Exploiting Traffic Light Coordination and Auctions for Intersection and Emergency Vehicle Management in a Smart City Mixed Scenario
Authors: Muzzini Filippo , Montangero Manuela
Published: March 2024

IoT (Internet-of-Things)-powered devices can be exploited to connect vehicles to smart city infrastructure, allowing vehicles to share their intentions while retrieving contextual information about diverse aspects of urban viability. In this paper, we place ourselves in a transient scenario in which next-generation vehicles that are able to communicate with the surrounding infrastructure coexist with traditional vehicles with limited or absent IoT capabilities. We focus on intersection management, in particular on reusing existing traffic lights empowered by a new management system. We propose an auction-based system in which traffic lights are able to exchange contextual information with vehicles and other nearby traffic lights with the aim of reducing average waiting times at intersections and consequently overall trip times. We use bid propagation to improve standard vehicle trip times while allowing emergency vehicles to free up the way ahead without needing ad hoc system for such vehicle, only an increase in their budget. The proposed system is then tested against two baselines: the classical Fixed Time Control system currently adopted for traffic lights, and an auction strategy that does not exploit traffic light coordination. We performed a large set of experiments using the well known MATSim transport simulator on both a synthetic Manhattan map and on a map we built of an urban area located in Modena, Northern Italy. Our results show that the proposed approach performs better than the classical fixed time control system and the auction strategy that does not exploit coordination among traffic lights.
Towards Automating Personal Exercise Assessment and Guidance with Affordable Mobile Technology

Published: March 2024

Physical activity (PA) offers many benefits for human health. However, beginners often feel discouraged when introduced to basic exercise routines. Due to lack of experience and personal guidance, they might abandon efforts or experience musculoskeletal injuries. Additionally, due to phenomena such as pandemics and limited access to supervised exercise spaces, especially for the elderly, the need to develop personalized systems has become apparent. In this work, we develop a monitored physical exercise system that offers real-time guidance and recommendations during exercise, designed to assist users in their home environment. For this purpose, we used posture estimation interfaces that recognize body movement using a computer or smartphone camera. The chosen pose estimation model was BlazePose. Machine learning and signal processing techniques were used to identify the exercise currently being performed. The performances of three machine learning classifiers were evaluated for the exercise recognition task, achieving test-set accuracy between 94.76% and 100%. The research methodology included kinematic analysis (KA) of five selected exercises and statistical studies on performance and range of motion (ROM), which enabled the identification of deviations from the expected exercise execution to support guidance. To this end, data was collected from 57 volunteers, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of exercise performance. By leveraging the capabilities of the BlazePose model, an interactive tool for patients is proposed that could support rehabilitation programs remotely.
Closing the Water Balance with a Precision Small-Scale Field Lysimeter

Published: March 2024

We developed a set of two precision, small-scale, water balance lysimeters to provide accurate measurements of bare soil evaporation. Each lysimeter comprises a soil tank, a balance assembly with load cell, a wicking drainage system, and a stilling well to measure drained water. Fiberglass wicks installed at the bottom of the soil tanks provide −60 cm of tension to the base of the soil column, and soil water drainage is quantified to close the water balance within the lysimeter. The calibrated lysimeters return mass changes with uncertainties ranging from 3 to 8 g, corresponding to uncertainties of 0.02–0.05 mm of water. Installed at a semi-arid site in northern Nevada, the two lysimeters are filled with uniform construction sand and silt loam. Over a six-month pilot observation period, bare soil evaporation rates of 0.19 and 0.40 mm/day were measured for the construction sand and silt loam, respectively, which is consistent with meteorological data and models of potential evapotranspiration at the site. The design of the lysimeter can be adapted to specific research goals or site restrictions, and these instruments can contribute significantly to our ability to close the soil water balance.
The Impact of Urban Design on Utilitarian and Leisure Walking—The Relative Influence of Street Network Connectivity and Streetscape Features
Authors: Pereira Mauro F. , Santana Paula , Vale David S.
Published: March 2024

