MH-FSF: a Unified Framework for Overcoming Benchmarking and Reproducibility Limitations in Feature Selection Evaluation

Feature selection is vital for building effective predictive models, as it reduces dimensionality and emphasizes key features. However, current research often suffers from limited benchmarking and reliance on proprietary datasets. This severely hinders reproducibility and can negatively impact...

Detecting Hard-Coded Credentials in Software Repositories Via LLMs

Software developers frequently hard-code credentials such as passwords, generic secrets, private keys, and generic tokens in software repositories, even though it is strictly advised against due to the severe threat to the security of the software. These credentials create attack surfaces...

AI-Based Software Vulnerability Detection: a Systematic Literature Review

Software vulnerabilities in source code pose serious cybersecurity risks, prompting a shift from traditional detection methods e.g., static analysis, rule-based matching to AI-driven approaches. This study presents a systematic review of software vulnerability detection SVD research from 2018 to...

"Vcd2df" -- Leveraging Data Science Insights for Hardware Security Research

In this work, we hope to expand the universe of security practitioners of open-source hardware by creating a bridge from hardware design languages HDLs to data science languages like Python and R through novel libraries that convert VCD value change dump files into data frames, the expected input...

EMBER2024 -- a Benchmark Dataset for Holistic Evaluation of Malware Classifiers

A lack of accessible data has historically restricted malware analysis research, and practitioners have relied heavily on datasets provided by industry sources to advance. Existing public datasets are limited by narrow scope - most include files targeting a single platform, have labels supporting...

Chances and Challenges of the Model Context Protocol in Digital Forensics and Incident Response

Large language models hold considerable promise for supporting forensic investigations, but their widespread adoption is hindered by a lack of transparency, explainability, and reproducibility. This paper explores how the emerging Model Context Protocol can address these challenges and support th...
