Modern network applications such as mobile applications and browser extensions have become the primary gateways for consumers to access the Internet in today’s digital landscape. This project aims to address privacy issues in these ecosystems by developing a new privacy-compliance assessment framework. The framework will evaluate the current privacy practices of application ecosystems, enabling users and developers in Australia and worldwide to reliably identify potential privacy risks and issues on their applications. The intended outcomes should endow data controllers with the capability of evidencing their compliance of data protection legislations such as Australia Privacy Act 1988 and EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).Read moreRead less

Summary
Effective integration of human and automated analyses for security testing. This DECRA project aims to significantly improve the performance of current state-of-the-art automated security testing approaches, enabling them to discover more security bugs in strict time constraints. The key innovation of the project is its novel way to embrace human element to leverage the ingenuity of the developers. This project will help companies improve the security and reliability of their products, thwarting ....Effective integration of human and automated analyses for security testing. This DECRA project aims to significantly improve the performance of current state-of-the-art automated security testing approaches, enabling them to discover more security bugs in strict time constraints. The key innovation of the project is its novel way to embrace human element to leverage the ingenuity of the developers. This project will help companies improve the security and reliability of their products, thwarting cyberattacks that cost Australian business $29 billion each year. The knowledge from this project will be transferred and integrated into higher education subjects to train the next generations of software developers, who are responsible to build security-critical systems that we all rely on now and in the future.Read moreRead less
