Mining Event Tracing for Windows (ETW)

As cyber adversaries are becoming more creative, analysts are required to figure out more innovative ways to detect them to be able to respond before it’s too late. To detect any underlying threat inside a system, data logs are collected showing events and activities occurring inside the system. Adversaries nowadays are capable of evading detection and doing activities that do not always get recorded. Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) offers new data sources to collect logs from that can be of great benefit in detecting adversaries and their movement inside computer systems. ETW is quite flexible and spans many different log providers that can cover a huge deal of logs. This project will work on mining data obtained from ETW logs to create a tool that detects malicious patterns that indicate that a system is compromised or if it’s under attack.

Application of Machine Learning and Data Science for classification of BDD (Behavior Driven Development) Test Development and Execution

Continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) are practices that help software development teams deliver code changes more often and with fewer issues. To ensure that code changes are working as they should, developers use Behavior Driven Development (BDD) tests. But running all these tests against every code change can be time-consuming and costly. This project aims at classifying and categorizing the BDD tests into smaller categories and creating a recommendation system that assigns the right tests to each code change. Instead of running all the tests, the proposed solution would recommend running only the tests that are relevant to the specific code change, resulting in faster and more efficient software development for the partner organization.

Automating Insider Threat monitoring and detection

Insider threat involves individuals who have access to company resources and causes harm to the institution. These insiders can be employees, consultants, contractors, and third-party companies. Different types of insiders include people who intentionally harm the company, those to masquerade as a trusted entity, and those who unintentionally cause harm. Insider threats can lead to the disclosure, alteration, or destruction of sensitive information. To defend against such threats, companies need a system to detect and reduce insider threat risk. This project focuses on developing a system that automates the identification of high-risk groups for insider threats and generating remediation strategies for each risk a group may pose. The project will benefit EQ Bank’s Insider risk team in categorizing and identifying key hallmarks of insiders. This will provide more context to the team in making strategies to mitigate the risk emerging from potential insiders.

Optimizing Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response for Incident response

This research project aims to develop cost-effective solutions to aid organizations in defending against cyber-attacks. With limited resources, security operations centers are struggling to defend against the vast volume of cyber-attacks. The project proposes reducing the work effort and amount of labor needed to perform tasks such as manual inspection and incident responses. By enhancing the functionality of current plugins and developing new ones for the Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response tool, cybersecurity experts will spend less time monitoring and more time implementing better security metrics, resulting in a more secure system and organization. The project’s expected benefit to partner organizations is a reduction in the cost of services and improved cybersecurity measures, resulting in fewer cyber-attacks and better protection for both the organization and its clients.

Monitoring and optimizing environmental conditions for improved CEA productivity

Consistent plant production is critical for plant product quality and marketability. Plant quality (leafy greens, cannabis or other plants) is influenced by the plant species/cultivar and environmental conditions (temperature, relative humidity, light level, light quality, CO2 levels, water quality and quantity, nutrient levels and air movement). Understanding existing variability of the environmental conditions is critical for any plant production operation with the knowledge quantified in one location transferrable to other locations. The objective of this study is to evaluate and monitor the environmental conditions in a CEA operation and modify existing sensor systems to understand temporal and spatial variability.

Adversarial Threats on a Penetration Testing Solution

Malicious adversaries are increasingly aiming to bypass security controls. There is a race to “owning” vulnerable machines and it is advantageous to malicious adversaries if the existing vulnerabilities are not patched. The research will be performed on a vulnerability assessment and management platform, specifically designed to assist organizations in identifying and mitigating cyber risks. It is unclear how effective the solution is against malicious insiders. For instance, in an enterprise environment, a malicious insider may circumvent the alerts that the platform may generate if it has taken over that machine. The research will focus on testing exploit techniques that can allow a threat actor to bypass the platform’s detection mechanisms and establish malware and persistence mechanisms within the target. By taking this approach, the project aims to identify the susceptibility of the platform to insider attacks and develop strategies to address them before malicious actors can exploit them. Proactively identifying and mitigating potential cyber threats is critical in today’s digital landscape, and this research can help organizations better understand and address their vulnerabilities.

Threat actor group profiling

Understanding the current panorama of threat actor groups worldwide is critical to building efficient cybersecurity programs. Information about threat actor groups’ motivations, tools, tactics and techniques they use to attack, and the type of targets they have in their sights provide valuable information to cybersecurity teams. To achieve this goal is essential to generate intelligence processing such information. Unfortunately, humans cannot process the amount of data generated daily, so implementing machine learning models is required for data processing and categorizing threat actor groups. With the proper profiling of threat actor groups, cybersecurity teams will strengthen their policies, security controls and processes, efficiently targeting their resources to threats that could impact them instead of wasting resources on pointless activities.

Towards Fully Automated Tumor and Organ-at-Risk Detection and Segmentation from PSMA PET and SPECT Scans of Prostate Cancer Patients

Prostate cancer is the third deadliest cancer in men and early detection is crucial. PSMA is a protein that is highly present in prostate cells, making it a promising target for imaging and treatment. Total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) is a measure of tumors’ characteristics, but it is currently not measured in clinical settings due to the labor-intensive and time-consuming process of manually delineating the borders of all tumors in PET images. AI can automate this process, but it struggles with low-quality images and small tumors. Our proposal is to develop AI-based object detection methods to locate lesions before segmenting them to improve accuracy. PSMA can also be used for personalized radioligand therapy, where radioactive drugs attached to PSMA molecules are injected into the patient to kill cancer cells. AI can aid in automating the process of manually delineating the borders of tumors and organs at risk in PET images, simplifying existing protocols, and predicting patient response and outcome. Personalized radioligand therapy could maximize cancer irradiation while minimizing toxicity to healthy organs, leading to better efficacy.
