Abstract: Enhancement of web browser extension analysis capabilities, such as security application analysis, is realized by encapsulating the extension with a wrapper function that defines entry and exits points within the source code of the extension. By wrapping the web browser extension in a function that defines entry and exit points, the present invention enables the use of commercial SAST tools/engines and any other application which desires to analyze the web browser extension and/or extract data therefrom. The web browser extension is programmatically analyzed to identify the entry and exit points and, in response, the wrapper function is generated that defines the entry and exits points and the web browser extension is encapsulated with the wrapper function.

Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for testing an application with dynamically linked security tests. The present invention may be configured to perform, using a request engine, based on the first data, and based on test protocols stored in a first data structure, a first security test on an application. The present invention may be further configured to determine, based on determining that the application failed the first security test and based on a second data structure, whether the first security test is linked to one or more other security tests, where the second data structure includes security test sequences linking security tests and/or data to transmit from the first security test to the one or more other security tests, and provide, to the first queue, one or more other security tests to which the first security test is linked.

Abstract: Techniques for enforcing stratified aircraft security are presented. The techniques are performed using an aircraft-based authentication and authorization unit and a wireless transceiver, where the authentication and authorization unit includes an electronically stored machine learning classifier. The techniques include: receiving and verifying authentication data for an employee from a mobile access device; receiving employee data from the mobile access device, the employee data including at least information representing an access event of the employee with the aircraft; providing an input to the machine learning classifier, the input including at least aircraft data and the employee data; obtaining an output from the machine learning classifier, the output indicating a level of access authorized; and providing an alert in response to a level of access by the at least one employee for the access event exceeding the level of access authorized.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for authenticating aircraft communications using detected difference of on board electronics. One embodiment is a method that includes detecting a request for an exchange of data between an aircraft and an off-board system, and selecting a Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) of the aircraft based on at least one parameter of the request. The method also includes issuing a challenge to a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) connected with at least one electronic component of the LRU, and obtaining a hardware signature based on a response of the at least one electronic component of the LRU to the challenge. The PUF derives the hardware signature from a unique physical property of the at least one electronic component. The method further includes validating the hardware signature to authenticate the request and initiate the exchange of data between the aircraft and the off-board system.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products are provided to authenticate and determine the integrity a software part. In this regard, a software part is authenticated and its integrity is determined by determining a first hash of the digital data that comprises the software part. If the air vehicle lacks data communications connectivity with an off-board security system, the method determines the authenticity and integrity of the software part by decrypting an encrypted hash of a software part in accordance with a public-private key pair to create a decrypted hash, comparing the first hash with the decrypted hash and transmitting the first hash to the off-board security system once data communications connectivity is established. Conversely, if the air vehicle has data communications connectivity with the off-board security system, the method determines the integrity of the software part by transmitting the first hash to the off-board security system for comparison with a whitelist.

Abstract: A three-piece roof assembly is provided for racing cars in which the two side members are fixedly supported on the frame of the vehicle and the center member is positionable at a selectable canted angle relative to the side members. The center member is formed with laterally extended flanges that overlap the side members to maintain structural integrity between the center member and the respective side members. The canting of the center member creates a gap that varies in width from front to rear. The process for canting a race car roof is significantly simplified and involves fixing the side members to the frame of the vehicle, then positioning the center member at the desired angular orientation, and fixing the center member relative to the side members. The variable width gap between the center member and the side members can be filled with weld material and painted.
