Social Media Scraper im Einsatz : wie Kriminelle hoch personalisierte Phishing-Attacken vorbereiten
(2021)
Social Engineering ist ein zunehmend beliebter Angriffsvektor, der von Kriminellen verwendet wird, um erfolgreich Menschen zu manipulieren. Das Ziel ist es vordergründig Personen anzugreifen und nicht die IT-Systeme, die sie nutzen. Dazu sammeln die Kriminellen so viele Informationen wie möglich über ihre menschlichen Vorlieben und Interessen. Social-Media-Portale sind dazu eine gute Informationsquelle. In diesem Projekt wird die Vorgehensweise einer entwickelten Software beschrieben, die automatisch einen Link einer Person von offiziellen und seriösen LinkedIn-Profilen zu den privaten Accounts auf Instagram findet. Durch diese Automatisierung und die Analyse der veröffentlichten Inhalte kann eine Risikoeinschätzung gegeben werden, wie viele berufliche und persönliche Informationen für einen erfolgreicheren Social-Engineering-Angriff genutzt werden könnten.
This technical report is about the architecture and integration of very small commercial UAVs (< 40 cm diagonal) in indoor Search and Rescue missions. One UAV is manually controlled by only one single human operator delivering live video streams and image series for later 3D scene modelling and inspection. In order to assist the operator who has to simultaneously observe the environment and navigate through it we use multiple deep neural networks to provide guided autonomy, automatic object detection and classification and local 3D scene modelling. Our methods help to reduce the cognitive load of the operator. We describe a framework for quick integration of new methods from the field of Deep Learning, enabling for rapid evaluation in real scenarios, including the interaction of methods.
Sicheres und vertauenswürdiges Arbeiten im Homeoffice : aktuelle Situation der Cybersicherheitslage
(2021)
Durch die fortschreitende Digitalisierung bekommt die IT einen immer größeren Stellenwert in allen Bereichen. Dadurch steigt die Abhängigkeit von der IT und damit auch das Schadenspotenzial durch Cyberangriffe. Besonders durch die Zunahme des Arbeitsform Homeoffice sowie de Ad-hoc-Verlagerung von Beschäftigten und Geschäftsprozessen in das Homeoffice entstehen durch bisher unzureichende infrastrukturelle Sicherheitsvorkehrungen höhere Risiken. Anbieter von Video-Konferenz- und anderen Kollaborationstools haben durch den enormen Digitalisierungsschub nicht genug Zeit gehabt, ihre Systeme angemessen zu schützen. Dazu kommt, dass die Nutzung von unsicheren oder nicht ausreichend datenschutzkonformen Lösungen, wie Messenger oder sozialen Netzwerken, weitere Risiken für Unternehmen darstellen können. Welche technischen, personellen und organisatorischen Maßnahmen sind also erforderlich, um in der angespannten Lage ein sicheres Homeoffice einzurichten?
As vaccination campaigns are in progress in most countries, hopes to win back more normality are rising. However, the exact path from a pandemic to an endemic virus remains uncertain. While in the pre-vaccination phase many critical indoor situations were avoided by strict control measures, for the transition phase a certain mitigation of the effect of indoor situations seems advisable.
To better understand the mechanisms of indoor airborne transmissions, we present a new time-discrete model to calculate the level of exposure towards infectious SARS-CoV-2 aerosol and carry out a sensitivity analysis for the level of SARS-CoV-2 aerosol exposure in indoor settings. Time limitations and the use of any kind of masks were found to be strong mitigation measures, while how far the effort for a strict use of professional face pieces instead of simple masks can be justified by the additional reduction of the exposure dose remains unclear. Very good ventilation of indoor spaces is mandatory. The definition of sufficient ventilation in regard to airborne SARS-CoV-2 transmission follows other rules than the standards in ventilation design. This means that especially smaller rooms most likely require a significantly greater fresh air supply than usual. Further research on 50% group models in schools is suggested. The benefits of a model in which the students come to school every day, but for a limited time, should be investigated. In terms of window ventilation, it has been found that many short opening periods are not only thermally beneficial, they also reduce the exposure dose. The fresh air supply is driven by the temperature gradient and wind speed. However, the sensitivity towards these parameters is not very high and in times of low wind and temperature gradients, there are no arguments against keep windows open in order to make up for the reduced air flow rate. Long total opening periods and large window surfaces will strongly reduce the exposure. Additionally, the results underline the expectable fact that exposure doses will increase when hygiene and control measures are reduced. It seems advisable to investigate what this means for the infection rate and the fatality of infections in populations with partial immunity. Very basic considerations suggest that the value of aerosol reduction measures may be reduced with very infectious variants such as delta.

The purpose of the paper is to contribute to the inner workings of transformational leadership in the context of organizational change. According to the organizational role theory, role conflict is proposed as a mediator between transformational leadership and affective commitment to change and irritation. Cross-sectional data were collected in a German company in the textiles sector, undergoing a pervasive IT-related change. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling was performed for validity and hypothesis testing. The findings suggest that role conflict acts as a full mediator in the relationship between transformational leadership and affective commitment to change, as well as irritation. Transformational leadership is often discussed in terms of change-oriented leadership. Surprisingly, only a few studies have examined the specific impact of transformational leadership on attitudinal outcomes during change processes, yet. Consequently, research on the underlying psychological mechanisms of the relationship is scarce, too.
