Epigenetic Factor MicroRNAs Likely Mediate Vaccine Protection Efficacy against Lymphomas in Response to Tumor Virus Infection in Chickens through Target Gene Involved Signaling Pathways
Authors: Zhang Lei , Xie Qingmei , Chang Shuang , Ai Yongxing , Dong Kunzhe , Zhang Huanmin
Published: March 2024

Epigenetic factors, including microRNAs (miRNAs), play an important role in affecting gene expression and, therefore, are involved in various biological processes including immunity protection against tumors. Marek’s disease (MD) is a highly contagious disease of chickens caused by the MD virus (MDV). MD has been primarily controlled by vaccinations. MD vaccine efficacy might, in part, be dependent on modulations of a complex set of factors including host epigenetic factors. This study was designed to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in the primary lymphoid organ, bursae of Fabricius, in response to MD vaccination followed by MDV challenge in two genetically divergent inbred lines of White Leghorns. Small RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analyses of the small RNA sequence reads identified hundreds of miRNAs among all the treatment groups. A small portion of the identified miRNAs was differentially expressed within each of the four treatment groups, which were HVT or CVI988/Rispens vaccinated line 63-resistant birds and line 72-susceptible birds. A direct comparison between the resistant line 63 and susceptible line 72 groups vaccinated with HVT followed by MDV challenge identified five differentially expressed miRNAs. Gene Ontology analysis of the target genes of those five miRNAs revealed that those target genes, in addition to various GO terms, are involved in multiple signaling pathways including MAPK, TGF-β, ErbB, and EGFR1 signaling pathways. The general functions of those pathways reportedly play important roles in oncogenesis, anti-cancer immunity, cancer cell migration, and metastatic progression. Therefore, it is highly likely that those miRNAs may, in part, influence vaccine protection through the pathways.

Mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV) infections are ubiquitous in multiple mammalian species including humans, and mainly causes gastroenteritis and respiratory disease. In this study, we developed a rapid and sensitive TaqMan qRT-PCR method for MRV detection based on the primers and probe designed within the conserved L1 gene. The qRT-PCR assay was evaluated for its sensitivity, specificity, efficiency and reproducibility. It was found that the detection sensitivity was equivalent to 10 DNA copies/μL, and the standard curves had a linear correlation of R2 = 0.998 with an amplification efficiency of 99.6%. The inter- and intra-assay coefficients of variation (CV%) were in the range of 0.29% to 2.16% and 1.60% to 3.60%, respectively. The primer sets specifically amplified their respective MRV segments and had the highest detection sensitivities of 100.25 TCID50/mL with amplification efficiencies of 99.5% (R2 = 0.999). qRT-PCR was used for MRV detection from samples of sheep, goats, and calves from four regions in China, and the overall MRV prevalence was 8.2% (35/429), whereas 17/429 (4.0%) were detected by RT-PCR and 14/429 (3.3%) by virus isolation. The qRT-PCR assay showed significantly higher sensitivity than RT-PCR and virus isolation. Results from an epidemiological survey indicated that the positive rate of MRV in rectal swabs from sheep and goats tested in Shaanxi, Jiangsu, and Xinjiang were 9/80 (11.3%), 12/93 (12.9%) and 14/128 (10.9%), respectively. In goats and sheep, MRV prevalence was obviously associated with season and age, with a high positive rate of more than 8% during September to April and approximately 13% in small ruminant animals under two months of age. This is the first instance of MRV infection in sheep and goats in China, thus broadening our knowledge of MRV hosts. Consequently, primer optimization for qRT-PCR should not only prioritize amplification efficiency and specificity, but also sensitivity. This assay will contribute to more accurate and rapid MRV monitoring by epidemiological investigation, viral load, and vaccination efficacy.
Prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. in Sheep and Goats in Jiangsu, China
Authors: Cheng Cheng , Fan Zhengrong , Cheng Darong , Tao Jianping
Published: March 2024

