Rising Above Misinformation and Deepfakes
Authors: Veerasamy Namosha , Pieterse Heloise
Published: March 2022

Misinformation can be rapidly spread in cyberspace. It thrives in the social media landscape as well as news platforms. Misinformation can readily gain momentum in the race to influence people or intentionally deceive.  With the use of bots, misinformation can be easily shared, especially in environments like Twitter and Facebook. While, some measures are taken to stop the spread of misinformation, threats like Deepfakes are posing a higher challenge. Deepfakes provide a means to generate fake digital content in order to impersonate a person. With the use of audio, images and videos, artificial intelligence is used to depict the speech and actions of people. Deepfakes are typically made of presidents or influential businessmen such as Donald Trump and Mark Zuckerberg.  Deep Fakes can be very realistic and convincing as this form of synthetic media is raising concerns about its possible misuse.  The effects of Deepfakes are to spread disinformation, confuse users or create influence. This can lead to further effects like political factions, blackmail, harassment and extortion. Deepfakes could lead to a distrust in digital content as many may feel that anything we see is actually just a manipulation. Deepfakes has arisen as a new generation of misinformation through the manipulation of digital media in order to  create realistic videos. This paper looks at the governing, communal and technical issues relating to Deepfakes.  At the technical level, the use of audio and text analysis used to create Deepfake videos is advancing at a rapid pace which has also made its affordability and accessibility easier. An evaluation of the threats stemming from Deepfakes reveals that there are various mental, monetary and group dynamics involved. In this paper, the various types of threats emanating from Deepfakes is discussed. This paper also looks at five factors in the field of Deepfakes that should be taken into consideration (Technical Source Dissemination Victim Viewers).  The paper discussed these five factors in order to help identify measures to help curb the spread of Deepfakes. A combination of these measures can help limit the spread of Deepfakes and support mitigation of the threat.  Due to prominence and power that digital media has, it is imperative that this threat not be overlooked. The paper provides a holistic approach to understanding the risk and impact of Deepfakes, as well measures to help mitigate abuse thereof.
Multi-Purpose Cyber Environment for Maritime Sector

Published: March 2022

The cyber attack surface in a maritime environment is constantly growing. More current information and computer technologies are being used on cargo and passenger ships to save on operational costs and increase navigational safety. Along with the growing reliance on automation, the risk of a disruption to a vessel's critical systems by drawing on the wrong inputs from sensors to change the behaviour of the actuators has significantly increased. Traditional operational technological systems are much more complicated to update than the automatic software updates we see in information technology systems. To better understand existing cyber threats in the maritime sector and increase cybersecurity resilience, this paper aims to replicate the digital components of a ship's bridge to examine scenarios when the bridge system loses connectivity, receives the wrong inputs from sensors, or the internal system becomes compromised. The simulator differentiates fundamentally from traditional simulators or digital twins in the maritime sector that focus on training seafarers. This environment generates data streams that are similar to those on board a ship. Those data streams can be analysed, modified and spoofed to observe the effects. The effects can be technical but it is equally necessary to analyse how human beings would react in specific circumstances. Our work provides the opportunity to isolate the ship network traffic, conduct penetration testing, find cybersecurity vulnerabilities on devices, and execute cyber attacks without the dangers associated with running such scenarios on a vessel in the open sea.
Don’t Drink the Cyber: Extrapolating the Possibilities of Oldsmar’s Water Treatment Cyberattack
Authors: Cervini James , Rubin Aviel , Watkins Lanier
Published: March 2022

Water treatment represents an essential critical infrastructure sector which has a direct impact on the health and well-being of its customers. Water treatment is often performed by municipalities with very limited budgets for cybersecurity resources. These underfunded, high-impact, targets represent an emerging cyber warfare attack-surface paradigm which poses a direct threat to the quality of life for millions of people. On February 5th, 2021, a water treatment plant in Oldsmar, Florida was the victim of an attempted cyberattack. This attack commanded the system to add a dangerous amount ofsodium hydroxide to water which supplied thousands. Direct exposure to sodium hydroxide causes painful burns to the exposed area with permanent internal damage likely upon ingestion. A system operator noticed this malicious behaviour and corrected the situation, minimizing the attack’s impact. This paper outlines the attack and illustrates how minor modifications to the attacker’s tactics, techniques, and procedures could have resulted in a cyber-derived catastrophe for thousands of unsuspecting citizens. Lastly, this paper explores the effectiveness of various low-cost cyber-physical security technologies when pitted against differing attacker models in these theoretical scenarios. These cybersecurity solutions are evaluated by cost, ease of use, implementation difficulty, and ability to support safe operation continuity when faced with adversary behaviour. The results of this evaluation illuminate a path forward for low-cost threat mitigation which increases the difficulty to compromise these critical cyber-physical systems. With attacks targeting industrial control systems on the rise, the Oldsmar water treatment cyberattack represents more than an individual incident, it can be viewed as a reflection of the current status of thousands of similar critical infrastructure systems that have yet to be caught in crosshairs of a competent and willing adversary with financial incentives and cyber warfare mission requirements serving as impetus for adversary willingness and any resulting large-scale cyber cataclysm.