Road network connectivity determines the accessibility of urban activities for pedestrians, while streetscape characteristics have an impact on route attractiveness. Methods used to measure the influence of connectivity and streetscape characteristics on walking behavior differ substantially, while trip purpose is a key factor. This paper explores the respective contributions of network connectivity and streetscape features to explain leisure walking and utilitarian trips on 740 street segments in Santarém (Portugal). The indicators cover the most commonly used factors in walkability indexes, such as density, diversity, design, and accessibility. The streetscape features measure imageability, enclosure, human scale, transparency, and complexity. The walking trip information was collected via survey. The results show that connectivity measures have a greater overall explanatory power for both trip motives. However, the findings highlight the need to consider a variety of design indicators to explain walking behavior due to the higher explanation power of the model with two types of indicators.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been extensively researched, particularly with regard to COVID-19 vaccines. However, issues with logistics and availability might cause delays in vaccination programs. Thus, the efficacy and safety of half-dose heterologous mRNA should be explored. This was an open-label observational study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of half-dose mRNA-1273 as a booster vaccine among adults aged >18 years who underwent a complete primary SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) vaccination regimen with CoronaVac® and ChAdOx1-S. Adverse events (AEs), seropositivity rate, seroconversion, geometric mean titer (GMT) of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies, neutralizing antibodies, and T cells (CD4+ and CD8+) specific for SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed. Two hundred subjects were included in the final analysis, with 100 subjects in each priming vaccine group. Most of the AEs were mild, with systemic manifestations occurring between 1 and 7 days following vaccination. A significant difference was observed in the GMT and seropositivity rate following booster dose administration between the two groups. CD8+/CD3+, IFN (interferon)-producing CD8+, and TNF (tumor necrosis factor)-producing CD8+ cells showed significant increases in both groups. The administration of the half-dose mRNA-1273 booster is safe and effective in increasing protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This means that every time there is an improvement in lifestyle, it will increase consumer purchasing decisions. This happens because of changes in increasingly modern times so that people compete to follow lifestyle trends. Then, consumer behavior (X2) has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. This means that the higher the consumer behavior in generation Z, the higher the level of purchasing decisions. Generation z tends to be highly influenced by social factors and trends. Shopee, as an e-commerce platform that is popular among them, often displays the latest trends, viral products, and limited special offers. And provides easy and practical accessibility for generation z in Bandar Lampung. By using a smartphone and an internet connection, they can search, compare and buy the products they want. This makes it easier for them to fulfill their consumption needs and desires.
Communiquer l’irreprésentable
Authors: Kraemer André , Kraemer Bernadette
Published: March 2024

En psychodrame, jouer n’est pas représenter mais s’exposer à l’inconnu, au dehors, à l’autre. Communiquer dans un corps à corps l’irreprésentable. La rencontre psychodramatique est un double jeu, c’est-à-dire une double affirmation. Les signes valent comme affects, traces, intensités ; possibilisent l’oubli. Dans cette économie hétérogène, paradoxale, celle du simulacre et de la fiction, la folie s’expérimente autrement que dans l’effondrement psychotique.
The Social Hunger : Les psychothérapies de groupe d’enfants aux Etats-Unis
Authors: Chapelier Jean-Bernard
Published: March 2024

Ce travail présente les principales techniques de groupe utilisées chez l’enfant aux Etats-Unis. Il est montré comment, à partir de techniques utilisant l’activité et la bonne «expérience émotionnelle correctrice», les auteurs ont évolué vers des groupes d’inspiration psychanalytique, utilisant de plus en plus l’interprétation et le transfert comme leviers thérapeutiques.

Cette tendance n’empêche pas les thérapeutes d’adapter ces techniques groupales en fonction de la pathologie des enfants, proposant quelquefois, selon les indications, des cadres très directifs. Enfin, il est à noter combien, à la différence des théories développées en Europe, les réponses groupales ne sont ni conceptualisées, ni même utilisées par le plus grand nombre des thérapeutes américains.
Context, content and process : interrelationships between small and large groups in a transcultural workshop
Authors: Brown Dennis
Published: March 2024

Contexte, contenu et processus : l'articulation en petits et grands groupes dans un séminaire transculturel.

