Microsoft Research Working On New Malware Detection Tool ‘Zozzle&rsqu
2010-12-03 11:15:00 In the last several years, we have seen a tremendous increase in JavaScript malware-based attacks owing to the memory vulnerabilities of the system. These kind of attacks are hard to locate and can be easily mounted against an unsuspecting user visiting a seemingly innocent website. While several techniques have been proposed to tackle it but none are light enough to be integrated into a commercial browser. But now, people at Microsoft Research are working on a new tool called “Zozzle” that can be deployed in the browser and can detect JavaScript-based malware at a very high effectiveness rate. Zozzle is mostly a static detector that can examine a page and determine if it contains a malicious code for an exploit (better known as heap spray object). The runtime component of Zozzle takes care of the malicious JavaScript segment. Zozzle is integrated with browser’s JavaScript engine to collect and process JavaScript code that is created at runtime. However in order t...

Finally Microsoft Research Finds New Love In India’s Unique ID Projec
2010-01-27 10:42:00 Earlier, we told you how Google, Yahoo, Cisco & Intel have expressed a lot of interest in India’s Unique ID Number project – which is an initiative by the Indian Government set up a centralized identification system for the Indian citizens which can be used for various kinds of identification purposes. Now Microsoft has joined the race too! Finally the research wing of Microsoft feels that it may have some exciting opportunities for itself in the UID Project in areas related to user interface, multi-lingual systems, mobility and secure database management according to a news report and for this Microsoft Research is already discussing possible options with Mr. Nandan Nilekani who is the Chairman of the UID Project. Dr P. Anandan, Managing Director, Microsoft Research (MSR) India while speaking at TechVista 2010′ research symposium expressed his interest in the UID project saying that it presents exciting challenges and interesting research possibilitie...

Browse the Sky with WorldWide Telescope from Microsoft Research
2008-05-13 07:43:00 Want to try out for yourself what made Robert Scoble cry? Tonight, Microsoft Research has made available the Spring Beta of WorldWide Telescope. Download: WorldWide Telescope Spring Release WorldWide Telescope is an application designed to turn your PC into a "virtual telescope" by stitching together terabytes (soon to be petabytes) of high-resolution images of the universe. Massive amounts of data are generated by the various scientific and research facilities and WorldWide Telescope brings the catalog of that data together for anyone to access using the power of the Internet. This new application is particularly exciting for me being someone really heavy into astronomy. You can also use WorldWide Telescope and connect an ASCOM-capable Telescope to your PC to watch the night sky. WorldWide Telescope lets me connect to Communities, access Collections of celestial objects such as the Solar System or Constellations, or take Guides Tours. Using my mouse, I can navigate ...

Microsoft ThinSight
2007-10-23 22:20:00 A computer screen that also acts as a two-handed touch interface and a crude infrared camera has been developed by researchers at Microsoft's labs in the UK. Users can operate the display with both hands, in a similar manner to the display in the film Minority Report. But this screen can also recognize particular hand gestures as well as objects placed within a centimeter of its surface. "It can sense much more than fingers, and is essentially a low resolution scanner and camera," says lead researcher Shahram Izadi. The screen can even communicate wirelessly with other devices nearby using the same infrared technology it uses to see. The technology ? dubbed ThinSight ? was developed by adding an extra layer of electronics behind a normal laptop screen. This adds a couple of centimeters to the overall thickness, but completely transforms its abilities. The screen "sees" by using a grid of paired infrared sensors and transmitters that sit just behind the backl...