Sheep and goats serve as crucial hosts for Cryptosporidium spp. and are primarily responsible for its transmission via the fecal–oral route. This can result in symptoms such as lamb weight loss, diarrhea, and even fatalities, leading to significant economic losses. Currently, there is a lack of scholarly research investigating the prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. infection in sheep and goats specifically within Jiangsu province. This study collected fecal samples from sheep and goats, extracted their DNA, amplified target bands using nested PCR, sequenced the DNA, constructed a phylogenetic tree, and identified the genetic genotype. In total, 3 positive samples were identified out of 398 samples. Furthermore, the gene sequences of these samples exhibited significant homology with C. xiaoi in GenBank. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that the Cryptosporidium spp. parasites under investigation are phylogenetically related to C. xiaoi. Conducting epidemiological investigations and accurately identifying the species of Cryptosporidium spp. is of utmost importance not only for the mutton sheep farming industry in Jiangsu but also for the proactive safeguarding of human health.

Addressing complex interactions within water, energy, and food (WEF) resources, innovative tools for in-depth analysis and decision-making are imperative. This study introduces chorematic focus maps (CFMs) as a groundbreaking method to visualize and tackle the WEF nexus’s complexities, focusing specifically on the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve (DDBR). By merging geospatial analysis with on-site validation, this research reveals intricate interdependencies within the nexus and positions CFMs as an effective tool for stakeholders. This study adopts a methodological approach that focuses on identifying human activities and evaluating their impacts on the WEF nexus, with the goal of developing practical and grounded strategies for managing these essential resources. By testing this approach within the DDBR, the potential for wider application is demonstrated, offering a promising framework for addressing similar socio-environmental challenges across various regions. Future research directions include refining CFMs’ precision and practicality through extended fieldwork and stakeholder engagement, testing the framework’s adaptability across various locations and nexus dynamics. Additionally, incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as machine learning could provide deeper insights and reinforce CFMs’ role in decision support for the WEF nexus. Conclusively, this investigation into the WEF nexus through CFMs emphasizes the critical need for strategies that navigate the complexities of environmental management and resource optimization, marking CFMs as a significant tool for both decision-makers and researchers.

The development of the times is something that is common and will continue to occur along with increasing knowledge and the desire to be more advanced and facilitate human activities. In the current era of digitalization, some Muslims can understand the probability of changing industry 4.0 by using digital technology as a means of collecting sustenance. . Islamic economics is present as a means of meeting the economic needs of Muslims, in which this economic system has been taught by the Prophet and his companions in the process of life. Islamic economics can also be expressed in terms of Islamic economics. Both have the same meaning that both are based on Islamic teachings. In the research on the Challenges of the Islamic Economic System in the Industrial Age 4.0 in Supporting Economic Growth in Indonesia, the design of this study only focuses on important points that can be extracted from existing sources, so that the research is based on Descriptive Analysis techniques, namely a type of research data that assists in describing, demonstrating, or assisting in summarizing data points so that patterns can develop that satisfy all data conditions. The author discusses this theme because we feel the need to understand the Syari'ah economic system as a Muslim economic vessel.
Groupes - Un seul ou deux psychothérapeutes ?
Authors: Chapelier Jean-Bernard , Avron Ophélia , Privat Pierre
Published: March 2024

Après quelques réflexions critiques sur la littérature traitant de la co-thérapie, les auteurs tentent de rendre compte des raisons qui leur font préférer mener seul les psychothérapies de groupe à long terme (avec ou sans psychodrame).

A partir d’exemples cliniques, ils montrent dans un premier temps que le fait d’être seul autorise une mobilité et une disponibilité plus grande, ce qui permet d’ajuster la distance entre le groupe de manière plus adaptée. En second lieu il leur semble que le couple de thérapeutes introduit des paramètres d’une telle complexité que les phénomènes de transfert, contre-transfert et inter-transfert deviennent très difficiles à analyser. De ce fait ils jugent préférable que le thérapeute assume seul les angoisses du groupe en se gardant toutefois la possibilité d’en référer à un tiers (hors du groupe). Enfin, ils indiquent les raisons culturelles et institutionnelles qui peuvent déterminer le choix entre co ou monothérapie.