Cet article décrit la structure d’un séminaire transculturel basé sur des groupes linguistiques. Les petits groupes étaient relativement homogènes au plan linguistiques, alors que les pléniers étaient hétérogènes. Les thèmes et les élaborations dans les petits et grands groupes se reflétaient les uns les autres, bien que, comme on pouvait s’y attendre, les petits groupes aient plus travaillé à un niveau personnel et les grands groupes à un niveau culturel. La question de l’identité était patente dans les deux, mais dans le petit groupe observé par l’auteur ce furent l’histoire personnelle et le conflit avec des introjections parentales ayant une implication ambivalente qui dominèrent : dans les réunions plénières, ce furent surtout l’histoire culturelle, le langage et les questions d’identité.
Psychanalyse du psychodrame individuel

Published: March 2024

Le psychodrame individuel est une technique incomparable pour tous les patients qui ne peuvent bénéficier d’une analyse alors qu’ils en ont le plus grand besoin. Par son dispositif, il met en scène une topique psychique proche du schéma dit de la dialectique intersubjective de Lacan. Le jeu permet de redonner à la parole une dimension qu’elle avait perdue, ce qui rétablit le dialogue thérapeutique psychanalytique.

Approche corporelle et groupe dans la formation
Authors: Beauchesne Hervé , Comte B. , Grapin Jean-Jacques , Lavaux F.
Published: March 2024

A corporal approach to the training group.

The use of group dynamics and corporal expression in therapy currently runs the risk of creating a number of illusions, in particular with respect to psychanalysis during the period of sensitivation and development of human relations. The use of corporal techniques (in this particular case, dance) is proposed in training sessions having to do with group psychoanalysis. This leads to the possibility of analysing the narcissistic and archaic dimensions, provided that the framework is clearly defined. The modes and contingencies of this framework and its effects are considered in this paper along with the limitations, reasonable reservations and criticisms as well as the real potential of this type of session. Finally, the conditions necessary for remaining within a truly psychoanalytical perspective are examined.

Sobre la analidad en los grupos.

Mas alla del debate de la teorización de los procesos grupales — de inspiración freudiana o kleiniana — al abordar los procesos de identificación, aparecieron dos obstáculos : las angustias de separación y el papel del objeto real, ¿ Séria la clinica de la separación un prejuicio teórico que valorizando lo arcáico con detrimento de lo pulsional, conducina a abandonar el concepto de regresión ? Si el papel del objeto real parece privilegiar la elaboración de los procesos interpersonales, ¿ qué modificación intra-psíquica se espera ? Por último, el acentuar con insistencia la imago materna omnipotente, ¿ No séria una forma de alejar, para protegerse, la del padre de la horda primitiva ?
L’élaboration du temps généalogique dans l’espace de la cure de thérapie familiale psychanalytique
Authors: Granjon Evelyn
Published: March 2024

La elaboración del tiempo genealógico en el espacio de la cura de terapia familiar analítica.

La familia es el lugar y el aparato de transmisión de la vida psíquica. Esta función cuyos efectos y modalidades complejas conciernen al sujeto en su singularidad, en su pertenencia grupal y en su inscripción genealógica, se imposibilita a veces. Algunas de las manifestaciones psíquicas que se descubren entonces, tanto a nivel grupal como individual, vienen a representar lo que, al atravesar las generaciones, no ha podido inscribirse psíquicamente y que constituye ciertos aspectos de «lo negativo». La proposición de una terapia familiar psicoanalítica corresponde a una agrupación de la familia y de cada uno de sus miembros en una situación terapéutica psicoanalítica. El espacio psíquico del grupo de TFA se ofrece a ser el lugar donde se reciben y elaboran ciertas formaciones psíquicas solicitadas en ese espacio, en lo que toca a cada uno y a todos juntos en el grupo, y que brotan de los errores de la transmisión psíquica. Ahí puede construirse y diferenciarse, en el trabajo de contra-transferencia y en el tejido discursivo, el tiempo genealógico y el tiempo individual.
Porte-la-honte et maillage des contenants généalogiques familiaux et communautaires en thérapie familiale
Authors: Benghozi Pierre
Published: March 2024

The Carrier of Shame and the Mesh of Genealogical Family and Community Containers in Family Therapy.

