Today, we hosted Dr. Ruitao Feng from NTU Singapore to share his #research on #malware detection in #Android #MobileApps, including #DeepLearning models for detecting malware accurately & methods to detect/mitigate #Adversarialattacks targeted such models in the wild #crest_discussion.

Today, Huaming Chen led a discussion on "#KnowledgeGraph for #Secure #SoftwareEngineering", covering different techniques to construct & evaluate a knowledge graph from #software artefacts for various potential applications in #software & #security analytics #crest_discussion.

Many Congratss!!..@nesara_d Mansooreh Zahedi Asangi Jayatilaka @crest_uofa Ali Babar

Yesterday, CREST organized a joyful, relaxing and memorable #BBQ party for our members to gather and share our research/personal stories #crest_gathering. This get-together was great for all of us to recharge after a long semester. Looking forward to a fruitful semester ahead.

Almighty. May we never be among those who are like leaking buckets. People who follow up their good deeds with bad ones. May we never be among those who pray, fast & give charity but curse, swear, gossip & backbite without batting an eyelid. Protect us from such behaviour!

Today, CREST hosted a guest talk given by Muneeb Hassan from Swinburne University of Technology on "#PrivacyPreserving for #Blockchain", sharing the current privacy challenges in different layers of blockchain networks/systems & his previous/on-going efforts to address such issues #crest_discussion.

#SVP models or #SAST tools R better in finding #security #vulnerabilities? our article, bit.ly/3xv5xmL, in ESEM Conference has some answers; @crest_uofa is proud of this work led by Roland Croft funded by @CSCRCoz. #softwaredevelopment #webdevelopers Web.com DevOps.com

Shagun presented the CREST #BigData platform. It supports popular frameworks like #Hadoop, #Spark, #Flink for user-friendly, hassle-free & large-scale data cleaning, modelling & visualization in various domains, e.g., #cybersecurity, #healthcare, #defense. #crest_discussion

@crest_uofa leverages data 2 find answers to problems that intrigue society/business/govt; we are developing a #BigData #platform supporting our R&D 4 #mission #systems in #cybersecurity, #healthcare, #defense; Slide from Shagun brief on key features & components of platform!

Today, CREST met virtually after a long time 4 Keith.M's talk on #CREST #cloud tool #crest_discussion. Although it's challenging, it's good to see our members are doing fine adjusting to #WFH. Hope that #lockdownadelaide will be over soon s/t we can meet again in person.

Congrats to our #PhD student Roshan 🧐 & the co-authors Mansooreh Zahedi, Ali Babar, Prof. Haifeng Shen on a comprehensive and timely review accepted in IST Journal. The review covers the challenges, respective solutions, best practices & future directions for #DevSecOps. #crest_research

Happy to share our paper "Taxonomy of Edge #Blockchain Network Designs" authored by Nguyen Khoi TRAN & Ali Babar accepted ECSA 2024 #ecsa2021 #crest_research We present the guide to design blockchain at network's edge, e.g., 4 #autonomous vehicles & #EdgeComputing. Preprint coming soon

Today, Huaming Chen led an insightful discussion on "#Security analysis of #OpenSourceSoftware (#OSS)", sharing different types of #vulnerabilities in the third-party libraries/packages & the potential use of #staticanalysis for detecting & assessing such vulns #crest_discussion

Today, CREST members attended a virtual discussion led by Yaser on #NoSQL databases, specifically "#MongoDB vs. #Cassandra". The talk focuses on different properties, pros & cons as well as when to use which database for various use cases #crest_discussion.

Today, CREST members virtually attended Dr. Redowan Mahmud's talk on "#EdgeComputing/#FogComputing: Concept, State-of-the-Art, & Future Directions". Takeaway: Edge/fog computing is maturing, yet requires further research on security, orchestration & efficiency #crest_discussion.

Congrats to Shagun on #graduation 👏 joined @crest_uofa 4 a #BigData #project supervised by Faheem Ullah; she performed V competently & decided 2 continue with us as #datascientist tackling extremely challenging #BigData #ML tasks, Wishing good luck #WomenInSTEM Uni of Adelaide

Extremely happy & proud to share our 3 accepted papers in IEEE SANER #saner2022: 👉Inconsistency of #SoftwareVulnerability Severity across Data Sources 👉Exploitability/Impact of #BaseImage Vulnerabilities 👉Secured Container Orchestrator Configuration #crest_research More info👇
