NCSA student research programmer's paper accepted at ISDFS19.

Illinois graduate student Shreya Udhani has recently authored a paper with College of Engineering’s Masooda Bashir and NCSA’s Alexander  Withers. The paper, "Human vs Bots: Detecting Human Attacks in a Honeypot Environment,” has been accepted at the 7th International Symposium on Digital Forensic and Security (ISDFS). Shreya is a student research programmer with NCSA’s Cybersecurity and Networking Division. The paper analyzes an SSH-based Honeypot deployed over a period of 423 days to identify human behavior traits which can essentially distinguish an automated attacker and a human attacker. The honeypot used in the experiment is part of the Science DMZ Actionable Intelligence Appliance (SDAIA), created here at NCSA.
