  • Assessing and Improving Security and Privacy for Smartphone Users
    Hasselt University Transnationale Universiteit Limburg Assessing and improving security and privacy for smartphone users Dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science, at Hasselt University to be defended by Bram Bonné on August 31, 2017 Promotor: Prof. Dr. Wim Lamotte Co-promotor: Prof. Dr. Peter Quax 2011 – 2017 Abstract Smartphone and other mobile device usage has increased greatly in the past years. This increased popularity has also led to a changed security and privacy landscape, with more personal devices being outfitted with a plethora of sensors that allow to track our every step, and a vastly larger attack surface than older, more static devices. This allows a variety of actors, including malicious hackers, state-sponsored entities and legitimate service providers, to have access to a large trove of mobile user data. In this dissertation, we assess the current state of privacy and security on smartphones, we create and gauge awareness of smartphone users around these issues, and we provide so- lutions to enhance security and privacy on mobile devices. To show the ease with which smartphone users’ data can be gathered surreptitiously, we describe a mechanism for invol- untarily tracking visitors at mass events making use of Wi-Fi technology, and show that this can be implemented at a low cost, allowing location tracking of 29% of visitors at a major music festival. We show how these techniques can be (ab)used in different scenarios (notably, by using the gathered data to compare different opportunistic routing algorithms that can be used for ad-hoc communication at mass events), and provide an open platform to researchers that can be used to quantify the impact and remediation rate of similar wireless protocol vulnerabilities.

  • Festival Industry and Funding Models
    Festival Industry and Funding Models This research report focussed on providing an insight into the music festival industry and in particular associated business models. Industry Overview UK Music estimates that 3.9 million people attended a festival in the year 20161. There are no official counts of how many music festivals are held in the UK, however they have become increasingly popular and estimates sit at well over 500 (see further sources). As there are many different forms of music festival such as single day festivals and bi-annual ones, it can be quite difficult to measure. One website tracking UK music festivals identifies there are 116 music festivals in the period of June 2018-2019 in the South West alone2. Due to the many music festivals in operation at present, one challenge that those in the industry face is market saturation. This has several potential consequences attached, primarily making it more difficult to sell tickets. Additionally, the associated costs such as hiring musicians, venues and catering also become higher as competition increases3. One of the ways the success of a music festival can be measured is through music tourism; non-local people travelling to attend a festival. Money is both injected into the festival and local economy from attendees that would otherwise not have been in the location. Music tourists contribute to the local economy both directly, through purchasing tickets and spending money at the festival, and indirectly such as through travel, accommodation and spending in the local economy. This value is distributed differently around the UK, with hubs like the South East and the South West having a greater share of music tourists than areas like the North East.

Working between tours at studios in Seattle, Los Angeles and Charlottesville, Dave Matthews Band chose to record with several different producers, including John Alagia, Mark Batson, Rob Cavallo and Rob Evans. The cover art for Come Tomorrow is by Béatrice Coron, who creates narrative allegories in silhouette to render archetypal stories. Dave Matthews Band will be previewing songs from Come Tomorrow during its North American tour, which kicks off on May 18 at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, TX. Every online ticket order for the 2018 summer tour, purchased by May 17, 2018, will include a choice of CD or digital download of the new album when it is released. Tickets are on sale now. The headline run includes two-night stands in Denver, CO and West Palm Beach, FL, and a three-night stand over Labor Day weekend at The Gorge in Quincy, WA – a tradition beloved by both the band and its fans. The tour will wrap up with a sold-out show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA on September 10. See below for itinerary or visit http://davematthewsband.com.