Los ninos pueden satisfacer sus necesidades motrices, vivir experiencias corporates primitivas con las educadores pues el proyecto es permitirles recuperar la confianza y el placer en la relacion con los adultos abandonando progresivamente los mecanismos de defensa regresivos.

Un ejemplo clinico ilustra el trabajo del terapeuta en particular en el mecanismo de defensa en el clivaje.

Terreno de cuidados privilegiados para los ninos, el grupo terapeutico es tambien un lugar de ayuda y de formacion de las educadoras que contienen cotidianamente las angustias de estos ninos.
La diffraction des groupes internes
Authors: Kaës René
Published: March 2024

The diffraction of internal groups.

The different processes by which the representation of internal groups within dreams are demonstrated in this article through a series of dream analyses : condensation and formation of conglemerate persons, multiplication of likenesses, diffraction of a dream idea or of the dreamer into several elements of the dream content linked together through primary logical connexions. An analysis is proposed of this process (including its effects on object representation) and of the grouped self - with regard to the distribution of instinctual energy - in their role as instruments of the hallucinatory manifestation of wishes. The same process is put into effect in numerous works of art and within the space characteristic of group bonds. The concept of an internal group is articulated, inside the psychodramatic clinic, with the organisation of the group bond : in that context it is proposed to consider how certain economic forms of the intra-psychic dramatisation are selectively mobilised and worked on within intersubjective psychodramatic space. Some suggestions are put forward concerning transference and attentiveness to the group associative chain.

Transfert entre multiplicité et groupalité
Authors: Resnik Salomon
Published: March 2024

Bien que la notion de transfert chez Freud puisse être appliquée au groupe, Bion a montré que la formulation de la pensée psychanalytique change en même temps que le champ de recherche, et que, donc, une réflexion à ce sujet mérite d’être reconsidérée. L’article décrit la genèse d’un groupe à ses débuts, dans lequel un des membres, Victor, traduit ses fantasmes et anxiétés psychotiques. Cela met en évidence certains mécanismes et phénomènes archaïques dans le groupe. Le développement de l’insight à l’intérieur du groupe est comparable au processus psychanalytique individuel en tant que prise de conscience d’un réseau complexe avec ses liens entre le dedans et le dehors. Dans l’expérience groupale, «l’opinion publique» est présente, et une dynamique complexe et tridimensionnelle entre groupalité interne et externe se déclenche. Bion avait raison quand il suggérait que la nature même du groupe provoque des réactions et des phénomènes régressifs assez archaïques tels que les ont décrits M. Klein et son école. Après un certain nombre d’années de recherche et d’expérience en thérapie groupale, j’ai essayé de formuler et de poser dans ce travail certaines questions.
Le transfert pervers et la famille
Authors: Eiguer Alberto
Published: March 2024

La transferencia perversa y la familia.

A partir de una definicion de la transference en terapia familiar, analizamos su manifestacion en el caso de las familias con disfuncionamiento perverso, principalemente en aquellas donde se encuentra un paciente toxicómano. La transference se caracteriza aqui por 6 rasgos = contrato o pacto perverso, voluptad, pervertizacion de los objetivos originales de la cura, proselitismo, burla, y ataque del pensamiento. Aportamos la experience del analisis individual donde esta transference ha sido caracterizada. En todos los casos, este tipo de relacion sirve aleatoriamente el desea de immovilismo y una economia dominada por las carences de apuntalamiento y vivencia de vacio. Las repercusiones contra-transferenciales son igualmente estudiadas.
Alliances inconscientes et pacte dénégatif dans les institutions
Authors: Kaës René
Published: March 2024

Uncounscious alliances and pacts of denial within institutions.

