Conference: 11th International Conference on Dependable Systems and Their Applications (DSA2024), 2-3. November 2024, Taicang, Suzhou, China Authors: Siavvas M, Xanthopoulou G, Kalouptsoglou I, Kehagias D, Tzovaras D. Abstract: Compliance with international security standards is essential for ensuring the security of information systems, and thereby their dependability and trustworthiness. Compliance…

Conference: EuroCyberSec 2024, 23. October 2024, Krakow, Poland Authors: Barakat R, Josten S, Schneider M. Abstract: Buffer overflows remain one of the most critical and widespread vulnerabilities in software systems. Traditional fuzzing techniques often lack the precision required to reliably detect buffer overflows. This paper presents BUFFERMONITOR, a novel approach…

Conference: EuroCyberSec 2024, 23. October 2024, Krakow, Poland Authors: Maliga D, Nagy R, Buttyán L. Abstract: In this paper, we present a pipeline that we designed for cleaning and processing large datasets of potentially malicious binaries using access to a rate-limited cloud-based malware analysis platform. Our goal is to efficiently…

Conference: EuroCyberSec 2024, 23. October 2024, Krakow, Poland Authors: Kalouptsoglou I, Siavvas M, Ampatzoglou A, Kehagias D, Chatzigeorgiou A. Abstract: The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has provided new directions for addressing downstream text classification tasks, such as vulnerability prediction, where segments of the source code are classified as…

Conference: EuroCyberSec 2024, 23. October 2024, Krakow, Poland Authors: Siavvas M, Kalouptsoglou I, Gelenbe E, Kehagias D, Tzovaras D. Abstract: Vulnerability prediction is an important mechanism for secure software development, as it enables the early identification and mitigation of software vulnerabilities. Vulnerability prediction models (VPMs) are machine learning (ML) models…