Clinical impasses led us to hear shame better. The logic of shame is intersubjective and trans-psychic. I distinguish three registers : to be ashamed, as a conscious affect, contaminating the group of belonging ; to incarnate shame, as a designation and to carry shame as an expression of unconscious transmission. With the function of «carrying shame», the symptom carrier is the depository heir, memory of the imprint of the unmentionable. Shame is analysed as an organizer of the trans-generational transmission of the negative. The relation to shame delimits, with forms of the glance, the outside and inside, genealogical family group and community containers ; it organizes the identity relational link with ascendants, descendants, the unborn. In family therapy, we are essentially concerned with pathologies of the genealogical container. The work of genealogical meshing is an examination of the link and transmission. It participates in the deconstruction, narrative co-construction of the genealogical family picture.
Formation de psychothérapeutes de groupe : le groupe opérationnel
Authors: Ruiz Correa Olga B.
Published: March 2024

L’auteur présente une synthèse des concepts fondamentaux de la théorie des groupes opérationnels, et de leur application technique dans divers contextes de formation. Cette contribution décisive du psychanalyste argentin Enrique Pichon-Rivière constitue actuellement la base de la formation des psychanalystes et psychothérapeutes de groupe en Argentine et dans plusieurs pays latino-américains. La conception de Pichon-Rivière intègre certains aspects des théories de Freud, M. Klein, Bion, Fairbairn, ainsi que des références à la théorie lewinienne et à celle, relative au processus de communication, de l’école de Palo Alto. Pichon-Rivière considère l’apprentissage comme partie intégrante du processus du groupe, au cours duquel se module la distance optimale avec l’objet de la connaissance et les anxiétés provoquées par la rupture des stéréotypes et les fantasmes inconscients qui se réveillent lorsque sont affrontées de nouvelles situations ou de nouvelles connaissances.

Rencontrer le corps de malades en fin de vie
Authors: Driant Anouk
Published: March 2024

A partir d’un travail régulier en groupe, des bénévoles de plusieurs unités parisiennes de soins palliatifs sont amenés à s’interroger sur ce qu’ils ressentent au contact du corps de malades enfin de vie. Parfois saisis par l’horreur que produit le spectacle de la dégénérescence physique, parfois surpris par la violence de la vitalité sexuelle qui demeure par-delà les dégâts causés par la maladie, les bénévoles retiennent surtout de leur accompagnement la qualité des rapports de tendresse qui s’échangent avec les malades, et qui dépassent la portée des gestes thérapeutiques techniques.
Psychodynamique de l’identité face à l’exclusion
Authors: Soula Desroche Monique
Published: March 2024

Psychodynamics of Identity in the Face of Exclusion.

For questions that are both social and personal, concerning work and private life, certain persons find themselves confronted with situations of failure that overwhelm them ; they «give up » in front of a new ordeal, lose courage, disinvest, become depressed, somatize. These persons are touched by their representation of themselves. In order to respond to this, we set up group settings accessible to those who, for various reasons, do not have recourse to forms of psychological support or treatment at present. The setting consists of two aspects : support (Transition, Group and institutional analysis) and training in the ICS-ARIP program. The duality of approach gives a wide flexibility to the whole and corresponds to the way in which requests arrive.
Pensée de groupe, penser en groupe. A propos d’un groupe d’élaboration de la pratique groupale
Authors: Kaës René
Published: March 2024

Qu’est-ce que penser en groupe ? L'article examine quelques conditions nécessaires pour penser les questions que posent la pratique et la théorie du psychanalyste en situation de groupe : tout d’abord, penser la violence d’un dispositif de travail où l’exposé du cas clinique confronte à risquer une pensée qui pourrait se délier du pensé groupal. Si pour penser le groupe, il faut sortir du groupe, il est aussi nécessaire de trouver dans le groupe un étayage pour penser. Lorsque ces conditions sont réunies, le travail du groupe soutient la transformation du cas en théorie et la transformation de la théorie sous l'effet énigmatique du cas. Les expériences ici rapportées montrent qu'une certaine anticipation de la solution est requise pour penser l'énigme du cas, et que le recours à la théorie et la confiance dans les processus théorisants soutiennent le dépassement par la pensée d’une expérience catastrophique.