Unconscious alliances are those psychical formations related to the bond created -as an effect of each subjects' unconscious within an inter-subjective whole-among the subjects themselves and within the relation¬ ship of each to the whole that they make up. These alliances describe the co-repressive function exercised by the collective entity (couple , group, institution) in its relation to repression within the individual subject. They open the door to the analysis of the role of the unconscious of an Other which is more than singular inside the psychic space of the subject. Three types of unconscious alliance are proposed and examined through the analysis of a couple and an institution : the community of the renuncia¬ tion of instinct (S. Freud), the narcissistic contract (P. Aulagnier), the pact of denial (R. Kaës).
Institution, pouvoir et créativité
Authors: Enriquez Eugène
Published: March 2024

Institution, power and creativity.

Contemporary authors tend to evoke the death-bearing aspects of institutions. Without avoiding the question of the death instinct, the author asks himself the question of the conditions required for an institution to allow for the autonomy of individuals and to become a source of life and creativity. He insists on the necessity of a passage by way of the murder of the founding father (or fathers) and of the indispensible reconciliation with the father that must follow (passage from the idealised father to the symbolic father), on the vocations of "exotes" within the transformation of institutions, on the importance of the elucidation of functions and powers and on the central role of the sublimation process.

Relajación con inducciones variables y grupo terapeutico.

Partiendo del enfoque clínico de dos grupos terapéuticos, se intentará precisar la especificidad del encuentro entre el método de relajación con inducciones variables (M. Sapir y colaboradores) y el trajabo en el grupo. El énfasis puesto en la dimensión corporal, por lo tanto individual, permite en el grupo el abordaje analítico de ciertas zonas muy arcaicas en los pacientes que no soportarian un análisis en ese momento de su evolución, ni podrían aprovechar un cara a cara.

Desaparición y reaparición en los grupos de niños y adolescentes

El material que presentamos es la síntesis de la supervisión de tres grupos de niños de desaparecidos : uno, de niños de corta edad, un segundo de niños prepuberes en período de latencia y un último de adolescentes. El grupo terapéutico como soporte permite el surgimiento de la organisación psiquica, estructural, individual y colectiva del estado confusional debido a la pérdida del objecto y al abandono vivído por la desaparición de los padres. Los grupos se organizan sobre un modo de sociabilidad sincrética, sin lograr constituirse como un «Yo-Piel». Un contrato de soporte que pueda servir de espacio intermediario, transicional, de apoyo, es diflcil a establecer.

Through the analysis of a psycho dramatic psychoanalytic session with anorexic patient, the author examines the hypothesis according to which domination is partly responsable for instigating relationships. Transformability of object and experience of satisfaction are two fundamental factors where one begins the domination of life as opposed to the cold and sterile self-domination of the anorexic.
Erotisation et psychose dans la famille
Authors: Resnik Salomon
Published: March 2024

Eroticization and Psychosis in the Family

The author develops certain ideas on how to work with a psychotic patient and his family in a context both institutional and private. Investigation of the family seen as a group is thereby confronted with the «institutional family». Through a clinical case study, the author elaborates certain notions about the eroticization of transference and eroticization in the family as an unconscious defense of the capacity to elaborate a very old, forgotten mourning. In psychotic regression, one of the ways of avoiding suffering or the awakening of old wounds is emotional blockage or eroticization lacking in affect. This is what H. Rosenfeld says about the eroticization of transference as a barrier that tends to homogenize feelings and intolerable thoughts through negation. To color the entire landscape of eroticism is a way of wiping out all difference and of thereby annulling the capacity of the observer ego to assume the painful work of discovering and differentiating the remains of an ancient cataclysm.

