However, no data exists onwho is most vulnerable to SMiShing. Prior […]
Extracting Actionable Cyber Threat Intelligence with Large Language Models
Oct 5th 11:30-12:30 WWH 335 Actionable cyber threat intelligence is vital for effective defense. In practice, indicators of compromises (IP addresses or domains) are used to alert potential malicious activities. However, such alerts lack important context for defenders to take effective actions. For example, given an alert concerning an IP address, a defender wants to […]
A Realistic Testbed for Replicating Large-scale Botnet DDoS Attacks
Thursday Sep 21 11:30-12:30 WWH 335 DDoSim, a simulation testbed for mimicking real-world, large-scale botnet DDoS attacks, is presented. DDoSim offers various capabilities, including running user-specified software, testing botnet recruitment exploits, and measuring the severity of resulting DDoS attacks.
