Covert channels and tunneling approaches are becoming a severe threat to information security. Penetration tools are employed to transit sensitive information through authorized streams. Since many current solutions are based on expert’s experiences or latter-wit, a self-learning detection and analysis system is starved for. A data mining framework for Covert Channel Detection and Analysis Syst...

Covert face recognition was investigated in a patient with prosopagnosia without object agnosia. This patient performed well in various face processing tasks like expression analysis and feature processing and had relatively preserved semantic knowledge about persons, but was slightly impaired in the visual matching of unfamiliar faces. In face-name paired-associate relearning task, covert face...

Based on the security of information transmission through network in the information society, the paper puts forward covert communication technology which is more reliable than the prior encryption algorithm, analyzes channel covertness and information hiding of covert communication technology based on spread-spectrum communication technology, and establishes a covert communication system inclu...

Covert channels can be utilized to secretly deliver information from high privileged processes to low privileged processes in the context of a high-assurance computing system. In this case study, we investigate the possibility of covert channel establishment via software caches in the context of a framework for component-based operating systems. While component-based operating systems offer sec...

The purpose of our project was the implementation of an application-layer covert channel, with guaranteed con dentiality via cha ng. A covert channel is a means of passing information between two parties in such a manner that the existence of the communication channel itself is not obvious to the casual observer. Additionally, the implementation of a covert channel is enhanced through encryptio...

Objectives: A commercial chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) protective covert garment has recently been developed with the aim of reducing thermal strain. A covert CBRN protective layer can be worn under other clothing, with equipment added for full chemical protection when needed. However, it is unknown whether the covert garment offers any alleviation to thermal strain duri...

children insert an extra wh-word in the middle of a question ('What do you think what pigs eat? ') thus creating a construction that is acceptable in German. These errors reflect the limit of the POS: as there is no German input, the error must arise from children's own innate expectations. Crain and Pietroski also engage the empiricist arguments on their own ground. They consider carefully var...

Objective: For decades, both theory and research have focused on the role of self-esteem and shame in constructing narcissistic traits. However, studies on the exact relationship between these two and overt and covert facets of narcissism have been equivocal.  Methods: The current study is correlational. It examined these relationships among 308 Iranian college students (155 males, 153 femal...
