MAIDS: Mining Alarming Incidents in Data
Streams
Datamining applied to streams
MAIDS is aimed to:
•
•
•
Discover changes, trends and
evolution characteristics in data
streams
Construct clusters and classification
models from data streams
Explore frequent patterns and
similarities among data streams
MAIDS is being applied to NCSA’s
network flow data in order to
be trained to automatically
detect incidents

SELS: A Secure Email List Service
Contact: Himanshu Khurana [email protected]
• Mail List Security
– Confidentiality: Solution using proxy encryption techniques
whereby the plaintext is not exposed at list server; instead, list
server simply transforms encrypted messages
– Integrity and authentication: Solution using digital signatures
where certificate validation is provided by list server
– Anti-spamming: Solution using digital signatures and HMACs
where list server discards any message not sent by a valid
subscriber
• Prototype (Java)
– Email client plugins for JavaMail and Eudora currently being
developed
– Evaluating available list server software for plugin development
