ForToo (Forensics Tools Against Illegal Use of the Internet):
The project, which is funded by the European Union DG for Home
Affairs, aims to develop digital forensics tools that will identify,
analyze and visualize illegal activities on the Internet. The
objectives of this project are: (a) to design and prototype a toolkit
that will detect illegal activities both proactively and after-the-fact,
(b) to identify the source and perpetrators of the illegal activities,
both in terms of virtual/network and, as much as possible, physical
location, (c) to profile the expertise and motive of the attackers,
(d) to present the relevant information in a way that will be usable
by investigating authorities, and (e) to maximize the impact of the
project through aggressive and effective dissemination of the
project's results.
(Duration June 2011 - May 2014, amount: € 750,000)
NSF/CAREER:
Home Area Network Gateway Architecture - I was PI for
this NSF project whose key objective was to investigate technologies and
methodologies with which the home network can be protected, and enrich the
computer science curriculum with security-focused experimental computer
science material.
(Duration July 2002 - June 2008, amount $ 367,393).
CHATS/CoSAK (DARPA) - I was CoPI in the
Code Security Analysis Kit
project whose objective was to provide the open source developers with tools
to allow them to produce code that is more robust and secure. This was achieved
via the CoSAK framework for code analysis and constraint enforcement. CoSAK
may be used to protect systems from code that strays outside its operational limits.
(Duration July 2001 - Oct. 2003, amount $ 622,873).