La thérapie psychanalytique du groupe et surtout celle de la famille nous apprennent à dépasser cette grossière assimilation confondant pensée et langage, à quoi nous obligeait la cure-type individuelle où le langage était réduit à sa dimension informative. Réintroduisant la place de l’image et surtout celle du geste en nous engageant à «écouter» les expressions non verbales des participants non-locuteurs, les thérapies analytiques de famille et de groupe rendent à la pensée sa fondamentale intention d’action.

Does the Schizophrenic Have a Place in Group Psychotherapy ?

The author presents an experience covering twenty years of group therapy and group psychodrama founded on psychoanalytic concepts for schizophrenics in institutions. These are daily therapeutic groups in a highly structured frame. The author uses the works of Bion, Winnicott and Searles to develop the notion of «group-personality», the very specific nature of the transference and therapeutic interventions emanating from the counter-transference as well as the use of transitional space to attempt to allow the schizophrenic subject access to symbolization and individuation.

Le non-verbal au regard de l’éthologie dans les groupes de psychothérapie psychanalytique
Authors: Garrigues Pierre
Published: March 2024

Dans cet article, le non-verbal est conçu dans le cadre de l'éthologie définie comme une biologie sémiotisée du comportement. En accord avec l'hypothèse évolutionniste d'une continuité de l'animal à l’homme, le modèle éthologique proposé est celui des interactions comportementales animales avec leur sémiotique. Le langage verbal en est exclu.

La nature, la fonction et la signification du non-verbal chez l'homme peuvent être connues grâce à l'attitude éthologique. Celle-ci conçoit l'organisme et son milieu comme un système vivant. Elle se traduit en pratique par une observation longue, répétée et patiente, de la totalité de l'organisme, une description minutieuse de la forme comportementale émergeant ainsi de l’ensemble des perceptions, une connaissance de la phylogenèse, de l'ontogenèse et de la place de cette forme dans l'histoire du sujet.

A la faveur de sa double pratique en éthologie humaine et de psychothérapie de groupe, l’auteur propose de mettre en correspondance le niveau sémiotique de ce modèle éthologique avec le niveau des échanges et du vécu corporels qui apparaissent, en psychothérapie psychanalytique de groupe, au seuil de la mentalisation et proches des processus primaires.

La beauté du jeu en thérapie groupale d’enfants
Authors: Eiguer Alberto
Published: March 2024

Le jeu en thérapie groupale d’enfants est un moyen de travail utile, mais il serait abusif de le considérer comme un but thérapeutique en soi et de le réifier. Il est un révélateur des contenus mais aussi de la nature du fonctionnement psychique . Il nous intéresse par ce qu ’il exprime et par ce qu ’il ne peut pas dévoiler : cet irreprésenté prend la voie de la mise en forme esthétique. Cette dimension a été dégagée par Ch. Bollas, M. Milner, D. Meltzer, W. Bion, S. Lebovici, R. Diatkine. La thérapie d’un enfant psychotique sert d’illustration des différentes hypothèses avancées. Dans la deuxième partie, l’auteur traite du jeu dans les thérapies de groupe et familiale, en présentant un autre exemple.
Des identifications en thérapie familiale psychanalytique

