System logs are crucial for forensic analysis, but to be useful, they need to be tamper-proof.
To protect the logs, a number of secure logging systems have been proposed from both …

Databases contain an enormous amount of structured data. While the use of forensic
analysis on the file system level for creating (partial) timelines, recovering deleted data and …

Security analytics is a catchall term for vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection
leveraging security logs from a wide array of Security Analytics Sources (SASs), which …

Smart homes include hundreds of devices that generate messages, and communicate with
each other and the world outside the home, to provide a highly functional, optimized and …

We present four attacks on three cryptographic schemes intended for securing log files
against illicit retroactive modification. Our first two attacks regard the LogFAS scheme by …

The goal of cyber attack investigation is to fully reconstruct the details of an attack, so we can
trace back to its origin, and recover the system from the damage caused by the attack …

Log files are the primary source of information when the past operation of a computing
system needs to be determined. Kee** correct and accurate log files is important for after …

Sequential key generators produce a forward-secure sequence of symmetric cryptographic
keys and are traditionally based on hash chains. An inherent disadvantage of such …

With industrial control systems (ICSs) being increasingly networked, the need for sound
forensic capabilities for such systems increases. One vital source of information in forensic …

Audit logs play a crucial role in the security of computer systems and are targeted by the
attackers due to their forensic value. Digital signatures are essential tools to ensure the …