Corps/groupe. Réciprocités imaginaires
Authors: Kaës René
Published: March 2024

Le lexique, l’art, le jeu et le rêve témoignent d’un rapport analogique fondamental entre l’image du corps et la figure du groupe. Ce jeu d’équivalence est arrimé dans l’inconscient, il s’établit dans l’indistinction primitive du corps maternel, du corps propre et du groupe familial. La groupalité de l’image du corps et la corporéité de l’image du groupe assurent, par coïncidence imaginaire ou relation symbolique, la réciprocité des espaces et des objets du corps avec ceux du groupe. Si le groupe est le double du corps, ils se soutiennent mutuellement dans les fondements narcissiques de l’identification, et dans les processus d'appareillage des liens intersubjectifs. L'usage de la métaphore biologique du groupe comme corps conduit à un examen critique des représentations identifiant «corps familial» et «corps social».
Femmes et hommes dans le groupe thérapeutique : des stéréotypes à la relation personnelle
Authors: Corbella Sylvia
Published: March 2024

Il ressort souvent, dans les thématiques abordées par les patients, des problèmes liés à l’identité sexuelle et à la relation avec le sexe opposé. L’émancipation féminine et, par voie de conséquence, la déstabilisation du patriarcat, les ont amplifiés. La psychothérapie de groupe, où femmes et hommes sont confrontés directement, est le dispositif le plus approprié pour aborder ces questions ; j’illustre cela par des exemples cliniques. L'identité sexuelle se constitue dans un contexte relationnel à travers des processus d'identification et de différenciation intrinsèques au devenir du groupe toujours sous-tendu par la dialectique fusion-individuation. Dans l'interaction groupale, il est possible d'affronter à nouveau toutes les étapes fondamentales de la maturation personnelle, de la signification d'être femme ou homme et du rapport au sexe opposé. Ceci permet d'aller au-delà des rôles stéréotypés appris dans la famille et dans la société, et de rendre le rapport homme-femme authentique et personnel.

Le dessin comme médiation groupale
Authors: Jaitin Rosa
Published: March 2024

El dibujo como mediación grupal.

Yo supuse que la cuestión del dibujo colectivo da cuenta de una crisis epistémica inducada por un proceso de regresíon temporal, formal y tópico, que estaria ligado a la situación del grupo de formación en la institución y a la mediación propuesta. Para ello incluí très niveles como método de interpretación de los dibujos grupales : el aspecto metommico, las relaciones espacio-temporales y el análisis metafórico de los dibujos grupales. Esto me permitió construir cadenas de representaciones gráficas (a nivel formal, tópico y temporal de cada dibujo) a través de las cuales he observado diferentes representaciones culturales del espacio epistémico en los dibujos.

A continuación presento un dibujo grupal y très dibujos individuals del mismo grupo. La regresión formal de la representación del espacio epistémico se présenta como la diferencia escencial entre el dibujo individual y el dibujo grupal.
La psycho-anthropologie à l’épreuve de la migration
Authors: Belkaïd Nadia
Published: March 2024

L'analyse des modes de rapprochement disciplinaire (approches pluridisciplinaire, interdisciplinaire, ethnopsychanalyse complémentariste) entre le psychologique et l'anthropologique nous permet de décrire les différentes formes d'articulation entre le subjectif et le culturel, et d'en évaluer les implications concernant la saisie et la définition du concept de culture. S'agissant des sujets en situation interculturelle, les recherches mettent l'accent sur les antagonismes culturels à travers la notion de conflit culturel, pour lequel il nous est apparu nécessaire d'interroger les critères de production des différences. Par ailleurs, parce qu'il implique une antériorité par rapport au sujet, le conflit culturel ne peut s'inscrire dans une dialectique entre l'individuel et le collectif. L’intégration de la pluralité par le sujet est à resituer dans le champ des rapports sociaux où les identités sont «négociées». Les réappropriations et manipulations culturelles s'opèrent dans ce cadre, et modifient la continuité entre l’ontologique et le pragmatique.

Un padre, par y pasa.

