Sensitive data stored on smartphones attract different threats including malware. Among mobile
platforms, Android is the most popular OS with malware targeting sensitive information and other
mobile services. If malware infects a digital device, then it has control over the device's
functionality and data. This can impact your finances, your privacy, and your access to your data.
Malware is a threat not only to individuals but also to corporate organisations and financial
institutions as well. This could lead to communication traffic of an infected network, hardware
failure of the physical device, data theft, and loss of critical business data, among others. There are
existing detection techniques for identifying Android malware. However, these techniques are
limited in detecting evolving and sophisticated malware which use permission features as attack
vectors in a smart fashion to infect Android mobile devices. To improve malware detection accuracy based on the related problem, we developed techniques
for identifying Android-based malicious applications. To achieve this, the author presents a
thorough review of the mobile malware evolution and infection strategies. The second part of the
survey covers Android mobile malware detection, classification, and analysis techniques where
the author identifies their efficacy in detecting evolving malware and their limitations. The author
identifies through the review research gaps which open unto the development of different and
novel solutions for Android malware classification and analysis. We leveraged the existing strengths of the previous methods to develop a robust novel automated
framework to classify and analyse Android malware based on permission features. Classification
accuracy of 97% was achieved with our framework with a False Positive Rate of 3%. Our
techniques identified privileges that malware exploits as attack vectors to infect Android-based
devices. The results demonstrate that our framework has high feature diversity capabilities for
Android malware classification. We identified that there are permissions with similar attributes
that are correlated and can trigger the installation of similar permissions with the same threat level
especially. However, these prevention techniques are not tested on other mobile platforms' data
and do not focus on mitigating pileup susceptibilities. Finally, we believe that as the results of this
research are being made public and cited by organizations and individuals, the outcome of this will
influence the security and social policies that mobile companies will implement based on some of
the recommendations by our findings.PH

A Vietnamese Moses : Philiphê Bỉnh and the geographies of early modern Catholicism /
No full text"A Vietnamese Moses is the story of Philiphê Binh, a Vietnamese Catholic priest who in 1796 traveled from Tonkin to the Portuguese court in Lisbon to persuade its ruler to appoint a bishop for his community of ex-Jesuits. Based on Binh's surviving writings from his thirty-seven-year exile in Portugal, this book examines how the intersections of global and local Roman Catholic geographies shaped the lives of Vietnamese Christians in the early modern era. The book also argues that Binh's mission to Portugal and his intense lobbying on behalf of his community reflected the agency of Vietnamese Catholics, who vigorously engaged with church politics in defense of their distinctive Portuguese-Catholic heritage. George E. Dutton demonstrates the ways in which Catholic beliefs, histories, and genealogies transformed how Vietnamese thought about themselves and their place in the world. This sophisticated exploration of Vietnamese engagement with both the Catholic Church and Napoleonic Europe provides a unique perspective on the complex history of early Vietnamese Christianity"--Publisher.Includes bibliographical references (pages 281-326) and index.Philiphê Bỉnh and the Catholic geographies of Tonkin -- A Catholic community in crisis -- Journeys : Macao, Goa, and Lisbon -- Arrival in Lisbon and first encounters -- Invoking the Padroado : Bỉnh and Prince Dom João -- Waiting for Bỉnh in Tonkin and Macao -- Life in Lisbon and the Casa do Espirito Santo, 1807-1833 -- The tales of Philiphê Bỉnh."A Vietnamese Moses is the story of Philiphê Binh, a Vietnamese Catholic priest who in 1796 traveled from Tonkin to the Portuguese court in Lisbon to persuade its ruler to appoint a bishop for his community of ex-Jesuits.