Published: March 2022

The current capabilities of many law enforcement agencies are tightly constrained despite the heightened level of awareness and concern for the role recent technology has in facilitating cybercrime and instances of online victimization. More specialized computer forensics and digital evidence training programs are necessary to meet the needs of local and state law enforcement agencies. Based on the context, this paper discusses an interdisciplinary approach to addressing this dilemma while providing in-depth computer forensics and cybercrime investigation training that is both informative andpragmatic to future law enforcement officers. Using pre- and post-test results, this study assesses students’ technical background levels, reflecting comprehensive course learning objectives and pre-training levels of applied digital forensic investigation knowledge. Results suggest that students’ technical abilities and knowledge of different investigative tools significantly improved after the program. In particular, the program not only strengthened students’ knowledge of digital forensic investigation, but also helped students achieve higher t-test scores. We expect our study results to provide recommendations for cyber programs in other higher education institutions. The findings will serve as a guide for enhancing the current capacities of other higher education institutions to better serve their students in areas of computer forensics and digital evidence. In the long term, these efforts will lead to more effective cybercrime investigation and successful prosecutions, ultimately reducing cybercrime victimization.
Exploring Ontologies for Mitigation Selection of Industrial Control System Vulnerabilities
Authors: Heverin Thomas , Cordano Michael , Zeyher Andy , Lashner Matthew , Suresh Sanjana
Published: March 2022

Mitigating vulnerabilities in industrial control systems (ICSs) represents a highly complex task. ICSs may contain an abundance of device types, all with unique software and hardware components. Upon discovering vulnerabilities on ICS devices, cyber defenders must determine which mitigations to implement, and which mitigations can apply across multiple vulnerabilities. Cyber defenders need techniques to optimize mitigation selection. This exploratory research paper shows how ontologies, also known as linked-data models, can potentially be used to model ICS devices, vulnerabilities, and mitigations, as well as to identify mitigations that can remediate or mitigate multiple vulnerabilities. Ontologies can be used to reduce the complexity of a cyber defender’s role by allowing for insights to be drawn, especially in the ICS domain. Data are modelled from the Common Platform Enumeration (CPE), the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), standardized list of controls from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and ICS Cyber Emergency Response Team (CERT) advisories. Semantic queries provide the techniques for mitigation prioritization. A case study is described for a selected programmable logic controller (PLC), its known vulnerabilities from the NVD, and recommended mitigations from ICS CERT. Overall, this research shows how ontologies can be used to link together existing data sources, to run queries over the linked data, and to allow for new insights to be drawn for mitigation selection.
Utilizing Switch Port Link State to Detect Rogue Switches
Authors: Quitiqut Travis , Bhuse Vijay
Published: March 2022

There are many methods to detect rogue wireless access points, but the same case can not be said for rouge switches on a LAN network. Detecting these rogue switches is key to security of any organization. The introduction of a rogue unmanaged network switch has the potential to cripple a network. These types of switches pose a big risk because they are usually plug and play types of devices and can prove difficult to track. A switch becomes rouge when it is connected to a network without proper authorization. Rogue switches are a huge threat to the security and reliability of any network. An attacker could use a rogue switch to launch an attack or spy on network traffic information. Many organizations these days implement a “bring your own device” policy that can prove to be a daunting task to monitor for any network administrator. It is important that these rogue network switches are not introduced to a network, whether by accident or in a malicious attempt. The vulnerability that is introduced could comprise the confidentiality of network messages, degrade network performance, or even allow hackers or authorized users access to critical network infrastructure and data. In this paper we present a method that can help detect these rogue switches by monitoring the ethernet frames across the network and looking at the link state of the network switch ports. We will be using Wireshark, a Windows Computer, and a local switch setup to test methods for detecting a rogue switch. In our scenario we were able to provide some evidence of amethod that could be used in conjuncture with other rules and policies to detect rogue switches connected to a network. We were able to determine based on the port link state that there was another device, most likely a rogue switch between the good switch and the computer.