Cone-Beam computed tomography (CBCT) has become the most important component of modern radiotherapy for positioning tumor patients directly before treatment. In this work we investigate alternations to standard acquisition protocol, called preset, for patients with a tumor in the thoracic region. The effects of the changed acquisition parameters on the image quality are evaluated using the Catphan Phantom and the image analysis software Smári. The weighted CT dose index (CTDIW) is determined in each case and the effects of the different acquisition protocols on the patient dose are classified accordingly. Additionally, the clinical suitability of alternative presets is tested by investigating correctness of image registration using the CIRS thorax phantom. The results show that a significant dose reduction can be achieved. It can be reduced by 51% for a full rotation by adjusting the gantry speed.
Recommendations for the Development of a Robotic Drinking and Eating Aid - An Ethnographic Study
(2021)
Being able to live independently and self-determined in one’s own home is a crucial factor or human dignity and preservation of self-worth. For people with severe physical impairments who cannot use their limbs for every day tasks, living in their own home is only possible with assistance from others. The inability to move arms and hands makes it hard to take care of oneself, e.g. drinking and eating independently. In this paper, we investigate how 15 participants with disabilities consume food and drinks. We report on interviews, participatory observations, and analyzed the aids they currently use. Based on our findings, we derive a set of recommendations that supports researchers and practitioners in designing future robotic drinking and eating aids for people with disabilities.
Das neuartige Coronavirus SARS-COV-2 wird insbesondere in Innenräumen übertragen. Dabei spielen Aerosole, also kleinste Schwebeteilchen, eine wichtige Rolle. Der längere Aufenthalt in Räumen begünstigt die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Übertragung auch über eine Distanz von mehr als 1,5 m.
Eine Möglichkeit, um die Schwebeteilchen aus der Raumluft zu entfernen sind Raumluftreiniger. Diese gibt es in verschiedenen Ausführungen und Funktionsprinzipien. Das vorliegende Dokument soll dabei helfen den richtigen Gerätetyp für die jeweilige Anwendung zu finden. Dabei geht es zum einen um große Räume hoher Belegungsdichte (z. B. Schulklassen), zum anderen um Restaurants und Freizeitstätten im öffentlichen Raum. Zu guter Letzt kann der Einsatz dieser Geräte auch im privaten Umfeld sinnvoll sein.
Für alle Geräte gilt: Sie unterstützen die Vermeidung von hohen Virenkonzentrationen im Raum. Das ist jedoch kein Ersatz zum regelmäßigen Lüften und der Zufuhr von „frischer Luft“ und damit mehr Sauerstoff für den Raum.
Biomimetics is the interdisciplinary co-operation of various scientific disciplines and fields of innovation, and it aims to solve practical problems using biological models. Biomimetic research and its fields of application are manifold, and the community is made up of a wide range of disciplines, from biologists and engineers to designers. Guidelines and standards can build a common ground for understanding of the field, communication across disciplines, present and future projects and implementation of biomimetic knowledge. Since 2015, three international standards have been published and defined terms and definitions, as well as specific applications. The scientific literature and patents in several databases were searched for citations of the published standards. Standards or technical guidelines on biomimetics are represented both in the scientific literature and in patents. However, taking into account the increasing number of publications in biomimetics, the number of publications (52) citing the international standards is low. This shows that the perception of technical rules is still underrepresented in the academic field. Greater awareness and acceptance of the importance of standards for quality assurance even in the academic environment is discussed, and active participation in the corresponding International Organization for Standardization committee on biomimetics is asked for.
Software updates take an essential role in keeping IT environments secure. If service providers delay or do not install updates, it can cause unwanted security implications for their environments. This paper conducts a large-scale measurement study of the update behavior of websites and their utilized software stacks. Across 18 months, we analyze over 5.6M websites and 246 distinct client- and server-side software distributions. We found that almost all analyzed sites use outdated software. To understand the possible security implications of outdated software, we analyze the potential vulnerabilities that affect the utilized software. We show that software components are getting older and more vulnerable because they are not updated. We find that 95 % of the analyzed websites use at least one product for which a vulnerability existed.
Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP21) is a highly interesting therapeutic growth factor due to its strong osteogenic/osteoinductive potential. However, its pronounced aggregation tendency renders recombinant and soluble production troublesome and complex. While prokaryotic expression systems can provide BMP2 in large amounts, the typically insoluble protein requires complex denaturation-renaturation procedures with medically hazardous reagents to obtain natively folded homodimeric BMP2. Based on a detailed aggregation analysis of wildtype BMP2, we designed a hydrophilic variant of BMP2 additionally containing an improved heparin binding site (BMP2-2Hep-7M). Consecutive optimization of BMP2-2Hep-7M expression and purification enabled production of soluble dimeric BMP2-2Hep-7M in high yield in E. coli. This was achieved by a) increasing protein hydrophilicity via introducing seven point mutations within aggregation hot spots of wildtype BMP2 and a longer N-terminus resulting in higher affinity for heparin, b) by employing E. coli strain SHuffle® T7, which enables the structurally essential disulfide-bond formation in BMP2 in the cytoplasm, c) by using BMP2 variant characteristic soluble expression conditions and application of L-arginine as solubility enhancer. The BMP2 variant BMP2-2Hep-7M shows strongly attenuated although not completely eliminated aggregation tendency.
