According to the Thales Consumer Digital Trust Index 2025, global confidence in digital services is slipping fast. After surveying more than 14,000 consumers across 15 countries, the findings are clear: no sector earned high trust ratings from even half its users. Most industries are seeing trust erode — or, at best, stagnate. In an era.. The post The Trust Crisis: Why Digital Services Are Losing Consumer Confidence appeared first on Security Boulevard.

Peak e-commerce season hits retailers every year just as the Halloween decorations start to come down. Unsurprisingly, cyber criminals see this time as an opportunity to strike, and criminal activity online spikes alongside sales. Shockingly, 4.6% of attempted e-commerce transactions during the 2024 Black Friday period were suspected to be digital fraud. In the UK..

Session4A: IoT Security Authors, Creators & Presenters: Eman Maali (Imperial College London), Omar Alrawi (Georgia Institute of Technology), Julie McCann (Imperial College London) PAPER Evaluating Machine Learning-Based IoT Device Identification Models for Security Applications With the proliferation of IoT devices, network device identification is essential for effective network management and security. Many exhibit performance degradation despite the potential of machine learning-based IoT device identification solutions. Degradation arises from the assumption of static IoT environments that do not account for the diversity of real-world IoT networks, as devices operate in various modes and evolve over time. In this paper, we evaluate current IoT device identification solutions using curated datasets and representative features across different settings. We consider key factors that affect real-world device identification, including modes of operation, spatio-temporal variations, and traffic sampling, and organise them into a set of attributes by which we can evaluate current solutions. We then use machine learning explainability techniques to pinpoint the key causes of performance degradation. This evaluation uncovers empirical evidence of what continuously identifies devices, provides valuable insights, and practical recommendations for network operators to improve their IoT device identification in operational deployments ABOUT NDSS The Network and Distributed System Security Symposium (NDSS) fosters information exchange among researchers and practitioners of network and distributed system security. The target audience includes those interested in practical aspects of network and distributed system security, with a focus on actual system design and implementation. A major goal is to encourage and enable the Internet community to apply, deploy, and advance the state of available security technologies. Our thanks to the Network and Distributed System Security (NDSS) Symposium for publishing their Creators, Authors and Presenter’s superb NDSS Symposium 2025 Conference content on the Organizations’ YouTube Channel.

It is the right time to talk about this. Cloud-based Artificial Intelligence, or specifically those big, powerful Large Language Models we see everywhere, they’ve completely changed the game. They’re more than just a new application tier. They’re an entirely new attack surface. You’ve moved your critical applications to the public cloud. You did it for..

Every November and December, online retailers gear up for their biggest revenue surge of the year. But while the traffic and transactions climb, so does the threat level. Cybercriminals know exactly when customer activity (and the pressure on retail systems) is at its highest and they’re automating their attacks to exploit it.
