In recent times, ransomware has become the most significant cyber-attack targeting individuals, enterprises, healthcare industries, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Existing security systems like Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) and Anti-virus (AV) as a single monitoring agent is complicated and time-consuming, thus fails in ransomware detection. A robust Intrusion Detection Honeypot (IDH) is proposed to address the issues mentioned above. IDH consists of i) Honeyfolder, ii) Audit Watch, and iii) Complex Event Processing (CEP). Honeyfolder is a decoy folder modeled using Social Leopard Algorithm (SoLA), especially for getting attacked and acting as an early warning system to alert the user during the suspicious file activities. AuditWatch is an Entropy module that verifies the entropy of the files and folders. CEP engine is used to aggregate data from different security systems to confirm the ransomware behavior, attack pattern, and promptly respond to them. The proposed IDH is experimentally tested in a secured testbed using more than 20 variants of recent ransomware of all types. The experimental result confirms that the proposed IDH significantly improves the ransomware detection time, rate, and accuracy compared with the existing state of the art ransomware detection model.
A small, affordable computer, the size of a debit card called Raspberry Pi, that uses a regular mouse and keyboard and connects to either a desktop screen or television. It makes it possible for people of all generations to learn about computer devices and various programming languages like Python and Scratch. It has all the characteristics of a desktop computer, including the potential to browse the Internet, view high-definition video, work with spreadsheets, write documents, and play games. In addition, the Raspberry Pi was involved with several digital maker projects, such as song players and climate forecasting. It is therefore effective in communicating with people around the world. In this article, detailed features and information of the Raspberry Pi have been discussed very clearly as well as each version along with its alternative boards. The hardware components utilized, as well as the software needed to program it, will be discussed in this article (Raspberry Pi board). This article will offer a broad overview of the Raspberry Pi and is helpful for individuals who want to learn and do projects using the Raspberry Pi by giving them a proper guide and details regarding the Pi boards. It serves as the comprehensive guide for the basic ideas and uses of the Raspberry Pi boards.
The brain-computer interface (BCI) technology has emerged as a groundbreaking innovation with profound implications across diverse domains, particularly in health care. By establishing a direct communication pathway between the human brain and external devices, BCI systems offer unprecedented opportunities for diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation, thereby reshaping the landscape of medical practice. However, despite its immense potential, the widespread adoption of BCI technology in clinical settings faces several challenges. These include the need for robust signal acquisition and processing techniques and optimizing user training and adaptation. Overcoming these challenges is crucial to unleashing the complete potential of BCI technology in health care and realizing its promise of personalized, patient-centric care. This review work underscores the transformative potential of BCI technology in revolutionizing medical practice. This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of medical-oriented BCI applications by exploring the various uses of BCI technology and its potential to transform patient care.
Cyberbullying is a growing and significant problem in today’s workplace. Existing automated cyberbullying detection solutions rely on machine learning and deep learning techniques. It is proven that the deep learning-based approaches produce better accuracy for text-based classification than other existing approaches. A novel decentralized deep learning approach called MaLang is developed to detect abusive textual content. MaLang is deployed at two levels in a network: (1) the System Level and (2) the Cloud Level, to tackle the usage of toxic or abusive content on any messaging application within a company’s networks. The system-level module consists of a simple deep learning model called CASE that reads the user’s messaging data and classifies them into abusive and non-abusive categories, without sending any raw or readable data to the cloud. Identified abusive messages are sent to the cloud module with a unique identifier to keep user profiles hidden. The cloud module, called KIPP, utilizes deep learning to determine the probability of a message containing different categories of toxic content, such as: ‘Toxic’, ‘Insult’, ‘Threat’, or ‘Hate Speech’. MaLang achieves a 98.2% classification accuracy that outperforms other current cyberbullying detection systems.
