Security Management and Protection--A Personal Approach

Object Security and Personal Information Management

We propose a new security architecture, the Object Security Architecture, enabling users to securely store data on (distributed) servers, not completely trustworthy, while at the same time allowing users to share the data according to their own trust models. Moreover, it provides a corporation with means to completely outsource storage of sensitive information. The architecture seems highly sui...

A Study on Security Management Architecture for Personal Networks

The authors have studied the security management architecture for Personal Networks (PN). The main feature of the proposed architecture is to exploit a trusted cellular system, namely, an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), to provide security functions for PNs over open networks like the Internet. They also proposed two security functions to solve security issues for a PN, PE ID and Key Assignment ...

Information Security Management: A System Dynamics Approach

Managing security for information assets presents a challenging task. The need for effective information security management assumes greater importance with growing reliance on distributed systems and Internet-accessible systems. Many factors play a role in determining the vulnerability of information assets to security threats. Using a system dynamics approach, this study evaluates information...

A novel approach to personal photo album representation and management

In this paper we present a novel approach to personal photo album management allowing the end user to efficiently access the collection without any need for tedious manual annotation or indexing of the photos. The proposed work exploits methods and technology from the field of computer vision and pattern recognition for face detection, face representation and image annotation to automatically c...