Published: March 2022

Memory Forensics is one of the most important emerging areas in computer forensics. In memory forensics, analysis of userland memory is a technique that analyses per-process runtime data structures and extracts significant evidence for application-specific investigations. In this research, our focus is to examine the critical challenges faced by process memory acquisition that can impact object and data recovery. Particularly, this research work seeks to address the issues of consistency and reliability in userland memory forensics on Android. In real-world investigations, memory acquisition tools record the information when the device is running. In such scenarios, each application’s memory content may be in flux due to updates that are in progress, garbage collection activities, changes in process states, etc.  In this paper we focus on various runtime activities such as garbage collection and process states and the impact they have on object recovery in userland memory forensics. The outcome of the research objective is to assess the reliability of Android userland memory forensic tools by providing new research directions for efficiently developing a metric study to measure the reliability. We evaluated our research objective by analysing memory dumps acquired from 30 apps in different Process Acquisition Modes.  The Process Acquisition Mode (PAM) is the memory dump of a process that is extracted while external runtime factors are triggered. Our research identified an inconsistency in the number of objects recovered from analysing the process memory dumps with runtime factors included. Particularly, the evaluation results revealed differences in the count of objects recovered in different acquisition modes. We utilized Euclidean distance and covariance as the metrics for our study. These two metrics enabled the authors to identify how the change in the number of recovered objects in PAM impact forensic analysis. Our conclusion revealed that runtime factors could on average result in about 20% data loss, thus revealing these factors can have an obvious impact on object recovery.
Malware Binary Image Classification Using Convolutional Neural Networks
Authors: Kiger John , Ho Shen-Shyang , Heydari Vahid
Published: March 2022

The persistent shortage of cybersecurity professionals combined with enterprise networks tasked with processing more data than ever before has led many cybersecurity experts to consider automating some of the most common and time-consuming security tasks using machine learning. One of these cybersecurity tasks where machine learning may prove advantageous is malware analysis and classification. To evade traditional detection techniques, malware developers are creating more complex malware. This is achieved through more advanced methods of code obfuscation and conducting more sophisticated attacks. This can make the manual process of analyzing malware an infinitely more complex task. Furthermore, the proliferation of malicious files and new malware signatures increases year by year. As of March 2020, the total number of new malware detections worldwide amounted to 677.66 million programs. In 2020, there was a 35.4% increase in new malware variants over the previous year. This paper examines the viability of classifying malware binaries represented as fixed-size grayscale using convolutional neural networks. Several Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures are evaluated on multiple performance metrics to analyze their effectiveness at solving this classification problem.
Improving Hardware Security on Talos II Architecture Through Boot Image Encryption
Authors: Muramoto Calvin , Dunlap Stephen , Graham Scott
Published: March 2022

The OpenPOWER Foundation is an organization that promotes open-source high-performance hardware like the POWER9. OpenBMC is an OpenPower project that strives to produce an open-source firmware stack for Baseboard Management Controllers (BMCs). If hardware falls into the hands of competitors or bad actors, reverse engineering methods can be used to leak or manipulate sensitive information from the boot sequence. This represents a security concern because the root of trust can be invalidated. For example, since the Initial Program Load (IPL) data is frequently not encrypted and is sent over the Low Pin Count (LPC) bus, it is possible to intercept and conduct man-in-the-middle attacks to modify the boot process. The boot image flash chip could also be removed from the Talos II motherboard and examined by competing server architecture manufacturers to reveal detailed boot information. Firmware that developers deem to contain sensitive code or perform innovative operations needs to be protected before being flashed onto the boot image chip. This paper demonstrates a method to encrypt sections of the boot image by encrypting a section of the image before flashing it onto the Talos II. The encrypted image will be decrypted during the boot sequence in the Level 3 cache of the POWER9, proving that it is possible to prevent adversaries from interfering with the IPL flow or obtaining details on firmware from the flash chip. This paper presents a novel method to improve the security of the boot image on Talos II architecture by encrypting the boot firmware image and decrypting it during the boot process. The proof of concept was executed on a Raptor Engineering Talos II system running a POWER9 processor with OpenBMC firmware on the ASPEED AST2500 BMC. This research claims that this unique method increases boot time security through firmware without altering hardware.
Mitigating Global Cyber Risk Through Bridging the National Incident Response Capacity Gap
Authors: Dubois Elisabeth , Tatar Unal
Published: March 2022

