Boost Your Immunity: VACCINE for Preventing a Novel Stealthy Slice Selection Attack in 5G and Beyond

G networks can offer network slices customized according to the demands of the services to enhance the quality of their users’ experience. The time for selecting an appropriate network slice to facilitate traffic flow between users and services by the core network functions in 5G networks is crucial for services such as emergency service and ultra-reliable low latency services. Therefore, we propose a distributed slice selection architecture for 5G and beyond networks to reduce the waiting time for starting services for users. The proposed architecture distributes slice selection function (SSF) to the edge of the network. The networks have to ensure stealthy slice selection attack (S3 attack) free operation, as moving the SSF to the edge increases attack surface. Attackers can launch S3 attack by manipulating the slice selection decisions of SSFs distributed in the network edge. The S3 attacker intentionally maps service requests from users to inappropriate network slices to damage cloud radio access network utilization and the quality of experience of users. In this article, we also present a countermeasure to tackle the S3 attack using a novel protocol called VACCINE ( v erifi a ble priva c y-preserving proto c ol for sl i ce selectio n in 5G and beyond n e tworks). VACCINE also ensures privacy-preserving slice selection by the SSFs to prevent traffic analysis attacks. We prove the chosen-ciphertext attack security strength of VACCINE and also compare the computational cost of VACCINE with other related protocols.

Green Ads, Green Hearts: How Ads and Caring for The Planet Boost Your Eco-Friendly Shopping Goals

Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior, this research investigates the relationship between green advertising, green purchase intention, and environmental concern, employing a structural model analysis to explain their complex dynamics. Through careful examination of empirical data, it is established that green advertising exerts a significant positive influence on both green purchase intention and environmental concern. However, contrary to initial hypotheses, environmental concern does not act as a mediator between green advertising and green purchase intention which is unexpected, nor does it directly influence green purchase intention. These findings highlight the complex nature of consumer behavior in the context of sustainability, highlighting the interplay between advertising stimuli, environmental attitudes, and purchasing intentions. By shedding light on these dynamics, this study contributes to the scholarly discourse surrounding environmentally responsible consumption patterns, providing valuable insights for marketers, policymakers, and researchers alike.

Explore More! How New Environments May Boost Your Memory

Previous scientific studies have suggested that being in new places or situations can boost memory in young adults! We wanted to find out if this effect is also present in younger children and older adults. Our results showed that children, adolescents, and young adults who spent time exploring a new environment could remember more information than people who spent time exploring a familiar environment. This means that in younger people, but not older people, memory was boosted after exploring a new place. We also discovered that these memory benefits apply to learning movement skills. In the future, we hope to understand the brain’s role in these memory benefits.

Move Your Body, Boost Your Brain: The Positive Impact of Physical Activity on Cognition across All Age Groups.

While the physical improvements from exercise have been well documented over the years, the impact of physical activity on mental health has recently become an object of interest. Physical exercise improves cognition, particularly attention, memory, and executive functions. However, the mechanisms underlying these effects have yet to be fully understood. Consequently, we conducted a narrative literature review concerning the association between acute and chronic physical activity and cognition to provide an overview of exercise-induced benefits during the lifetime of a person. Most previous papers mainly reported exercise-related greater expression of neurotransmitter and neurotrophic factors. Recently, structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging techniques allowed for the detection of increased grey matter volumes for specific brain regions and substantial modifications in the default mode, frontoparietal, and dorsal attention networks following exercise. Here, we highlighted that physical activity induced significant changes in functional brain activation and cognitive performance in every age group and could counteract psychological disorders and neural decline. No particular age group gained better benefits from exercise, and a specific exercise type could generate better cognitive improvements for a selected target subject. Further research should develop appropriate intervention programs concerning age and comorbidity to achieve the most significant cognitive outcomes.

Can Supplemented Skim Milk (SKM) Boost Your Gut Health?

The incorporation of functional ingredients, such as prebiotics and probiotics in food matrices, became a common practice in the human diet to improve the nutritional value of the food product itself. Worldwide, skim milk (SKM) is one of the most consumed food matrices, comprising all the essential nutrients desired for a balanced diet. Thus, the modulation of the human gut microbiota by SKM supplemented with different well-known functional ingredients was evaluated. Four well-studied prebiotics, fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) and inulin, and one probiotic product, UL-250® (Saccharomyces boulardii) were added at 1% (w/v) to SKM and subjected to a gastrointestinal in vitro model. The impact of each combination on gut microbiota profile and their fermentation metabolites (i.e., short-chain fatty acids–SCFA) was assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively. The addition of FOS to SKM had promising results, showing prebiotic potential by promoting the growth of Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Clostridium cluster IV. Moreover, the increment of SCFA levels and the decrease of total ammonia nitrogen were observed throughout colonic fermentation. Overall, these results demonstrate that the combination SKM + FOS was the most beneficial to the host’s health by positively modulating the gut microbiota.
