Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8935: Multi-Feature Fusion-Based Visual Security Index for Perceptual Image Encryption

4+ hour, 6+ min ago   (308+ words) Visual security quantification is critical for evaluating perceptual image encryption schemes. Traditional visual security indices often rely on partial feature extraction and fixed-position block matching, which limits their capability to capture localized information leakage. To address these limitations, this paper…...

Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Pages 8609: Enhancing Communication Security in Automotive Software: A Hybrid SecOC and MACsec Integration for SOME/IP over Ethernet

1+ week, 4+ day ago   (757+ words) Automotive Ethernet networks increasingly rely on SOME/IP within the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform for service-oriented ECU communication, yet SOME/IP lacks built-in security, exposing systems to Man-in-the-Middle (MitM), replay, spoofing, and eavesdropping attacks. As of AUTOSAR Release R22-11, no standardised security…...