Cyber-attacks know no borders. Given the globally connected environment, no region or country is secure against cyber-attacks unless the entire world is secure or has cyber capabilities. Yet, whether preventive or reactive, cyber countermeasures require coordination and engagement of various organizations, government bodies, and citizens of different countries. Although a variety of countermeasures exist, Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs) have been deemed necessary systems in defending against and preventing cyberattacks, further supporting a nation’s cyber capacity and limiting the harm to citizens, businesses, and governments. Despite calls for establishing CSIRTs at the national level, especially toward protecting critical infrastructure and lives from cyber threats, various discrepancies exist based on a nation’s resources, capabilities, and needs. Limited research delves into the cyber capabilities of low-income countries despite an emphasis on improving global cyber capacity, leading to a need to establish a framework for low-income countries to address the unique needs with lessons learned from existing standards. CSIRTs can improve the cybersecurity posture of countries, so we seek to investigate how low-income countries can better mitigate cyber threats through cyber capacity building, including the creation of CSIRTs. This work-in-progress paper aims to investigate cyber incident response capacity building at the national level in low-income countries and identify challenges they may face in contributing to a more secure global cyberspace. Stemming from this paper, we will conduct a survey of national CSIRTs in low-income countries and conduct semi-structured interviews to further investigate their role. The implications of our research are far-spreading, assisting academics, practitioners, and governments in developing research, processes, and policies to aid low-income countries in their national cyber capacity building.
Cyberwarfare and its Effects on Critical Infrastructure
Authors: Bhaiyat Humairaa , Sithungu Siphesihle
Published: March 2022

The growth and capabilities of cyberspace have brought about many advantages to societies. Individuals and businesses have used cyberspace for easier communication, but nation-states also utilise it to improve the functioning of their critical infrastructure. Critical infrastructures provide vital services such as the health, safety and security needed for the efficient functioning of societies. However, vulnerabilities in cyberspace have made cyberattacks such as cyberwarfare possible. Cyberwarfare is an international concern due to the negative impact it can have on critical infrastructure. This paper aims to discuss cyberwarfare and the potential effects that it can have on critical infrastructure. This paper follows a theoretical research methodology to provide an understanding of cyberwarfare. In addition, the paper provides a better understanding of the impact that cyberwarfare can have on critical infrastructure. The paper contains an exhaustive definition of cyberwarfare. Since cyberwarfare is a type of cyberattack, it is similar but not the same as other cyberattacks such as cybercrime and cyberterrorism. Therefore, to gain a clear understanding of cyberwarfare, the paper discusses cyberwarfare, cybercrime, and cyberterrorism. The paper also discusses some of the most significant cyberwarfare incidents. Since the effects can be devastating, critical infrastructure must be protected from cyberwarfare. A survey of techniques for protecting critical infrastructure from cyberwarfare is presented. The identified incidents highlight the effects that cyberwarfare can cause. Hence, the possible effects that cyberwarfare can cause on critical infrastructure is discussed. Due to the negative effects of cyberwarfare, nations need to be prepared to protect their critical infrastructure from cyberwarfare. Therefore, the paper also discusses the authors’ stance on South Africa preparedness to defend themselves in the event of cyberwarfare.
La migración de retorno en los adultos mayores de la mixteca oaxaqueña y sus procesos de adaptación psicológica y cultural