Published: March 2024

The impact of traumatic separations can be extremely variable in the family and it depends on how early and radical the tie breaking is. Premature babies or adopted infants identifications are heavily marked by early separations and their negative effects. Identifications reveal its primary nature in family psychoanalytical therapy trough transferance process. In this environment, the identification processes can be transformed through the acknowledgement that the perceived loss is irreparable and by expressing and sharing the suffering wich it caused.
Recognising Cyber Blockades as Crimes Against Humanity: Can International Criminal Law Keep Up?
Authors: Velenczei Dora Vanda
Published: March 2024

As a result of the heavily digitalised world on top of our increasing online presence and interconnectedness, states and civilian populations are becoming more and more vulnerable to cyber attacks. It is thus imperative to examine the dangers large scale cyber attacks pose with respect to their contribution to potential human suffering. As such, these large scale cyber attacks, especially a cyber blockade, may be able to constitute an international crime. The Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court announced at the Digital Front Lines conference that his office is willing to investigate cyber operations as potential war crimes given that they are capable of causing severe consequences akin to kinetic warfare. (Yoon Onn, 2023) This is the first significant step towards recognising the harmful effects of malicious cyber operations as international crimes. However, not only is the Rome Statute itself silent on cyber operations as potential international crimes, the ICC has not yet seen a case concerning malicious cyber activities as either a war crime or as a crime against humanity. As such, the central question the paper seeks to answer is whether the Rome Statute could potentially encompass cyber blockades as the crime against humanity of “other inhumane acts” under Article 7(1)(k) of the Rome Statute. The paper looks at crimes against humanity for three reasons: firstly, Karim Khan KC has already touched on cyber attacks potentially prosecuted as war crimes, as mentioned above, thus the knowledge gap is gradually being bridged with respect to war crimes. Secondly, there is an absence of any regulatory framework should a cyber blockade be unleashed in peacetime, where international humanitarian principles do not apply. Thirdly, establishing a cyber blockade as a crime against humanity would lead to greater individual criminal responsibility as opposed to a war crimes conviction. This, in turn, would send a strong deterrent message in both war and peace.
Infusing Morabaraba game design to develop a cybersecurity awareness game (CyberMoraba)
Authors: Wa Nkongolo Mike
Published: March 2024

Numerous studies have confirmed the effectiveness of Cybersecurity Awareness Games (CAGs) in enhancing the security posture of diverse organizations. As these organizations increasingly face the formidable challenge of cyberattacks, implementing serious CAGs to solve this issue has become a paramount concern. This article introduces an innovative approach to cybersecurity education by presenting a serious CAG. The game aims to effectively educate students about critical aspects of cybersecurity awareness engagingly and interactively. The study aimed to redefine cybersecurity awareness training by introducing an indigenous game design that intricately incorporates the traditional South African Morabaraba board game. While the effectiveness of non-indigenous games like "Capture The Flag (CTF)" in cybersecurity training is acknowledged, indigenous designs have been overlooked. This research creatively integrates Morabaraba's gameplay into cybersecurity training, adapting it into a competitive game where players adopt the roles of either defenders or attackers, with corresponding tokens/images symbolizing various cyber defense and attack strategies. Both the defenders and attackers in the game can elevate their awareness scores by strategically positioning defensive or attacking images on the game board. Subsequently, a judging entity assesses the players' moves and assigns scores based on the accuracy of the images placed. The game mirrors real-world scenarios, promoting strategic thinking and leveraging interactive gameplay for practical insights into cybersecurity awareness. Players demonstrate their cybersecurity knowledge through offensive and defensive strategies. A group of 40 students evaluated the game's effectiveness, highlighting its potential to create an engaging and competitive learning environment that imparts cybersecurity principles and practical application. The evaluation of the game mechanics demonstrated a remarkably positive outcome, with students expressing both enjoyment and an enhanced understanding of cybersecurity awareness.

