Parent's use of strategies to monitor children's activities onlineMaserumule, Ngwanadira Tebogo January 2017 (has links)
Thesis (M.Com. (Information Systems))--University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Commerce, Law and Management, School of Economic and Business Sciences, 2017 / Although studies have been conducted on the effectiveness of different types of filtering software,
limited knowledge is available on parents’ use of strategies to monitor their children’s activities
online. Thus, identifying understanding parents’ use of strategies to monitor children’s activities
online and the extent in which parents use content filtering software will contribute to the body of
knowledge. The purpose of this study is to understand parent’s use of strategies to monitor
children’s activities online and the extent in which they use content filtering software in Gauteng
Province, South Africa. The study adopted a Social Cognitive Theory to develop a conceptual
framework and identify existing theoretical concepts. The conceptual framework adapted
Bandura’s (2001) framework to inform data analysis.
Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and qualitative, thematic content analysis
was used for data analyses. The results of the study indicated that parents do use various
strategies to monitor children’s activities online and further apply knowledge, experience, and
social support as a rationale for using those strategies. The study further revealed that there is a
gap between parents, technology industry and government regarding the use of content filtering
software. Thus, the study recommends parents, industry and government work together to
protecting children online through various strategies and address the concerns regarding the use
of content filtering software. Parents’ need to understand the importance of content filtering
software and discuss this with their children to be able to protect them online without restricting
access to relevant information.

Secure information flow for inter-organisational collaborative environmentsBracher, Shane Unknown Date (has links)
Collaborative environments allow users to share and access data across networks spanning multiple administrative domains and beyond organisational boundaries. This poses several security concerns such as data confidentiality, data privacy and threats to improper data usage. Traditional access control mechanisms focus on centralised systems and implicitly assume that all resources reside in the one domain. This serves as a critical limitation for inter-organisational collaborative environments, which are characteristically decentralised, distributed and heterogeneous. A consequence of the lack of suitable access control mechanisms for inter-organisational collaborative environments is that data owners relinquish all control over data they release. In these environments, we can reasonably consider more complex cases where documents may have multiple contributors, all with differing access control requirements. Facilitating such cases, as well as maintaining control over the document’s content, its structure and its flow path as it circulates through multiple administrative domains, is a non-trival issue. This thesis proposes an architecture model for specifying and enforcing access control restrictions on sensitive data that follows a pre-defined inter-organisational workflow. Our approach is to embed access control enforcement within the workflow object (e.g. the circulating document containing sensitive data) as opposed to relying on each administrative domain to enforce the access control policies. The architecture model achieves this using cryptographic access control – a concept that relies on cryptography to enforce access control policies.

Efficient key management protocols for mobile ad hoc networksErdem, Özkan M. 18 March 2005 (has links)
In this thesis, novel solutions are proposed for key management issues in
mobile ad hoc networks.
Presented Hierarchical Binary Tree (HBT) based model is distributed, self-organizing,
scalable and does not employ online key distribution authority or group
manager. Two different group authentication and group key establishment protocols
are proposed for the users who form an ad hoc group with distributed trust model.
Initially proposed protocols are based on public key cryptography and do not use
specific algorithm. However, members can establish the keys faster with proposed
customized hybrid scheme which combines elliptic curve cryptography, modular
squaring operations and secret key encryption algorithm. Proposed HBT based model
provides complete backward and forward security in case of modification in
membership and it has comparable efficiency to the other HBT based schemes which
employ real time key distribution authority.
Mutual authentication and link encryption can be achieved in wireless sensor
network only with public key cryptography if there are no pre-distributed keys.
However, constraints in resources make fully public key operations not affordable on
sensor. Three different authenticated key establishment protocols are proposed with an
objective of being respectful to constraints. Sensor needs to make only modular or
cyclic convolution multiplications, and expensive public key decryption operation is
executed at the data processing station side. Schemes require small size of code and
achieve the least sensor processing time in comparison with fully public key
cryptography based protocols. / Graduation date: 2005
