An Information-Theoretical View of Network-Aware Malware Attacks
This work investigates three aspects: (a) a network vulnerability as the non-uniform vulnerable-host distribution, (b) threats, i.e., intelligent malwares that exploit such a vulne...

Using hardware vulnerability factors to enhance AVF analysis
Fault tolerance is now a primary design constraint for all major microprocessors. One step in determining a processor’s compliance to its failure rate target is measuring the Ar...

How to tell if your cloud files are vulnerable to drive crashes
This paper presents a new challenge—verifying that a remote server is storing a file in a fault-tolerant manner, i.e., such that it can survive hard-drive failures. We describe...
