Current implementations allow passengers to access Internet for pleasure and in some cases secure VPN access is provided to corporate networks. Several researchers are looking at the possibility of the existence of a total three networks: passenger network (PN), crew network (CRN), and the control network (CON). Researchers envision an architecture where these three networks co-exist in an airplane. The available Internet connectivity can be utilized for transporting flight critical information like cockpit flight data recorder (CFDR) data, digital flight data recorder (DFDR) data, cockpit voice recorder (CVR) data and controller pilot data link communication. In addition, the Internet connectivity could also be used for other safety mechanisms like video surveillance and remote control of the flight. Security is one of the major concerns that affect the successful deployment of aircraft data networks (ADN) and other safety features. Several studies have been carried out to secure the network using firewalls and intrusion detection system but so far no study has focused on securing the communication channel (between the aircraft and the ground station) and its impact on the ADN. The scope of this research is to determine the viability and need of a security mechanism. The research also focuses on the performance of different security architectures and determine their usability in the framework of an ADN","PeriodicalId":411051,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 39th Annual 2005 International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122090660","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}

It was shown by Schwaninger et al. (2004) that certain image-based factors influence detection when visually inspecting X-ray images of passenger bags. Threat items are more difficult to recognize when placed in close-packed bags (effect of bag complexity), when superimposed by other objects (effect of superposition), and when rotated (effect of viewpoint). The X-ray object recognition rest (X-ray ORT) was developed to measure the abilities needed to cope with these factors. In this study, we examined the reliability and validity of the X-ray ORT based on a sample of 453 aviation security screeners and 453 novices. Cronbach Alpha and split-half analysis revealed high reliability. Validity was examined using internal, convergent, discriminant and criterion-related validity estimates. The results show that the X-ray ORT is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring visual abilities needed in X-ray screening. This makes the X-ray ORT an interesting tool for competency and pre-employment assessment purposes.","PeriodicalId":411051,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 39th Annual 2005 International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology","volume":"13 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132663018","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 more and more enterprises are moving towards IP based voice network, the payload security has become an important issue. The voice traffic is exposed to the same threats as the normal data traffic. However, with voice traffic, the security and accessibility requirements are different from the data traffic. While it is important to protect the voice packets from spoofing and eves dropping, it is equally important that the law enforcement agencies gain access to these voice packets when legally required. With the deployment of security mechanisms like encryption, it becomes harder for the law enforcement agencies to decipher the information hidden in the IP packets related to voice calls. It would make sense to use standardized encryption techniques with voice over IP, at the same time provide a means to decipher the data as and when needed. This would provide the law enforcement agencies an easier access to the information during critical situations provided they have access to the encryption keys. The emphasis should be placed on the choice of encryption keys making it difficult for intruders to decipher. In this paper, the authors review the security requirements of voice traffic transmitted via Internet with the law enforcement and security perspective. The authors review the requirements of various law enforcement agencies and assess the impact of security mechanisms deployed in VOIP networks on law enforcement","PeriodicalId":411051,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 39th Annual 2005 International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122906305","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}

The engine driving the creation of this society is an ICT framework based on the convergence of media, processes and communications networks delivering ubiquitous access to knowledge irrespective of location. Much of the ICT research agenda is focused on the specification of this framework. The proposed systems are highly complex requiring the interconnection of highly complex infrastructures and systems. The pervasiveness of ICT in this new society creates challenges in terms of privacy, access control, trust and reliability. The development of an effective secure and dependable environment is crucial for the effective delivery of the knowledge society. The creation of a knowledge society within Europe requires that Europe position itself at the forefront of research in this area. The key challenges for Europe are to develop security solutions, which can guarantee dependability and resilience of ICT infrastructures and well as provide management and control capabilities for these networks. The IST FP6 project SecurIST is addressing the challenge of developing a European strategic security research agenda for post FP6, designed to drive the development of the security research program for FP7. The project acts as a catalyst bringing together the key research scientists and industry decision makers to develop this agenda. Participation in the development of this agenda is open to all organisations interested in making a contribution to developing a European security and dependability research agenda. The project has ensured uptake of its outputs by creating a security advisory board composed of key industrial experts and decision makers charged with providing guidance to the project in the development of the security research agenda and in promoting the projects outputs to industry. This paper provides a brief overview of SecurIST and an introduction to the security task force initiatives that have been formed.

First, these factors were validated using detection experiments. We then developed computer-based algorithms to estimate the image-based factors automatically. Finally, we could show that our computational model can better explain human performance than human ratings of the image-based factors","PeriodicalId":411051,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 39th Annual 2005 International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127832925","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}
