Side-Channel Attacks Survive Noise Cancellation in 3D Printers
Eric Yocam, Varghese Vaidyan, Micah Flack +2
Active Motor Noise Cancellation (AMNC) is a noise-reduction feature shipped in commercial fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printers. Because it suppresses the acoustic emissions…
Bridging the Smart City Cybersecurity Data Gap Through AI-Driven Synthetic Dataset Generation
Stephanie Polczynski, John D. Hastings, Varghese Vaidyan +1
Smart cities rely on interconnected cyber-physical systems that integrate sensors, IoT devices, cloud platforms, and AI-driven services and decision-making. While these systems enh…
Superspace Concentration and Adversarial Robustness in Quantum Algorithms
Eric Yocam, Christian Yocam, Varghese Vaidyan +3
We study superspace concentration as a quantum resource, formalized through the focus measure F(\r{ho}) = λ_max(\r{ho}_super) - the largest eigenvalue of the reduced superspace st…
Context-Based Adversarial Attacks on AI Code Generators: Vulnerability Analysis and Implications
Walther A. Del Orbe, John D. Hastings, Varghese Vaidyan
AI-powered code generation systems have transformed software development but introduce critical inference-time security vulnerabilities. This research presents a systematic investi…
TriSweep: A Four-Drone Swarm Framework for Electromagnetic Side-Channel Analysis
Eric Yocam, Varghese Vaidyan
Electromagnetic (EM) side-channel analysis traditionally assumes a stationary, close-proximity probe - a threat model that underestimates aerial adversaries. TriSweep is a simulati…
Beyond Collection: Measuring the Detection Efficacy of Modern Security Logging Standards
Ryan Holeman, John Hastings, Varghese Mathew Vaidyan
Effective security logging is crucial for the timely and accurate detection of cyber threats; however, the relative effectiveness of various industry-standard logging frameworks re…