Si el grupo terapèutico de adolescentes corresponde bastante estrechemente a las necesidades pulsionales y a las defensas caractenstícas de esa edad, el autor muestra que hay diferencias entre las chicas y los chicos. Estas diferencias explican por parte el hecho que las jovenes adolescentes parezcan mas bien refractarias a emprender un trabajo de grupo terapeutico, mientras que las adolescentes de mas edad toleran mejor ésta proposicion ; en los chicos la relacion es inversa.

Psychotherapeutic group for anorexics and bulimics clinical aspects.

The author, through the presentation of this clinic matter, wants to mark the chance of using the analitycal group even in very particular and also extreme situations, as working with anorexic et bulimic teen-agers. The author starts from the theorical and clinical point of view by Bion and the Italian school, that much has done in deepening and developping Bion’s thought : we can remember, among others, Corrao, Neri, Gaburri, Baruzzi. The group is led and dealt in tis holistic dimension, even tough, in its internal, individualities and specificities of everyone are searched and understood ; the author thinks that this is very important for anorexic and bulimic patients. As a matter of fact, if constituing a common identification, based on a shared sorrow, can be necessary, at the beginning, in the following evolution of the group, it is also important to make single specificities
Le sujet et son double en psychodrame
Authors: Laxenaire Michel
Published: March 2024

Le mythe du double, dans sa forme archaïque, répond à un désir ancestral d'immortalité. Il signifie dans ce cas négation de la mort et souhait de vivre éternellement sous un aspect à la fois identique et différent, ce qui explique que beaucoup de religions l’incluent dans leurs dogmes. La littérature, au cours du temps, a pris le mythe du double comme thème de nombreux récits, contes et drames. En psychodrame, le concept de double est au centre de la théorie comme de la technique. A partir du paradoxe du comédien de Diderot, de la théorie des rôles de Moreno, du thème du double étudié par Otto Rank et des conceptions psychanalytiques de Freud et de Lacan, l’auteur montre, par des exemples cliniques, que le thème du double est d'une utilité considérable dans la pratique du psychodrame psychanalytique de groupe.

Interrogantes sobre la noción de identificación

Cuestionamiento sobre la noción de identificación en el contexto de la teoría psicoanalítica y algunos inicios para enfocar un descentre de la función de apropiación identificante.

Desde una perspectiva donde el sujeto y el entorno son considerados como recíprocamente activos y transformadores, la noción de identificación podria perder en parte su interés en beneficio de otros procesos grupales. Pero éstos reclaman ser todavía más precisados y articulados con el conjunto de una teorización psicoanalítica que tendría que ser tambièn ella retomada.
Petit groupe et identifications, institutions et fondation. Nouvelles approches
Authors: Missenard André
Published: March 2024

Dans les petits groupes avec psychanalystes, les positions respectives initiales des analystes — qui sont fondateurs de la situation — et des participants, sont en décalage.

Ce décalage favorise et développe des effets de transfert. Ceux-ci sont à l’origine des processus identificatoires inconscients, archaïques ou secondaires, qui structurent la vie psychique dans ces groupes. Ils sont décrits dans le présent travail.

Les groupes ou les institutions établies par un fondateur sont dans une relation d’objet primaire à celui-ci. La possibilité, ou non, d’élaboration de cette relation a des effets sur le destin du groupe et/ou de l’institution.

