Scientific Talk at SBA: An Overview of Selected Topics and Research Opportunities in Information System Security by Pavol Zavarsky
Pavol Zavarsky is holding a scientific talk at SBA Research about an overview of selected topics and research opportunities in information system security
The focus of the presentation will be on two research-intensive fields of information security: (1) detection of web application vulnerabilities, and (2) methods of detecting malware that has evaded enterprise anti-malware services and successfully infected host computers. The presentation will start by outlining major challenges in detecting advanced web application vulnerabilities. To illustrate research opportunities, results of performance of current state-of-the-art black-box web vulnerability scanners in detecting web application vulnerabilities will be analyzed. Then, the presentation will address the fact that some percentage of new-born malware has always evaded detection by standard enterprise-class anti-malware services and security controls. Various aspects of obfuscation will be analyzed, results in detecting operational malware by its tactics of obfuscation will be shown, and possible avenues that might be explored will be discussed. Finally, by comparing detection capabilities of forensic investigation utilities based on live response and memory image analysis in detecting SSDT hooking by bona fide Windows kernel rootkits, the presentation will illustrate the pressing, practical importance of continued research into memory forensics and improvement of memory forensic utilities.

The thin line between design aspects for the private IT infrastructure in enterprises and the ones used to build a Private Cloud Computing environments makes it difficult to find actual differences. In many areas, there is actually a significant amount of similarities and overlaps between design approaches. To emphasizes essential differences, underlying design concepts and to understand how the enterprises should build their next-generation IT infrastructure, Smoot’s “Private cloud computing” depicts deployment solutions pointed towards Service-oriented infrastructure in the Cloud and discusses Cloud security as a whole.

Christian Pichler is holding a talk about current developments in Process Mining
The overall goal of EDImine is the analysis of inter-organizational business processes. Thereby, EDImine’s approach extends innovative process mining techniques, which currently have a pure focus on processes within a company. The project delivers means for mining the messages exchanged between companies, discovering the inherent inter-organizational processes using process mining, extracting relevant information out of these processes and lifting the information to the business level. The overall objective is the analysis, the optimization, the forecast, as well as the monitoring of inter-organizational relationships from an economic as well as from a technical point of view.
