The details of this attack point to the hacking group DarkSide taking advantage of the design flaws in the Colonial Pipeline network. After extensive research, the specificity of this attack was related to VPN access through an unused account. In order to regain control of their systems, Colonial Pipeline paid the attackers. This act has only created an incentive for similar attacks across the nation. The events of this attack have impacted both the United States, where the company is located and the world in a very negative way. This paper analyzes the attack with published data and provides a detailed attack methodology. From the attack methodology the focus then shifts into the impacts that an attack of this caliber had, on both the company, the United States, and the world. We then outline possible defense strategies against this type of ransomware attack, analyzing what could have been done to prevent this attack from happening. In addition, we also detail how companies can prevent future attacks of this caliber. Finally we wrap up or findings and detail the key takeaways of the entire attack.","PeriodicalId":341115,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE/ACM 23rd International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Internet Computing Workshops (CCGridW)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114645111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As with standard communication systems, vehicle communication systems may be abused or attacked in ways that could compromise the transport systems and the security of drivers and their vehicles. Millimeter Wave (mmWave) communications are anticipated to play a significant part in this communication. This paper investigates securing the communications with mmWave by employing physical layer security through several Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces(IRSs) to secure communication network from both eavesdropping and jamming attacks. By utilizing multiple IRSs to generate numerous links of transmission among a receiver user and a number of base station antennas in the existence of a single eavesdropper and jammer. By optimizing both the phase shifts at passive IRSs beamforming and the active beamforming at the base station, we were able to boost the secrecy rate over multiple intelligent reflecting surfaces networks functioning in the mmWave radio spectrum. However, because the specified issue is non-convex, we provide an efficient approach that relies on alternating optimization to achieve a suboptimal solution. The outcomes of this study highlighted the benefits of leveraging several IRSs in the mmWave system to enhance the rate of security. Additionally, it was found out that IRS can be proposed to assist jammers in attacking legal users without requiring any internal energy to generate jamming signals, while eavesdropping can mitigate the harmful effects of jamming. The proposed strategy can successfully raise the secrecy rate of legitimate users by jamming the eavesdropper with multiple IRSs in mmWave networks, according to simulation results.","PeriodicalId":341115,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE/ACM 23rd International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Internet Computing Workshops (CCGridW)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125138909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, it can negatively impact the mental health of individuals who view or are exposed to it, particularly children and vulnerable individuals. Secondly, it can lead to the spread of illegal content such as child pornography or revenge porn, which can cause significant harm to the victims involved. Lastly, it can create a toxic and unsafe online environment, where cyberbullying, harassment, and hate speech thrive, ultimately leading to social division and harm to the community. As a result, it is important to promote the responsible and respectful use of online platforms to prevent such harm. Therefore, it is important to segment such obscene regions present in images across social media platforms. To deal with the issue, we have proposed a modified encoder-decoder-based technique entitled sandglass-block encoder with attention skip and swin-based bottleneck (SAS-UNet) for the segmentation of obscenity in nude/obscene images. Our proposed method SASUNet incorporates the usage of a sandglass block in the encoder section of U-Net, a swin transformer in the bottleneck, and CBAM inclusion at the skip connection. The proposed model is trained and validated with the segmented obscene image (SOI) dataset. The collected obscene images were segmented precisely to build a binary mask of all the obscene images. The proposed SAS-UNet achieved a precision of 94.30%, 93.22% recall, 92.31% of mDC value, and 91.42% of mIOU value which outperformed the existing algorithms.","PeriodicalId":341115,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE/ACM 23rd International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Internet Computing Workshops (CCGridW)","volume":"188 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116394627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, current approaches to implementing these applications on modern HPC systems exhibit poor scale-out performance with increasing numbers of nodes. The scalability challenges for these applications are driven by large data sizes, synchronization overheads, and fine-grained communications with irregular data accesses and poor locality. This paper presents the scalability of a novel Actor-based programming system, which provides a lightweight runtime that supports fine-grained asynchronous execution and automatic message aggregation atop a Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) communication layer. Evaluations of the Jaccard Index and PageRank applications on the NERSC Perlmutter system demonstrate nearly perfect scaling up to 1,000 nodes and 64K cores (one-third of the targeted 3000-nodes for Perlmutter). In addition, our Actor-based implementations of Jaccard Index and PageRank executed with parallel efficiencies of 85.7% and 63.4% for the largest run of 64K cores. This performance represents a 29.6 × speedup relative to UPC and OpenSHMEM versions of PageRank.","PeriodicalId":341115,"journal":{"name":"2023 IEEE/ACM 23rd International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Internet Computing Workshops (CCGridW)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117230974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
