A New Vulnerability Reporting Framework for Software Vulnerability Databases
Scientific article
Cyber security is one of the fundamental research areas of software engineering. The systems that make up today's information systems infrastructure have been developed largely with software support. Security vulnerabilities in the software used in these systems may cause undesirable results. It is very important to manage software vulnerabilities correctly. In addition, an effective communication mechanism and certain standards should be established among those working in this field. The importance of the subject has been understood in recent years and the studies in this area have gradually increased. The use of machine learning algorithms is increasing in recent studies in this area. Although there is a large data set accumulated in vulnerability databases, there is often the problem of unstructured data. Vulnerability databases and security reports are created in natural language that people can understand and interpret. These reports are difficult to read and understand by machines. Our study focuses on the difficulties of this unstructured and natural language system. In order to investigate this problem, firstly, up-to-date and accessible databases used in scientific research were examined and evaluated. Then, a three-stage security framework was proposed, consisting of the use of vulnerabilities by machines to assist experts from the notification stage to the reporting stage. The rules and flow charts of each stage are defined. In order to increase the usability of different databases in their own systems, the framework rules are defined as a guideline containing flexible directions, not rigid items. The point of consideration is not the methods and tools used, but the definition of outputs as common and similar attributes.

A Practical Scheme for Implementing Client Side Encryptions and Decryptions
Scientific article
The amount of data that is generated each day is rapidly increasing so that the traditional ways of data storage seems to be inadequate. Cloud Computing has helped a lot to solve the storage issues but fear of data leakage hinders its widespread acceptance. Even though the public clouds like Amazon, Google etc store the data in encrypted form, data loss can still occur during transmission. The only practical solution is to upload encrypted data to cloud. Hence users should have an additional software or application to encrypt the data before uploading and decrypt the data after retrieval. This article analyzes different solutions for implementing such applications. The article also describes about the cryptographic primitives that can be added for enforcing security.

The metaverse provides a plethora of opportunities to vastly expand and realize the capabilities of our imagination as technology materializes ideas into intractable objects for an enhanced experience. The metaverse can also impact the education sector offering a unique opportunity to revolutionize education by providing immersive and interactive learning experiences through 3D avatars. In traditional libraries, students read books to learn about a vast array of topics and can visualize those topics through 2D images provided in the books, but such images might not always be the best stimulus to enhance the reader’s imagination. The introduction and integration of “Digital Libraries” through the Metaverse enable school students to explore various subjects in 3D environments, providing a practical approach to knowledge and improving comprehension, resulting in enjoyable and effective learning experiences. Metaverse enables seamless embodied user communication in real-time and dynamic interactions with digital antiquities. Besides, a digital library is defined as an online database of digital collections. It contains a lot of papers and resources which are arranged digitally. Its benefits include effectiveness, accuracy, authenticity assurance, simpler plagiarism management, easy accessibility, and high convenience. However, it has its drawbacks too such as copyright issues, distractions due to notifications, and various health hazards. In response to those drawbacks, how a digital library may use the Metaverse to add visual and auditory effects to enrich information provided in books has been illustrated, and how digital libraries in the Metaverse have the potential to revolutionize education while also addressing and potentially solving the problems that afflict traditional libraries has been highlighted by suggesting a prototype of the digital library in the Metaverse.

A Survey on Community Detection Methods in Social Networks
Scientific article
A social network is a social structure made up of a set nodes, which represents social actors (such as people, organizations), and edges or lines represents relationship between these nodes or actors. Social networks have important roles in the dispersal of information and innovation, the analysis of such networks, attracted much attention in the research area. The analysis of social network can be done as a whole, which means the representations of all of its actors and identification of structures, present in that social network, that lead to the presence of communities. In the method of community detection, the main aim is to partition the network into dense regions of the graph, and those dense regions typically correspond to entities which are closely related, and can hence be said to belong to a community. In any complex network, communities are able to exchange and offer information because members in one community have similar tastes and desires. The determination of such communities is useful in the context of a variety of applications in social-network analysis, including customer segmentation, recommendations, link inference, and vertex labeling and influence analysis. This paper presents a survey on community detection approaches, which have already been proposed, and also discussing the type of social networks on which those proposed approaches are applicable. This survey can play a significant role in the analysis and evaluation of community detection approaches in different application domains.
