P4Control: Line-Rate Cross-Host Attack Prevention via In-Network Information Flow Control Enabled by Programmable Switches and eBPF
THE CHALLENGE
Modern targeted attacks, such as Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), often use multiple hosts as stepping stones and move laterally across them to gain deeper access to the network to access unauthorized resources or exfiltrate sensitive data. These sophisticated cross-host attacks present significant challenges to existing security...

BystandAR: Protecting Bystander Visual Data Privacy in Augmented Reality Systems
THE CHALLENGE
Well-intentioned AR users often unknowingly violate bystander privacy by collecting and sharing sensitive data. Some apps use machine learning to make inferences without user knowledge, further compromising privacy. The current permissions within the state of the art are flawed as colluding apps deceive users to access and share data...