Information warfare challenges, including the "CNN Effect," are increasing in quantity and complexity as the internet saturates modern life. Media communications, reliable or not, are constantly injected into American life, affecting opinions, decision-making, and actions—which may result in terrifying and permanent consequences when the media influences military members and government leaders.  This research focuses on the immersive learning environment—an engaging, simulation-based educational experience with realistic conflict scenarios where students apply lesson objectives through hands-on activities. Instructors conduct immersive learning in the US Air Force Academy's (USAFA) Multi-Domain Laboratory. Traditionally, students were taught military strategy in a classroom where they engaged in wargaming by rolling dice using a board game. Now, the Military & Strategic Studies (MSS) Department uses hands-on, real-time wargaming with unique hardware and software to teach future leaders how to apply classroom concepts using experiential learning. Wargames are critical for meeting the priorities of the Joint Chiefs of Staff—specifically, preparing leaders to conduct joint operations in all domains by integrating experiential learning. The guidance explains that "curricula should leverage live, virtual, constructive, and gaming methodologies with wargames… to develop deeper insight and ingenuity." The wargame with media provides external influences like news and information from various sources, which may influence students' decision-making process, resulting in "The CNN Effect."  "The CNN Effect" is a short-hand way to explain how news reports drive government leaders' responses, including military decision-making. This project builds upon existing research uniquely because this study examines decision-making from multiple leaders based on the same simulated media in USAFA's immersive learning environment. This research uses mixed methods analysis to explore how students act based on the wargame media inputs and compare course outcome differences after receiving enhanced Information Operations education or when exposed to different quantities of broadcasts. The Information Warfare (news literacy) module enhances education on the media's influence on decision-making and trust for students. Students learned to identify and research information sources, analyze biases, opinion versus fact-based reporting, and compare news reports from various outlets.
Teenagers: A Social Media Threat Vector
Authors: Collier Henry , Morton Charlotte
Published: March 2024

Social media has grown significantly since the early days.  During this time, social media has grown to be a mainstay in most teenagers’ lives.  Whether they are on Facebook, Snapchat, X (formerly Twitter), or TikTok, teenagers have fully integrated social media into their lives.  Teens tend to post the ins and outs of their lives, sharing sensitive information about themselves to people they know, but also to strangers.  Although social media can be used for good, it can also be used by nefarious threat actors to take advantage of teenagers.  Social engineers count on their subject's desire to increase the number of virtual connections, which may increase the endorphin response received when they get “likes”.  As such, social engineers create targeting accounts and then try to get as many people to accept them as possible.  This increased footprint levitates the chances of a successful social engineering attack.  Add to this, when someone shares an abundance of information about themselves, social engineers use this information to target individuals with spear phishing attacks.  To further exacerbate the situation, social media uses algorithms to target its users and feed them with a significant amount of information that is not always vetted as being truthful.  When someone is influenced by disinformation, it increases their susceptibility by taking away their desire to verify the truth, but rather accept that what they are being told is the truth.  This case study examines the dynamics associated with teenagers and their susceptibility to becoming a victim of cybercrime and how social media perpetuates this situation.
Theory-Guided Feature Selection in Cybercrime Data Science

Cybercrime data science is being significantly hampered by the presence of 'noisy' features within vast and complex datasets. We draw from the theoretical insights of the behavioural sciences to propose a feature selection model to enrich and improve the value and interpretability of cybercrime intelligence datasets. We piloted our theory-guided feature selection approach on a subset of intelligence datafeeds provided by a global fraud and cybercrime tracking firm. The results of the proposed social influence feature selection model show significant improvement in the interpretability of the machine learning-based exploratory analysis and advanced visualization techniques in an experimental setting. The feature selection model yielded rich insights about cybercriminal psychological tactics from social engineering scam data and has potential applicability in the areas of cyberthreat response and cybersecurity awareness training. Our study shows the value of an interdisciplinary theory-guided approach to cybercrime data analytics that integrates scientific knowledge from the behavioural sciences and data science expertise. Our paper concludes by suggesting avenues for future research on theory-guided feature selection seeking to incorporate behavioural science knowledge in cybercrime data science. We intend to refine, automate, evaluate, and scale our model in future research to assess its effectiveness in producing insights about cybercriminal activities and informing decision-making in a naturalistic and real-time setting. In future research efforts, we aim to automate the encoding of features and apply a wider range of machine learning tools and evaluation metrics to extract more meaningful insights into cybercriminal psychological tactics. We also intend to refine our model on larger datasets to enhance its efficiency and responsiveness to real-time cybercrime data.  We call on data scientists and cybercrime domain experts to work together to apply theory-guided feature selection to improve processes of knowledge discovery that enhance our cybersecurity capabilities.
Defining the "Cyber-Pearl Harbor" - Validation of the DSLP-framework in "Offensive Cyberspace Operations Targeting Ukraine: A Cyber Pearl-Harbor"

