  • Comparative Analysis and Framework Evaluating Web Single Sign-On Systems
    Comparative Analysis and Framework Evaluating Web Single Sign-On Systems FURKAN ALACA, School of Computing, Queen’s University, [email protected] PAUL C. VAN OORSCHOT, School of Computer Science, Carleton University, [email protected] We perform a comprehensive analysis and comparison of 14 web single sign-on (SSO) systems proposed and/or deployed over the last decade, including federated identity and credential/password management schemes. We identify common design properties and use them to develop a taxonomy for SSO schemes, highlighting the associated trade-offs in benefits (positive attributes) offered. We develop a framework to evaluate the schemes, in which weidentify14 security, usability, deployability, and privacy benefits. We also discuss how differences in priorities between users, service providers (SPs), and identity providers (IdPs) impact the design and deployment of SSO schemes. 1 INTRODUCTION Password-based authentication has numerous documented drawbacks. Despite the many password alternatives, no scheme has thus far offered improved security without trading off deployability or usability [8]. Single Sign-On (SSO) systems have the potential to strengthen web authentication while largely retaining the benefits of conventional password-based authentication. We analyze in depth the state-of-the art ofwebSSO through the lens of usability, deployability, security, and privacy, to construct a taxonomy and evaluation framework based on different SSO architecture design properties and their associated benefits and drawbacks. SSO is an umbrella term for schemes that allow users to rely on a single master credential to access a multitude of online accounts. We categorize SSO schemes across two broad categories: federated identity systems (FIS) and credential managers (CM).

  • A Hybrid Approach to Detect Tabnabbing Attacks
    A Hybrid Approach to Detect Tabnabbing Attacks by Hana Sadat Fahim Hashemi A thesis submitted to the School of Computing in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Queen's University Kingston, Ontario, Canada August 2014 Copyright c Hana Sadat Fahim Hashemi, 2014 Abstract Phishing is one of the most prevalent types of modern attacks, costing significant financial losses to enterprises and users each day. Despite the emergence of various anti-phishing tools and techniques, not only there has been a dramatic increase in the number of phishing attacks but also more sophisticated forms of these attacks have come into existence. One of the most complicated and deceptive forms of phishing attacks is the tabnabbing attack. This newly discovered threat takes advantage of the user's trust and inattention to the open tabs in the browser and changes the appearance of an already open malicious page to the appearance of a trusted website that demands confidential information from the user. As one might imagine, the tabnabbing attack mechanism makes it quite probable for even an attentive user to be lured into revealing his or her confidential information. Few tabnabbing detection and prevention techniques have been proposed thus far. The majority of these techniques block scripts that are susceptible to perform malicious actions or violate the browser security policy. However, most of these techniques cannot effectively prevent the other variant of the tabnabbing attack that is launched without the use of scripts. In this thesis, we propose a hybrid tabnabbing detection approach with the aim i of overcoming the shortcomings of the existing anti-tabnabbing approaches and tech- niques.

  • Why “Mobile” Security Is the Hardest Security
    Tufts University School of Engineering COMP 111 - Security Why “Mobile” Security is the Hardest Security By Kevin Dorosh Abstract Tech-savvy people understand that Android is less safe than iPhone, but most don’t understand how glaring cell phone security is across the board. Android’s particularly lackluster performance is exemplified in the MAC address randomization techniques employed to prevent others from being able to stalk your location through your mobile device. MAC address randomization was introduced by Apple in June of 2014 and by Google in 2015, although (glaringly) only 6% of Android devices today currently have this tech [3]. Sadly, in devices with the tech enabled, the Karma attack can still be exploited. Even worse, both iOS and Android are susceptible to RTS (request to send frame) attacks. Other power users have even seen success setting up desktop GSM towers as intermediaries between mobile devices and real cell phone towers to gather similar information [5]. This paper attempts to explain simple techniques to glean information from other mobile phones that can be used for nefarious purposes from stalking to identity fraud, but also by government agencies to monitor evildoers without their knowledge. As this paper should make clear, mobile security is far more difficult than “stationary security”, for lack of a better term. Even worse, some of these flaws are problems exist with the Wi-Fi protocol itself, but we will still offer solutions to mitigate risks and fix the protocols. As we do more on our phones every day, it becomes imperative that we understand and address these risks.

  • Untraceable Links: Technology Tricks Used by Crooks to Cover Their Tracks
    UNTRACEABLE LINKS: TECHNOLOGY TRICKS USED BY CROOKS TO COVER THEIR TRACKS New mobile apps, underground networks, and crypto-phones are appearing daily. More sophisticated technologies such as mesh networks allow mobile devices to use public Wi-Fi to communicate from one device to another without ever using the cellular network or the Internet. Anonymous and encrypted email services are under development to evade government surveillance. Learn how these new technology capabilities are making anonymous communication easier for fraudsters and helping them cover their tracks. You will learn how to: Define mesh networks. Explain the way underground networks can provide untraceable email. Identify encrypted email services and how they work.
