Introduction to Application Security Application Security is the protection of an application against security threats. This is a difficult task, as the application designer or corporate security manager must incorporate defenses against every imaginable attack, whereas an attacker only has to find one vulnerability or point of attack to succeed. Past techniques of protecting applications have certainly been limited, but new technology has been developed to solve this challenging problem. |
Security Impacts of Next-Generation Set-Top Boxes Consumer demand for media-rich home entertainment services is driving innovation and new revenue opportunities in the set-top box (STB) industry. Next-generation STBs will integrate video content from multiple signal sources such as broadcast television, premium video-on-demand and Internet-based services, provide value-added capabilities like time-shifting, and allow content to be distributed to a variety of viewing devices including multi-room TV networks, personal computers, portable media players and other mobile devices. |
Sustainable Device Security: Breaking the Hacker Business Model with Software Security This position paper is for mobile phone and consumer electronics (CE) manufacturers and their reference design suppliers who are enabling devices to play back premium content. An effective security solution should address Integration, Attack Resistance and Attack Mitigation, which together enable sustainable device security and break the hacker business model. Software security solutions are unique in that they enable diversity and renewability that together increase initial attack resistance and minimize the scope and longevity of a successful attack. |

Understanding the Advantages of Cloakware White-Box Cryptography Conventional cryptographic algorithms used to protect software keys and data are ineffective when operating in ‘‘white-box’’ environments, where a hacker has full visibility and control over the executing code. Cloakware White-box technology offers many advantages over other cryptography alternatives, including the unique capability of not revealing keys or data while the cryptographic computations are being observed in complete detail, thus ensuring that sensitive data remains secure. |
