AppShell: Making data protection practical for lost or stolen Android devices

Noms 2016 - 2016 ieee/ifip network operations and management symposium, 502–508.

By: Y. Zhou n, K. Singh & X. Jiang n

TL;DR: The proposed solution enables adaptive protection by pro-actively stepping up or stepping down data security based on perceived contextual risk of the device by transparently encrypting the data, and discarding the encryption key, when required, for enhanced protection.

An Architectural Approach to Preventing Code Injection Attacks

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON DEPENDABLE AND SECURE COMPUTING, 7(4), 351–365.

By: R. Riley*, X. Jiang n & D. Xu*

author keywords: Code injection; secure memory architecture
TL;DR: A change to the memory architecture of modern processors is proposed that addresses the code injection problem at its very root by virtually splitting memory into code memory and data memory such that a processor will never be able to fetch injected code for execution. (via Semantic Scholar)
