We Are Still Vulnerable to Clickjacking Attacks: About 99 % of Korean Websites Are Dangerous

Clickjacking is an attack that tricks victims into clicking on invisible elements of a web page to perform an unintended action that is advantageous for an attacker. To defend against clickjacking, many techniques have already been proposed, but it is still unclear whether they are effectively deployed in practice. We study how vulnerable Korean websites are to clickjacking attacks by performin...

The Modified Scheme is still vulnerable to the parallel Session Attack

In 2002, Chien–Jan–Tseng introduced an efficient remote user authentication scheme using smart cards. Further, in 2004, W. C. Ku and S. M. Chen proposed an efficient remote user authentication scheme using smart cards to solve the security problems of Chien et al.’s scheme. Recently, Hsu and Yoon et al. pointed out the security weakness of the Ku and Chen’s scheme Furthermore, Yoon et al. modif...

The Australian Public is Still Vulnerable to Emerging Virulent Strains of West Nile Virus

The mosquito-borne West Nile virus (WNV) is responsible for outbreaks of viral encephalitis in humans and horses with particularly virulent strains causing recent outbreaks in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North America. In Australia, a strain of WNV, Kunjin (WNVKUN), is endemic in the north and infection with this virus is generally asymptomatic. However, in early 2011, following extens...

Performance Characteristics of Personal Samplers in Still and Moving Air

Personal samplers or in general blunt body samplers are widely used in occupational hygiene for collecting air contaminants in the work environments. This work is part of an ongoing research into the performance evaluation of personal samplers, particularly in terms of their aerodynamic properties. Velocity profiles have been measured around and within typical cylindrical sampling devices, ...