Published: March 2022

The migration from Mexico to the United States of people who come from indigenous original communities as well as their return to the place of origin has been scarcely studied, especially from the perspective of the experiences shared by older adults. That is why, this article aims to describe the experience of migration to the United States and return to Mexico, as well as the psychological and cultural adaptation processes of older adults who are originally from the Oaxacan Mixteca. The study was qualitative with a descriptive level. Seven older adults, six men and one woman, with an age range between 71 and 75 years old, who are returned migrants from the municipality of San Miguel Tlacotepec, Oaxaca, in Mexico, were intentionally invited to participate. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the support of an interview guide with 52 questions. Participants migrated at different stages of the life cycle. The migratory experience was more satisfactory for the women than for the participating men. They migrated speaking Mixtec and not knowing how to speak Spanish and English. They returned with a greater ability of speaking Spanish and without speaking English. They reported experiences of discrimination in the United States by other Mexican, given their difficulties in communicating in Spanish. On their return, they returned to work in the fields and only one of them to work making handicrafts. They did not participate in hometown organizations or migrant clubs. And they do not know about Programa Bracero. The emotions of sadness and anger were the most frequent while they lived in USA. The financial sacrifices to send as much money as possible to the family were frequently reported. It is necessary to continue giving spaces for analysis and conversation to social groups whose participation in the migration process has not been visible, about which it is necessary to deepen knowledge, such as older adults, who come from indigenous and rural contexts. The gender implications of migration are particularly relevant to broaden future analysis
Factores que intervienen en el desarrollo de habilidades socioemocionales en la infancia, un estudio de caso

Published: March 2022

The solidity of social-emotional skills has become a useful tool related to success in the lives of individuals. Some statements claim that a high level of IQ does not ensure assertiveness when acting or making good decisions, but that there must be a balance between it and socio-emotional intelligence. What concerns social-emotional education cannot be simplified as a look inside, but represents a greater complexity, although it leads the subject to self-centeredness; individual concreteness, to discover their inner strength, promote personal growth and the construction of their own identity, its purpose is not individualism, but it is a collective consciousness, where competences such as self-knowledge, self-regulation, autonomy, empathy and collaboration come into play.
The present research was carried out in the pandemic situation caused by the COVID-19 virus, it pursues the objectives of a more clearly understanding of socio-emotional-skills development process, in addition to identify the factors that prevent their acquisition, as well as explaining the benefits that individuals can achieve by promoting these abilities. This is channeled by an interpretative paradigm to analyze the phenomena in which the participating subjects are involved; how certain factors interfere with the development of social-emotional skills. This is linked to a qualitative approach, thus focusing on the experiences of the sample in question. The process takes the methodology of the case study due to the small number of students who manifest socio-emotional limitations. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observation guides, file research and anecdotal recording. These techniques and instruments made it possible to systematize the information obtained and then schematize them.
It was found that there are different factors that influence the development of the emotional intelligence, such as parents, parenting style, teaching intervention, psychological, psychiatric or neurological issues, as well as the disposition and motivation of students. It is concluded that socio-emotional skills are not innate, but it is necessary to activate them, they are influenced, limited or propitiated, by the particular life experience, in the same way they are not acquired at the same pace. Another relevant point is the teaching preparation necessary to achieve a socio-emotional solidity, in order to lead students to emerge the best version of themselves.

Published: March 2022

Beekeeping has been present in the Yoreme-Mayo communities for a long time, however, the role that this activity and its products play in these native groups of the region is little known, so the aim of this research is to identify the uses and biocultural value of honey in Yoreme-Mayo communities in northern Sinaloa. Methods and techniques: It is a descriptive, qualitative and cross-sectional study, whereby the survey application technique was applied using a questionnaire intended to 43 postgraduate students from the Autonomous Indigenous University of Mexico belonging to this indigenous group. The sampling was carried out with the snowball technique. With the data collected, an Excel database was generated, systematized into four sections: a) honey consumption, b) beekeeping and its economic importance in the Yoreme-Mayo community, c) uses of honey and d) biocultural value of honey. Results: most of the consumption in their diet due to its medicinal properties (47.72%), and it is generally consumed once a month (30.23%). The most important characteristics for the consumer were the season of the year in which the honey was produced and the colour (both with 20.93%), where amber was preferred (31.81%). 52.27% of the participants think that its natural origin is also important. Although for some consumers the place of origin of the honey is not very important as long as it is from local hives or combs (27.77%), a certain tendency for those whose origin is the scrubland (16.66%) was mentioned. Traditional beekeeping represents an economic livelihood for Yoreme-Mayo families, since the majority stated that many of them depend on the production of honey for their monthly expenditure (42.50%). The most common use of honey in the communities is for consumption due to its medicinal properties (51.56%). When we asked about the cultural and/ or spiritual value that honey can have for the Yoremes, they highlighted its use for traditional medicinal preparations (34.21%). Conclusions: the cultural and spiritual value of honey in its community is based on its relationship with the huyya annia, in the pascola dance and in the preservation of identity through traditional practices such as beekeeping.

