Secure Internet of Things Based on Blockchain
Centralized networks can host ubiquitous interconnected objects using Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. It is also possible to implement decentralized peer-to-peer solutions using blockchain technology, including smart homes and connected cars. However, both models have limitations regarding their ability to provide privacy and security due to limited resources, centralization management, and scalability, cost, and response time. The diversity of IoT network nodes is expected to result in different throughputs and rates. Centralized networks control and improve the performance of a large number of IoT devices. However, centralizing systems suffer from a number of disadvantages. A third party often has to manipulate the data collected by central cloud storage, which could lead to information leaks that could compromise the user’s privacy.

Blockchain-Based Authentication Framework for Secure IoT Networks
Most current research on decentralized IoT applications focuses on a specific vulnerability. However, for IoT applications, only a limited number of techniques are dedicated to handling privacy and trust concerns. To address that, blockchain-based solutions that improve the quality of IoT networks are becoming increasingly used. In the context of IoT security, a blockchain-based authentication framework could be used to store and verify the identities of devices in a decentralized manner, allowing them to communicate with each other and with external systems in a secure and trust-less manner.

AraMAMS Restaurants Reviews Corpus for Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis
AraMA comprises 10,750 Google Maps reviews for restaurants in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It covers four aspect categories—food, environment, service, and price—along with four sentiment polarities: positive, negative, neutral, and conflict. All AraMA reviews are labeled with at least two aspect categories. A second version, named AraMAMS, includes reviews labeled with at least two different sentiments, making it the first Arabic multi-aspect, multi-sentiment dataset. Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) is a field of SA that goes one step further than SA by automatically assigning sentiments to certain features or aspects in the text.

Enhancing Ransomware Attack Detection on Cloud-Encrypted Data
Ransomware attacks on cloud-encrypted data pose a significant risk to the security and privacy of cloud-based businesses and their consumers. RANSOMNET+, a state-of-the-art hybrid model that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with pre-trained transformers, to efficiently take on the challenging issue of ransomware attack classification. RANSOMNET+ excels over other models because it combines the greatest features of both architectures, allowing it to capture hierarchical features and local patterns. The findings demonstrate the exceptional capabilities of RANSOMNET+. The model had a fantastic precision of 99.5%, recall of 98.5%, and F1 score of 97.64%, and attained a training accuracy of 99.6% and a testing accuracy of 99.1%. The loss values for RANSOMNET+ were impressively low, ranging from 0.0003 to 0.0035 throughout training and testing. RANSOMNET+ excelled over the other two models in terms of F1 score, accuracy, precision, and recall. The algorithm’s decision-making process was also illuminated by RANSOMNET+’s interpretability analysis and graphical representations. The model’s openness and usefulness were improved by the incorporation of feature distributions, outlier detection, and feature importance analysis. Finally, RANSOMNET+ is a huge improvement in cloud safety and ransomware research. As a result of its unrivaled accuracy and resilience, it provides a formidable line of defense against ransomware attacks on cloud-encrypted data, keeping sensitive information secure and ensuring the reliability of cloud-stored data. Cybersecurity professionals and cloud service providers now have a reliable tool to combat ransomware threats thanks to this research.

Zero-Day Attack and Cybersecurity on Twitter
In the information era, knowledge can pose risks in the online realm. It is imperative to proactively recognize potential threats, as unforeseen dangers cannot be eliminated entirely. Often, malware exploits and other emerging hazards are only identified after they have occurred. These types of risks are referred to as zero-day attacks since no pre-existing anti-malware measures are available to mitigate them. Consequently, significant damages occur when vulnerabilities in systems are exploited. The effectiveness of security systems, such as IPS and IDS, relies heavily on the prompt and efficient response to emerging threats.