Published: March 2024

The use of cyberattacks against organizations, health care and individuals have increased along with the constant digitalisation. Nations have also fallen victim to cyberattacks, often combined with other means of war. A Cyber-Pearl Harbor (further shortened as CPH) is a term mentioned by the former United States Secretary of Defense, Mr. Leon Panetta, who described it as “combined attacks that result in human death and physical destruction and that paralyzes an entire nation”. Gazmend Huskaj used Panetta's definition in order to create a framework (herein the “DSLP-framework”) for classifying an event as a CPH. This study strives to see if the DSLP-framework can be validated since the term has been widely used for the last 25 years. However, a universal definition of the term seems to be missing, therefore it is not certain that the criteria presented in the framework is accurate. A qualitative case study was conducted through a literature review regarding the term CPH and semi structured interviews with three experts were done, which were later analysed through a thematic analysis. The framework was applied to three real life cases: a public health sector in Costa Rica, a TV-tower in Kyiv, Ukraine and the grocery company Coop in Sweden. The result from applying the DSLP-framework to each case was that only the case of TV-tower in Kiev, Ukraine, could be classified as a CPH. The following conclusions were drawn in this study: 1) The framework could not be validated due to lack of data, and 2) The interviewees views differed from the framework making it hard to find common ground.

In recent years, cyberspace has been shaped by a rapid and transformative technological evolution, which ushered in an era characterised by unparalleled connectivity and innovation. However, this remarkable progress has brought a concerning surge in cyberattacks that have fundamentally altered cyberspace dynamics and refined the nature of contemporary warfare. This refinement was vividly illustrated in the recent Russia-Ukraine conflict, where cyberspace played a pivotal role, blurring the traditional boundaries of conflict in the cyber age. As a result, this study used secondary data to examine how various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, and Telegram were used as a strategic advantage during the conflict. The findings disclosed that Russia employed offensive propaganda against Ukraine, while Ukraine adopted a defensive stance, effectively countering the narrative through an active online presence. Moreover, this study underscored the substantial role of social media in warfare and its continued significance in future conflicts. Furthermore, this study provided recommendations for nations to better prepare for such conflicts. The recommendations provide valuable insights to assist decision-makers and policymakers in enhancing cybersecurity awareness and practices within their respective countries.
Cryptocurrency-crime Investigation: Fraudulent use of Bitcoin in a Divorce Case
Authors: Botha Johannes George , Leenen Louise
Published: March 2024

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency adoption has increased significantly over the past few years. The significant growth in the industry has been matched by growth of crimes in this domain; not only in scams and dark-web illegal trading, but also in white-collar crimes with fraud and perjury occurring increasingly. With blockchain technology, the world of financial infidelity has become increasingly sophisticated. There is a common belief that blockchain and cryptocurrency provide means of hiding funds from the public or close associates who may not be familiar with the technology. The rise of cryptocurrency has also led to spouses hiding digital assets during divorce settlements. This study presents a use case of a couple in the midst of a divorce where one of the spouses was accused of perjury for failure to declare bitcoin holdings, obtained via Bitcoin mining, and possibly other forms of cryptocurrency and digital assets to the court. The plaintiff is entitled to fifty percent of all assets. While property, stocks, bonds, and bank accounts can easily be traced, cryptocurrency assets are more complex to trace but it is not impossible. This paper illustrates how such a case can be investigated by following the flow of funds on the blockchain, using tools such as Maltego and QLUE. The paper thus presents an investigative process that can be followed for a new category of forensic investigation.