Recent advances in formal methods for constructing parsers have employed the notion of combinators: primitive elemental parsers with well-defined methods for combining them in sequences or through choice. This paper explores the subtleties associated with leveraging sequence combinators to produce compact, custom hardware traffic validators. This involves a fully automated process that takes as input a formal grammar specifying message formats and produces a parsing circuit capable of validating traffic headers and payload content. The resulting circuit is deployed through network guard appliances that employ Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices, or alternatively, within the on-chip FPGA associated with System-on-Chip (SoC) devices, such as the Xilinx UltraScale MPSoC. Each guard appliance acts as a hidden “bump-in-the-wire” that either forwards or drops individual packets based on the message parsing outcome, thereby hardening network segments against zero-day attacks and persistent implants. Guards may operate on a wide variety traffic protocols and formats including TCP/IP, CAN/J1939, or MIL-STD-1553. The central step in parser construction is to build a collection of standard shift/reduce parsing tables that can be employed by a push-down automata to check each byte in a message. Typically, these tables are sparse, resulting in excessive use of FPGA circuit resources to represent them. By leveraging sequence combinators, along with other optimizations, we have been able to produce highly compact representations that can reduce table size by up to 95% for non-trivial grammars. Depending on the grammar, this translates directly into FPGA resource reductions. The reductions now make it viable to implement complex parsers on small, inexpensive FPGA’s, or alternatively combine parsers with encryption and encapsulation to enhance guard capabilities.
Can You Give Me a Lift?

Static Analysis (SA) is the practice of examining computer program source code for errors or vulnerabilities outside the compiler’s capabilities. To carry out Static Analysis on computer programs, various tools exist that parse and examine each line for known issues. These tools do not compile the program, nor do they run the program. Instead, they analyse the source code directly and infer properties about the program without executing it - thus “static” analysis. Static analysis is not new. Early UNIX contained a program called “lint” for static analysis; a tool that has now existed since the late 1970s (Johnson 1978). Increasingly, however, modern static analysis practices indicate a more focused intent; find cybersecurity weaknesses. At the 22nd European Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security, the authors presented the background of Intermediate Representations (IRs) and described how this “middleware” representation can be utilized for static analysis of source code for cybersecurity weaknesses. By examining an IR, potential flaws in the source code can be located. When utilizing the IR as opposed to the original high-level language, the static analysis process becomes independent of the original source language; if several languages such as C, Rust, and others all compile into the same IR, static analysis of the IR allows the analysis process to no longer be tied to the high-level language grammar or syntax. The previous paper implemented a literature survey of available IR analysis tools to discover prior work; the authors have subsequently advanced the research and are actively using an IR framework, LLVM, for vulnerability analysis. In this research, source code in a high-level language is first compiled to LLVM and the resulting IR is used for analysis. This approach uses a “code-to-IR” SA analysis preparation paradigm. At the same time, there is the potential for binary “lifters” to be used. These tools “lift” an executable program – binary machine instructions – back to LLVM. In this way, the paradigm can also be reversed such that static analysis of LLVM can be performed on source code compiled into LLVM, or on executable programs in the field that are “lifted”. This begs: how effective are these “lifters”? In this work, the authors present experiences in installation and operation of several binary “lifters” available as open-source projects. Some are supported better than others, some operate better than others, and some don’t operate at all. Those that do lead to the follow-up: Is the “lifted” code suitable for static analysis, or is it too obfuscated relative to the original program? This paper describes just that – our efforts and results in locating a binary “lifter” suitable for bringing executable program test cases back to LLVM for analysis by the cybersecurity vulnerability tool concurrently under development.
Typology of State Actors' Behavior in Cyber Space

Cyberwar is no longer subject to "if" but "when." Despite growing interest in cyberspace and cyber war readiness and resilience among academics, researchers, policymakers, and the media, the area needs to be more robust with different terminology that strategically captures the activities of state actors in cyberspace. The paper aims to provide a strategic classification of the activities of state actors in cyberspace. A typology is developed to encapsulate the strategic complexity of the activities of state actors in this terrain. The typology can illuminate the current global proportion and payoff of each type.
Chain of Custody and Evidence Integrity Verification Using Blockchain Technology
Authors: Miller Adir , Singh Avinash
Published: March 2024