This analytical technique used a value scale: 3.26-4.00 (excellent category, 2.51-3.25 (good/high category), 1.76-2.50 (pretty good category/high enough), 1.00-1.75 (less good/low category), From the results of data processing, it was concluded that: Parental interpersonal communication with children falls into the category of good or high with an average score of 3.07. Juvenile delinquency in students falls into the low category, with an average score of 1.03. From the results of the calculation obtained the correlation coefficient r = 0.32 (moderate positive correlation).   through testing using the t Distribution, obtained; th = 1,76, tt(1-1/2)  =1,701, with the provision of acceptance Ho if = –t(1-1/2 ).It turns out that through calculation th  is not amongt(1-1/2)  dan t(1-1/2). (-1,701 and 1,701), Then the hypothesis upheld in this study is acceptable. To find the magnitude of influence, the formula of the coefficient of determination isused. From the results of the calculation obtained a coefficient of determination of 0.106 which means the magnitude of the influence of 1.12%. From the results of the above hypothesis testing it can be concluded that the factor of parental communication with children is one of the factors that affect the level of juvenile delinquency, with an influence rate of about 1.12%.

This study deals with validity of cloze test in measuring reading comprehension.  The objectives are to find out cloze test of fixed or variable deletion a valid measure of reading comprehension, and to find out to which level of reading comprehension is cloze test most valid.  This was an export facto quantitative study. In this study, the writer took 40 students at SMP Swasta Bharlind School Medan, as the sample and they were divided into two grows. There are six hypotheses in this study in order to answer the research problems. Cloze test and TOEFL test were used as the instrument for collecting the data.  The findings were that cloze test using fixed-ratio method significantly correlate with reading comprehension of TOEFL and also with literal and inferential comprehension items of TOEFL in measuring reading comprehension. And the cloze test using variable-ratio method significantly correlate with reading comprehension of TOEFL but doesn’t significantly correlate with both literal and inferential comprehension items of TOEFL in measuring reading comprehension.  Then, cloze test using fixed-ratio method is a valid measure of reading comprehension (0,77), while cloze test using variable-ratio method is not a valid measure reading comprehension (0,69). Mean while cloze test using variable-ratio method does not significantly correlate with inferential comprehension items of TOEFL in measuring reading comprehension.

Controlling the amount of inventory value is not an easy thing for Computers in the current era of globalization are a major need in supporting human work. One of the branches of computer science that is widely used by humans to help work is the formation of an expert system which is one of the sub-fields of artificial intelligence [1]. One of the uses of expert systems is in the field of dentistry. It is proven by the emergence of Nyoman Kusuma Wardna's research entitled designing an expert system for diagnosing oral and dental diseases using the CLIPS programming language which was published at the National Seminar on Information Technology Applications held at Gajah Mada University, Yogyakarta 21 June 2008 . This application appears with an interface in the form of closed questions about the symptoms felt by the user so that it does not maximize the diagnostic results obtained. This expert system is also a development of Bambang Suyono's research (National Seminar on Informatics UPN Yogyakarta 22 May 2010) which has a deficiency in using the depth first search method so that it is unable to display two or more solutions [3], whereas in diagnosing a disease sometimes a doctor determines differential diagnosis. This is what prompted the author to develop the application system by correcting all existing deficiencies. The method used in this research is Extreme Programming (XP) which is part of the AGILE method [7], consisting of five stages, namely, Planning, Design, Coding, Test and release.

Cooperatives are institutions that run on the principle of kinship. Cooperative activities prioritize the welfare of their members and aim to increase the economic growth of the community. In the context of quality control and improvement, it is necessary to assess the health of cooperatives from both external and internal parties of the cooperative itself. So far, the health assessment of cooperatives and savings and loan units is still done manually. This affects decision making when viewed from the speed factor, calculations and the availability of supporting data. The results of this health assessment are the starting point for the community to give trust. With the health predicate rating system for savings and loan cooperatives and web-based savings and loan units, the officers and owners of cooperatives can provide a quick health assessment. The cooperative aspect is based on PerMen NO. 14/PER/M.KUKM/XII/2009 namely Capital, Assets, Management, Earning. Liquidity, Independence and growth and identity. This system generates cooperative health scores and predicates, dashboard information as a visualization of the assessment results, prints certificates and prints assessments