The Appeal of Exodus: The Characters God, Moses and Israel in the Rhetoric of the Book of Exodus
No full textThe present thesis offers a reading of the book of Exodus as a literary artifact. This is
accomplished through the investigation of its main literary characters Yhwh, Moses and
Israel. The text is understood to be part of a communicative situation between author and
reader. This hermeneutical claim and the nature of Exodus itself entail certain consequences
with regard to the method of enquiry. The method applied is a modified form of
rhetorical criticism, which is understood to provide an interpretive perspective on the text.
The particular focus is on the functional aspects of the text which direct the reading process
and thus guide the reader. Given the difficulties in determining the circumstances of
the origin of Exodus and the paucity of secured knowledge about early Israelite history, the
`implied reader' is introduced as a key-term. It is assumed that this implied reader informed
the inventio and dispositio of the book. Because of the book's central themes - identity
and relationship -a careful investigation of the characters is a worthy avenue to pursue.
Three characters have been chosen on account of their continuous involvement in the
plot. The introduction of each character into the plot receives special attention. The developing
portrayal of each character is closely linked to its paradigmatic qualities and to its influence
on the reader. First, the portrait of God is discussed, especially in relation to the
contributions of the narrative, poetic and legal parts of Exodus. The very important but
often neglected legal characterisation of Yhwh in Exodus is a topic of special interest. Although
the legal collections say much about their recipients, they also reveal deep insights
into the law-giver's nature and concerns. Yhwh is identified as the king who justly claims
obedience and service. A further focus is the possibility of the relationship between Israel
and their king, Yhwh. Second, with regard to Moses there is a significant difference between
his first appearance in Exod 2-5 and his later development. This remarkable tension
in the Mosaic portrayal reveals interesting insights into the implied reader's preconceptions.
Here we trace closely the argumentative strategy of the author in his attempts to convince
this reader. Furthermore, it is necessary to discuss the paradigmatic qualities of the character
Moses. Third, reader-identification is at the heart of the construction of Israel. Here the
historical gulf between the Israel of the narrative and the one of the implied reader is
bridged. The complexity of Israel is a central aspect of Exodus' rhetoric, urging its readers
to comply with the ideal which the author sought to communicate in his book.
The results of this study provide insights into the specific poetics of Exodus and its
management of the reading process. Because of the proposed unity of form and content, it
is possible to specify the message of the entire book by taking into account its intriguing
mixture of different genres. An abstraction from modern reading-conventions in the
encounter of ancient Hebrew texts is shown, and the possibility of reading the text on its
own terms is explored
Philo, the Gospel of John, and Two Moses Traditions: Traditionary Competition over a Cultural Icon
No full textThis article shows how Philo of Alexandria and the author of the Gospel of John represented Moses in contrasting ways within Hellenistic Judaism. It then argues that John's portrayal of Moses constitutes a contradiction to Philo's portrayal (and vice versa), suggesting that Philo and John represent two competing Moses traditions within first-century Judaism
Analysis of mobile malware, evolution and infection strategies: a systematic review
Full text linkThe open-source and popularity of Android attracts hackers and has multiplied security concerns targeting devices. As such, malware attacks on Android are one of the security challenges facing society. This paper presents an analysis of mobile malware evolution between 2000-2020. The paper presents mobile malware types and in-depth infection strategies malware deploys to infect mobile devices. Accordingly, factors that restricted the fast spread of early malware and those that enhance the fast propagation of recent malware are identified. Moreover, the paper discusses and classifies mobile malware based on privilege escalation and attack goals. Based on the reviewed survey papers, our research presents recommendations in the form of measures to cope with emerging security threats posed by malware and thus decrease threats and malware infection rates. Finally, we identify the need for a critical analysis of mobile malware frameworks to identify their weaknesses and strengths to develop a more robust, accurate, and scalable tool from an Android detection standpoint. The survey results facilitate the understanding of mobile malware evolution and the infection trend. They also help mobile malware analysts to understand the current evasion techniques mobile malware deploys.Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF), PTDF/ED/PHD/AMA/1245/17-1

Moses in the history of salvation
No full textMoses is undoubtedly one of the greatest biblical figures. His life and the role he played in the history of ancient Israel are exceptional. The paper is an attempt at a synthetic presentation of Moses' role in the history of salvation. In the first part the author analyzes the description of the birth of Moses and his mission, contained in the Pentateuch. The secondpart focuses on the analysis of the elements that make up the historical value of this figure, and the third part contains the analysis of the theological aspect of parallelism between Moses and Jesus
Moses in Jewish Bible
Full text linkU članku je riječ o povijesno-teološkoj analizi glavnih
tekstova o liku i ulozi Mojsija u židovskoj Bibliji. Autor u svojoj
analizi nastoji istodobno utvrditi povijesne činjenice koje su
vezane za ovu važnu osobu Staroga zavjeta i iznijeti na vidjelo
teološke motive koji su imali dubokog odražaja na oblikovanje
slike u Mojsiju i na njegovu ulogu u povijesti židovskoga naroda.
U tim tekstovima Mojsije izranja kao glavni posrednik i svjedok
sadržaja vjere i normi ponašanja za biblijske vjernike. Autor drži
da je ta slika o Mojsiju i njegovoj ulozi konačno oblikovana nakon
povratka iz Babilonskoga sužanjstva (5. stoljeće prije Krista, za
vrijeme Ezre i Nehemije), i otada je postala sastavni dio židovske
Biblije.The article deals with a historical-theological analysis of
the main texts about the character and role of Moses in the
Jewish Bible. In the analysis the author is trying to identify
the historical facts related to this important Old Testament
person and to bring to light the theological motives which deeply
influenced the formation of the image of Moses and his role in
the history of Jewish people. In these texts Moses emerges as
the main mediator and witness of the content of faith and norms
of behaviour for the biblical believers. The author holds that
the picture of Moses and his role was finally formed after the
Babylonian captivity (5th century BC, at the time of Ezra and
Nehemiah), and since then it has become an integral part of the
Jewish Bible
