Security Assessment of Private Package Repositories: An Experience on Acc‐Py at CERN

Journal of Software: Evolution and Process, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The introduction of package managers had a huge impact on software development, as they facilitate dependency management and the access to reusable code components. However, reliance on centralized repositories introduces security risks, as they are increasingly exploited in supply chain attacks.

Decentralised firewall for malware detection [PDF]

2017 International Conference on Advances in Computing, Communication and Control (ICAC3), 2017
This paper describes the design and development of a decentralized firewall system powered by a novel malware detection engine. The firewall is built using blockchain technology. The detection engine aims to classify Portable Executable (PE) files as malicious or benign. File classification is carried out using a deep belief neural network (DBN) as the

AlquistCoder: A Synthetic Data Approach to Training Compact Secure Coding Assistants and Building Security Benchmarks

Computational Intelligence, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Large language models are increasingly used as programming assistants, but their security behavior remains uneven: they may generate code with vulnerable patterns, and they may provide actionable help for malicious requests. This paper introduces AlquistCoder, a compact 3.8B‐parameter coding assistant designed to address both risks through ...

Harnessing Generative AI Within Human‐Aligned Constraints: Exploring Control Strategies and Existential Considerations

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
We propose the Powerful‐but‐Limited Generative AI theorem, demonstrating that embedding human‐inspired constraints, such as fixed utility functions and neuro‐symbolic submission layers, ensures generative AI remains controllable by preventing self‐improvement beyond designer intent.