The validity and integrity of digital evidence and the chain of custody are crucial to all digital forensic investigations. All new evidence and access logs of the original evidence should be logged in a document called the ‘chain of custody’. This document shows the timeline of any piece of evidence from the time it was recorded until the end of the investigation. In a traditional digital investigation, trusted parties, such as an investigator, are allowed access to the digital evidence and follow a strict process when dealing with data. These trusted parties have the capability to alter the data making the evidence inadmissible in a court of law. Alternatively, these trusted parties may also alter the data accidentally or with malicious intent, due to a lack of transparency and non-repudiation. Blockchain technology can solve this issue, however, existing research shows that adopting blockchain does not provide adequate transparent access control mechanisms. Consequently, this makes blockchain difficult to adopt due to the one-to-one mapping and the inability to easily validate the chain of custody and evidence admissibility.  Current methodologies rely on an external off-chain access control mechanism, which, regrettably, remains susceptible to potential breaches that could compromise its integrity and validity. This paper proposes an enhanced model to provide access control through smart contracts, ensuring immutability, flexibility, transparency, and non-repudiation of both the access control mechanisms and the digital evidence itself. This is achieved by moving the access control mechanism to the blockchain. This tracks any changes made through the access control mechanism, further ensuring transparency and integrity. This smart contract-based access control builds off role-based access control, allowing for more complex hierarchies to be used. This model aims to allow for both modularity, making adoption easier for existing digital forensic tools, and encouraging digital investigation and litigation to become more streamlined.  Existing tools can easily integrate with the proposed model adding an extra layer of non-repudiation, transparency, and integrity.
Ransomware Detection Using Portable Executable Imports

Published: March 2024

In recent years, there has been a substantial surge in ransomware attacks, wreaking havoc on both organizations and individuals. These attacks, driven by the lure of profits, particularly with the widespread use of cryptocurrencies, have prompted attackers to continuously develop innovative evasion techniques and obfuscation tactics to avoid detection. Ransomware, employing seemingly benign functions such as encryption and file-locking, poses a formidable challenge for detection as it evolves beyond traditional signature-based methods. Consequently, there is a growing need to identify previously unexplored and unstudied ransomware strains, necessitating the deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) to discern the unique characteristics and objectives of ransomware. The adoption of AI hinges on the prior selection of distinguishing features. Given that ransomware's intent fundamentally differs from that of benign files, there are variations in the structure of Portable Executables (PE) files. This study posits that the imports used by PE files can serve as a discriminating factor between ransomware and benign files. This research explored using machine learning models to detect ransomware by analysing and deriving insights from the PE Imports structure. To achieve this, the study trains seven machine learning classifiers, namely Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbors, Gradient Boost, and Decision Tree. These models are trained on a dataset of carefully selected features derived from PE imports. The classifiers are benchmarked and ranked based on several evaluation metrics, including latency, accuracy, and confidence levels. For a model to be effective in ransomware detection, it should offer near real-time and highly confident accuracy. In other words, it should exhibit low latency, high accuracy, and strong AUC rates. Among the models, Logistic Regression emerges as the top performer, identifying ransomware programs with an impressive 98.5% accuracy and a confidence level of 98.6% within a mere 0.998-millisecond latency. This study conclusively affirms the efficacy of employing PE imports for ransomware detection.

The maritime industry plays a pivotal role in the modern economy, global trade, safety and transportation globally. Due to the rapid advancement and utilisation of technology in the field, the maritime industry is increasingly vulnerable to cybersecurity threats. The last decade saw many instances of infrastructure having been exploited or attacked, such as the maritime vessels themselves, the port infrastructure and the supply chain. Each component constituting the maritime industry requires unique system critical operations to ensure cybersecurity, however this paper focuses on certain aspects of the maritime industry only. As cybersecurity in the maritime industry is a growing field, this study determines the scope of cybersecurity research on maritime infrastructure which has been published to establish a baseline understanding of the current field. The paper presents the results from a systematic literature review conducted to assess the scope of current cybersecurity work published focusing on the maritime industry. The result from the study clearly shows the increased attention to cybersecurity in the maritime industry, which can be seen from the increased number of publications which showed a sharp increase after 2014.
