Exploring the Synergistic Effects of Heavy Metal contaminants on Aquatic Organisms
Abstract: Human activities have a profound effect on aquatic habitats by altering water and sediment quality, which in turn impacts resident organisms. These changes are primarily caused by pollutants from agricultural, industrial, and health-related sources. Industrial effluents, often containing hazardous heavy metals such as chromium, manganese, and lead, are a major source of environmental toxicity. The discharge of these pollutants makes water unsafe for drinking, irrigation, and industrial uses, necessitating effective …

The Evolution of Bio Crypt Keys: From Concept to Implementation
Abstract: With the rapid increase in data exfiltration due to cyber-attacks, Covert Timing Channels (CTCs) have emerged as a significant and sophisticated network security threat. These channels exploit inter-arrival times of data packets to exfiltrate sensitive information from targeted networks. Detecting CTCs increasingly relies on machine learning techniques, which use statistical metrics to differentiate between malicious (covert) and legitimate (overt) traffic flows. However, as cyber-attacks become more adept at evading detection …
