    Abdulaziz Attaallah1, Khalil al-Sulbi2, Areej Alasiry3, Mehrez Marzougui3, Mohd Waris Khan4,*, Mohd Faizan4, Alka Agrawal5, Dhirendra Pandey5

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.47, No.3, pp. 3165-3195, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.040259

    Abstract Security testing is a critical concern for organizations worldwide due to the potential financial setbacks and damage to reputation caused by insecure software systems. One of the challenges in software security testing is test case prioritization, which aims to reduce redundancy in fault occurrences when executing test suites. By effectively applying test case prioritization, both the time and cost required for developing secure software can be reduced. This paper proposes a test case prioritization technique based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm, a metaheuristic approach. The performance of the ACO-based technique is evaluated using the Average Percentage of Fault… More >

    Jawad Ahmad1,*, Mimonah Al Qathrady2, Mohammed S. Alshehri3, Yazeed Yasin Ghadi4, Mujeeb Ur Rehman5, Syed Aziz Shah6

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.76, No.2, pp. 1325-1341, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.040858

    Abstract Due to the inherent insecure nature of the Internet, it is crucial to ensure the secure transmission of image data over this network. Additionally, given the limitations of computers, it becomes even more important to employ efficient and fast image encryption techniques. While 1D chaotic maps offer a practical approach to real-time image encryption, their limited flexibility and increased vulnerability restrict their practical application. In this research, we have utilized a 3D Hindmarsh-Rose model to construct a secure cryptosystem. The randomness of the chaotic map is assessed through standard analysis. The proposed system enhances security by incorporating an increased number… More >

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.75, No.2, pp. 3065-3089, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.035695

    Abstract There are many cloud data security techniques and algorithms available that can be used to detect attacks on cloud data, but these techniques and algorithms cannot be used to protect data from an attacker. Cloud cryptography is the best way to transmit data in a secure and reliable format. Various researchers have developed various mechanisms to transfer data securely, which can convert data from readable to unreadable, but these algorithms are not sufficient to provide complete data security. Each algorithm has some data security issues. If some effective data protection techniques are used, the attacker will not be able to… More >

    Proof-of-Improved-Participation: A New Consensus Protocol for Blockchain Technology

    N. Anita*, M. Vijayalakshmi, S. Mercy Shalinie

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.44, No.3, pp. 2007-2018, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.025516

    Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is converting today’s physical world into a complex and sophisticated network of connected devices on an enormous scale. The existing malicious node detection mechanism in traditional approaches lacks in transparency, availability, or traceability of the detection phase. To overcome these concerns, we provide a decentralized technique using blockchain technology. Despite the fact that blockchain technology is applicable to create that type of models, existing harmony set of instructions are susceptible to do violence to such as DoS and Sybil, making blockchain systems unfeasible. Here, a new Proof-of-Improved-Participation (PoIP) harmony instruction was suggested that benefits the… More >

    A Mutual Authentication and Cross Verification Protocol for Securing Internet-of-Drones (IoD)

    Saeed Ullah Jan1, Irshad Ahmed Abbasi2,*, Fahad Algarni3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.72, No.3, pp. 5845-5869, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.026179

    Abstract With the rapid miniaturization in sensor technology, Internet-of-Drones (IoD) has delighted researchers towards information transmission security among drones with the control station server (CSS). In IoD, the drone is different in shapes, sizes, characteristics, and configurations. It can be classified on the purpose of its deployment, either in the civilian or military domain. Drone’s manufacturing, equipment installation, power supply, multi-rotor system, and embedded sensors are not issues for researchers. The main thing is to utilize a drone for a complex and sensitive task using an infrastructure-less/self-organization/resource-less network type called Flying Ad Hoc Network (FANET). Monitoring data transmission traffic, emergency and… More >

    Security Threat and Vulnerability Assessment and Measurement in Secure Software Development

    Mamoona Humayun1, NZ Jhanjhi2,*, Maram Fahhad Almufareh1, Muhammad Ibrahim Khalil3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.71, No.3, pp. 5039-5059, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.019289

    Abstract Security is critical to the success of software, particularly in today's fast-paced, technology-driven environment. It ensures that data, code, and services maintain their CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability). This is only possible if security is taken into account at all stages of the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). Various approaches to software quality have been developed, such as CMMI (Capability maturity model integration). However, there exists no explicit solution for incorporating security into all phases of SDLC. One of the major causes of pervasive vulnerabilities is a failure to prioritize security. Even the most proactive companies use the “patch and… More >
