research, development, and engineering security, privacy, and trust of IoT and CPSIntroduces new directions for research, development, and engineering security, privacy, and trust of IoT and CPSIncludes a wealth of examples and illustrations to effectively demonstrate the principles, algorithms, challenges, and applicationsIncludes a wealth of examples and illustrations to effectively demonstrate the principles, algorithms, challenges, and applicationsCovers most of the important security aspects and current trends not present in other reference booksCovers most of the important security aspects and current trends not present in other reference booksThis book will also serve as an excellent reference in security, privacy, and trust of IoT and CPS for professionals in this fast-evolving and critical field.

This book presents a comprehensive approach to protecting sensitive information when large data collections are released by their owners. It addresses three key requirements of data privacy: the protection of data explicitly released, the protection of information not explicitly released but potentially vulnerable due to a release of other data, and the enforcement of owner-defined access restrictions to the released data. It is also the first book with a complete examination of how to enforce dynamic read and write access authorizations on released data, applicable to the emerging data outsourcing and cloud computing situations. Private companies, public organizations and final users are releasing, sharing, and disseminating their data to take reciprocal advantage of the great benefits of making their data available to others. This book weighs these benefits against the potential privacy risks. A detailed analysis of recent techniques for privacy protection in data release and case studies illustrate crucial scenarios. Protecting Privacy in Data Release targets researchers, professionals and government employees working in security and privacy. Advanced-level students in computer science and electrical engineering will also find this book useful as a secondary text or reference.

The Hands-On, Practical Guide to Preventing Ajax-Related Security Vulnerabilities  More and more Web sites are being rewritten as Ajax applications; even traditional desktop software is rapidly moving to the Web via Ajax. But, all too often, this transition is being made with reckless disregard for security. If Ajax applications aren’t designed and coded properly, they can be susceptible to far more dangerous security vulnerabilities than conventional Web or desktop software. Ajax developers desperately need guidance on securing their applications: knowledge that’s been virtually impossible to find, until now.            Ajax Security systematically debunks today’s most dangerous myths about Ajax security, illustrating key points with detailed case studies of actual exploited Ajax vulnerabilities, ranging from MySpace’s Samy worm to MacWorld’s conference code validator. Even more important, it delivers specific, up-to-the-minute recommendations for securing Ajax applications in each major Web programming language and environment, including .NET, Java, PHP, and even Ruby on Rails. You’ll learn how to: ·       Mitigate unique risks associated with Ajax, including overly granular Web services, application control flow tampering, and manipulation of program logic·       Write new Ajax code more safely—and identify and fix flaws in existing code ·       Prevent emerging Ajax-specific attacks, including JavaScript hijacking and persistent storage theft·       Avoid attacks based on XSS and SQL Injection—including a dangerous SQL Injection variant that can extract an entire backend database with just two requests·       Leverage security built into Ajax frameworks like Prototype, Dojo, and ASP.NET AJAX Extensions—and recognize what you still must implement on your own·       Create more secure “mashup” applications Ajax Security will be an indispensable resource for developers coding or maintaining Ajax applications; architects and development managers planning or designing new Ajax software, and all software security professionals, from QA specialists to penetration testers.
