The field of digital forensics is rapidly evolving and continues to gain significance in both the law enforcement and the scientific community. Being intrinsically interdisciplinary, it draws upon a wide range of subject areas such as information & communication technologies, law, social sciences and business administration. With this in mind, the workshop on Digital Forensics and Incident Analysis (WDFIA) specifically addresses this multi-facetted aspect, with papers invited from the full spectrum of issues relating to digital forensics and incident analysis. This book represents the proceedings from the 2012 event, which was held in Crete, Greece. A total of 13 papers are included, spanning a range of topics including systems and network investigation, services and applications and supporting the forensic process. All of the papers were subject to double-blind peer review, with each being reviewed by at least two members of the international programme committee.

This book contains high-quality peer-reviewed papers of the International Conference on Big Data, Machine Learning and their Applications (ICBMA 2019) held at Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology Allahabad, Prayagraj, India, during 29–31 May 2020. The book provides significant contributions in a structured way so that prospective readers can understand how these techniques are used in finding solutions to complex engineering problems. The book covers the areas of big data, machine learning, bio-inspired algorithms, artificial intelligence and their applications.

This book provides a survey on research, development, and trends in innovative computing in communications engineering and computer science. It features selected and expanded papers from the EAI International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering 2018 (COMPSE 2018), with contributions by top global researchers and practitioners in the field. The content is of relevance to computer science graduates, researchers and academicians in computer science and engineering. The authors discuss new technologies in computer science and engineering that have reduced the dimension of data coverage worldwide, reducing the gaps and coverage of domains globally. They discuss how these advances have also contributed to strength in prediction, analysis, and decision in the areas such as Technology, Management, Social Computing, Green Computing, and Telecom. Contributions show how nurturing the research in technology and computing is essential to finding the right pattern in the ocean of data. Focuses on research areas of innovative computing and its application in engineering and technology; Includes contributions from researchers in computing and engineering from around the world; Features selected and expanded papers from EAI International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering 2018 (COMPSE 2018).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Digital Forensics and Cyber Crime, ICDF2C 2015, held in Seoul, South Korea, in October 2015. The 14 papers and 3 abstracts were selected from 40 submissions and cover diverse topics ranging from tactics of cyber crime investigations to digital forensic education, network forensics, and international cooperation in digital investigations.

This book contains the proceedings of the Tenth International Network Conference (INC 2014), which was held in Plymouth, UK, in July 2014. A total of 13 papers were accepted for inclusion in the conference (with a further three papers included in these proceedings from the Ninth International Workshop on Digital Forensics and Incident Analysis). The main topics of the book include: Network Technologies; Mobile and Wireless Networking; Security and Privacy; Applications and Impacts. The papers address state-of-the-art research and applications of network technology, arising from both the academic and industrial domains. These proceedings should consequently be of interest to network practitioners, researchers, academics, and technical managers involved in the design, development and use of network systems.

This book focuses on theory, practice and applications in the broad areas of advanced computing techniques and intelligent engineering. This book includes 74 scholarly articles which were accepted for presentation from 294 submissions in the 5th ICACIE during 25–27 June 2020 at Université des Mascareignes (UdM), Mauritius, in collaboration with Rama Devi Women’s University, Bhubaneswar, India, and S‘O’A Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar, India. This book brings together academicians, industry persons, research scholars and students to share and disseminate their knowledge and scientific research work related to advanced computing and intelligent engineering. It helps to provide a platform to the young researchers to find the practical challenges encountered in these areas of research and the solutions adopted. The book helps to disseminate the knowledge about some innovative and active research directions in the field of advanced computing techniques and intelligent engineering, along with some current issues and applications of related topics.

Malware analysis is big business, and attacks can cost a company dearly. When malware breaches your defenses, you need to act quickly to cure current infections and prevent future ones from occurring. For those who want to stay ahead of the latest malware, Practical Malware Analysis will teach you the tools and techniques used by professional analysts. With this book as your guide, you'll be able to safely analyze, debug, and disassemble any malicious software that comes your way. You'll learn how to: –Set up a safe virtual environment to analyze malware –Quickly extract network signatures and host-based indicators –Use key analysis tools like IDA Pro, OllyDbg, and WinDbg –Overcome malware tricks like obfuscation, anti-disassembly, anti-debugging, and anti-virtual machine techniques –Use your newfound knowledge of Windows internals for malware analysis –Develop a methodology for unpacking malware and get practical experience with five of the most popular packers –Analyze special cases of malware with shellcode, C++, and 64-bit code Hands-on labs throughout the book challenge you to practice and synthesize your skills as you dissect real malware samples, and pages of detailed dissections offer an over-the-shoulder look at how the pros do it. You'll learn how to crack open malware to see how it really works, determine what damage it has done, thoroughly clean your network, and ensure that the malware never comes back. Malware analysis is a cat-and-mouse game with rules that are constantly changing, so make sure you have the fundamentals. Whether you're tasked with securing one network or a thousand networks, or you're making a living as a malware analyst, you'll find what you need to succeed in Practical Malware Analysis.
