Abstract Researchers have played a significant role in influencing the public’s critical engagement with South African Police Service (SAPS). Resultantly, SAPS officers tend to be wary and/or untrusting of researchers. In present study, we sought understand how this climate suspicion impacts policing research Africa. To do so, employed Foucauldian Discourse Analysis on emails leading up study o...

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) models are becoming a de facto standard, greatly simplifying management and administration tasks. Organizational constraints were introduced (e.g.: mutually exclusive roles, cardinality, prerequisite roles) to reflect peculiarities of organizations. Thus, the number of rules is increasing and policies are becoming more and more complex: understanding and analyzi...

The security infrastructure is ill-equipped to detect and deter the smuggling of non-explosive devices that enable terror attacks such as those recently perpetrated in western Europe. The detection of so-called “small metallic threats” (SMTs) in cargo containers currently relies on statistical risk analysis, intelligence reports, and visual inspection of X-ray images by security officers. The l...

Intrusion detection is one of the important aspects in computer security. Many commercial intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are available and are widely used by organizations. However, most of them suffer from the problem of high false alarm rate, which added heavy workload to security officers who are responsible for handling the alarms. In this paper, we propose a new method to reduce the nu...
