New trends in IT industry impose increasingly requirements on openness and interoperability via networks to enterprise software systems. As a consequence, more and more legacy applications are made available via interfaces more openly through mobile and insecure networks, thereby inducing security risks the initial designs have never had to account for. In this paper, we show how a highly autom...

Phishing attacks remain a common attack vector in today’s IT threat landscape, and one of the primary means of preventing phishing attacks is e-mail filtering. Most e-mail filtering is done according to a either a signaturebased approach or using Bayesian models, so when specific signatures are detected the e-mail is either quarantined or moved to a Junk mailbox. Much like antivirus, though, a ...

The utility of a test set program inputs is strongly influenced by its diversity and size. Syntax coverage has become standard proxy for diversity. Although more sophisticated measures exist, such as proximity sample to uniform distribution, methods use them tend be type dependent. We r-wise hash functions create novel, semantics preserving, testability transformation C programs that we call Ha...

background: recently different studies suggested that discontinuation of gonadotrophin releasing hormone analogue (gnrha) at beginning of ovarian stimulation (improvement of ovarian response to gonadotrophins) may have some benefit to poor responder patients in invitro fertilization (ivf) cycles. objective:the efficacy of gnrha stop protocol in poor responder patients in ivf cycles was assessed...

objective: this study was conducted to compare the results of fixed versus flexible gnrh antagonist protocols in controlled ovarian stimulation for intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) in patients with pcos. materials and methods: a randomized clinical trial was performed on 100 pcos women, who were admitted to a tertiary infertility clinic and were candidate for ivf/icsi. they were divided...

Fuzzing is a popular technique for finding software bugs. However, the performance of the state-of-the-art fuzzers leaves a lot to be desired. Fuzzers based on symbolic execution produce quality inputs but run slow, while fuzzers based on random mutation run fast but have difficulty producing quality inputs. We propose Angora, a new mutation-based fuzzer that outperforms the state-of-the-art fu...
