Countering Insider Threats - Handling Insider Threats Using Dynamic, Run-Time Forensics

Abstract

The primary objective of this project was to research and develop applied computer forensic approaches for preventing and detecting insider threats in sensitive organizations in conjunction with advanced access control systems such as Fine-grained, Active, and Scalable Access Control (FASAC). Access Control is the fundamental basis of computer security, but still remains a relative weakness in dealing with everyday threats, especially those posed by insiders. To address the insider threats against critical information systems, an advanced access control approach was investigated that supports fine-grained, active, and scalable access control services.
