Dr. Kevin Kornegay, SPLICE PI at Morgan State University, is one of 502 scientists and engineers elected as an American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Fellow “for seminal contributions to the field of electrical engineering, and most notably integrated circuits, wide-bandgap semiconductor devices, and IoT device security.“ “AAAS first launched this lifetime recognition… Read More PI Kornegay Elected to the Rank of AAAS Fellow

New SPLICE Publication: Patient-Centered Communication

Patient-Centered Communication (PCC) is considered essential for high-quality care and is positively associated with uptake of beneficial health behaviors. This study aims to identify the relationships between PCC and patient use of online portals — secure websites through which they can access their electronic health records, schedule doctor appointments, order prescription refills, and communicate with… Read More New SPLICE Publication: Patient-Centered Communication

New SPLICE Publication: Evaluating the practical range of harmonic radar to detect smart electronics

Previous work demonstrates the use of harmonic radars to accurately detect the presence of even ‘simple’ electronic devices, like a smart lightbulb, in a home setting. In this paper, we work to understand the range of a harmonic radar’s ability to discover electronic devices. With a two-antenna setup, we observed a range of at least 2… Read More New SPLICE Publication: Evaluating the practical range of harmonic radar to detect smart electronics

New SPLICE Publication on Culturally Responsive Strategies to Inspire African American Female Participation in Cybersecurity

To increase African American female participation in cybersecurity, STEM education requires a new approach to student engagement. The most common approach to engaging more African American women in STEM is to provide students with professional images or role models active in STEM; however, this is not enough. More race-centered strategies beyond role-modeling are needed to… Read More New SPLICE Publication on Culturally Responsive Strategies to Inspire African American Female Participation in Cybersecurity

SPLICE Publication: Template Attack Against AES-CTR With Unknown Initial Counter

Mathematical vulnerabilities of Advanced Encryption Standard in counter mode (AES-CTR) stem from misuse or reuse of the nonce. Assuming proper use of the nonce, unraveling the encryption becomes increasingly complex. SPLICE team members show full key recovery for a software implementation of AES-CTR using a template attack. They also refine the template attack’s points of… Read More SPLICE Publication: Template Attack Against AES-CTR With Unknown Initial Counter

SPLICE Publication: Family Caregivers’ Experiences With Telehealth

With the COVID-19 pandemic limiting many in-person activities, including in-person doctor’s appointments, medical care providers increasingly used telehealth as an alternative way to connect with their patients. Team members at the University of Michigan conducted an online survey with 90 family caregivers across the state of Michigan to learn about their older relative’s experiences with… Read More SPLICE Publication: Family Caregivers’ Experiences With Telehealth
