Gul, M. junaid, Rabia, Riaz, Jararweh, Yaser, Rathore, M. Mazhar, Paul, Anand.  2019.  Security Flaws of Operating System Against Live Device Attacks: A case study on live Linux distribution device. 2019 Sixth International Conference on Software Defined Systems (SDS). :154–159.
Live Linux distribution devices can hold Linux operating system for portability. Using such devices and distributions, one can access system or critical files, which otherwise cannot be accessed by guest or any unauthorized user. Events like file leakage before the official announcement. These announcements can vary from mobile companies to software industries. Damages caused by such vulnerabilities can be data theft, data tampering, or permanent deletion of certain records. This study uncovers the security flaws of operating system against live device attacks. For this study, we used live devices with different Linux distributions. Target operating systems are exposed to live device attacks and their behavior is recorded against different Linux distribution. This study also compares the robustness level of different operating system against such attacks.
