- Description/Abstract:
- The rise of smart home devices has allowed a cheap alternative to in-home security systems.With the increasing variety of different branded smart home devices such as lights, switches, motion sensors, and IP cameras, issues have become prevalent when trying to get the smart devices to work together. Many smart devices require a user to install a specific app based on the brand of the smart device. When more than one smart device from different brands is being used, this results in many smart device apps with no easy way to manage all smart devices together. Using an open source application called Home Assistant, our product will allow even a non-tech savvy user to easily manage all of their devices within one easy to use application. The user will be able to fill out an online form which will automatically create a Home Assistant instance that is configured precisely to the smart devices they have. This will allow users to quickly and easily set up a cheap in-home security system.

- Students need reliable places to study. When students are successful with their studies, they do better in class and achieve higher grades. Currently, there is no single solution at the University of Cincinnati to locate and reserve places to study. This is why our team built Book It. We want to put the power back in the hands of students, by providing them with a single solution which gives them access to real time data. The Book It web application solves these problems by delivering a tool that allows students to connect and find quality spaces to study together.

- Description/Abstract:
- With over 250,000 unique logins per day, Kroger Citrix requires significant administrative resources. Ticket counts periodically exceed the capacity of the Kroger Support Center (KSC) - most issues are simple but have time consuming fixes. To reduce overhead, this team intends to implement a tool for KSC members that will streamline functions such as: (1) resetting Citrix users’ profiles, (2) verifying Citrix entitlements, and (3) viewing user Active Directory information. An additional goal is to enable KSC members to resolve an increased number of tickets without the need for escalation. This team predicts a recovery of approximately ten to fifteen minutes per incident, providing significant cost and time savings. Reduced overhead will allow more resources for investigating potential access violations and improving account controls.

- Since early 1800s, yard sales and sale types alike have been a great way to declutter your house, discover rare items, and find a good deal. According to the poll conducted by Statistic Brain Research Institute, the average number of self-arranged sales held weekly in the USA is 165,000. However, the method of advertising and promoting these sales has not kept up with modern technology. Introducing: Hometown Bazaar! This sophisticated, mobile-responsive web application allows buyers and sellers to take advantage of modern technology. It saves time and effort, maximizes profits while still promoting the small-town person-to-person interaction of personal item sales. Hometown Bazaar offers advanced search features and filtering, communication with the seller, customization, feedback options, and a community event organizational system. All of this is free of charge while providing functional performance, easy navigation and eye-appealing design, as well as ensuring high security of all transactions and personal information.

- Description/Abstract:
- Current claim-check technology relies on a numbered, two-part paper ticket. But, according to the New York Times, anywhere from 5 to 20 percent of patrons who check items, lose their tickets (Bruni, 2018). TagIT will replace these fragile paper tickets and streamline the item check-in process using common handheld devices and wireless access to cloud computing. With TagIT, an attendant will create a unique record for each patron, adding images of the checked items using a smartphone or tablet’s onboard camera. The attendant will select the item image and scan the storage bin Quick Response Code, or QR code, in which the item is stored. When all items have been imaged and added to the record, the patron will receive an E-mail with a Web link to the record. The images, QR codes, and bin identification are now part of the patron’s record and can be viewed and verified using the link. The link will also provide a means to request the return of the checked items. And if a patron forgets to retrieve an item, TagIT will provide the means to contact the patron with retrieval instructions.

- The use of Phishing Audit System has the potential to train and educate organizations and their employees to be more proactive when dealing with phishing emails. Phishing is the leading cause of cyber-attacks around the world and is increasing each year. Phishing comes in the form of an email that is made to look like it’s coming from a trusted source but contains malware or takes you to an illegitimate website to steal personal information. Our solution to reduce the number of attacks is to create the Phishing Audit System. This system creates a customized, scheduled, and automated phishing simulation. This allows you to track the progress of users understanding and interacting with phishing emails. Additionally, this system provides users with the necessary training material to identify the phishing attacks.

- Fortune 500 companies need a simple, single solution to help them track their progress towards their Social Responsibility goals. To make the social responsibility value come to life, companies allow their employees to take paid time off to volunteer. Companies also sponsor community outreach events via employee-led Business Resource Groups (BRGs). Today, most companies don’t have a single solution or single source of truth that tracks where the company’s money or employee volunteer time is going. To solve that problem, our team created Employees Becoming Neighbors. Our product is a “one-stop shop” for companies to track their employees’ paid volunteer time off and give their BRGs a tool to manage their community events. Our product also gives company Executives one place to run reports to see how their company is meeting their goals. We are doing this because we wanted to make a product that meets a real-world need and applies to the private sector.

- Description/Abstract:
- Within the past five years, The University of Cincinnati hasn’t had a consistent Campus Link solution for managing student groups, none of which have had a mobile solution. The current University solution does not reach the expectations of students and organization leaders. Campus Connect provides an active and intuitive user experience with both web and mobile. The project aims on giving the users an all in one solution that allows them to actively see posts and meetings from the clubs or organizations they have joined through the application. Campus Connect will consist of a series of features that allow the user to search and join organizations of their choice. Organizations create and edit posts as well as their own personal organizational pages. Campus Connect allows for an easy communication between students and organizations.

- Description/Abstract:
- Information about data ‒ known as Metadata, has the potential to provide a vast range of knowledge about data or a target in question. Metadata can provide information including the creation date, geolocation, software used to create the file and more ‒ which can be useful for many users in the information security field. We created Metaforge to fill the gap in the information gathering arsenal to provide the user with a clean and efficient program. The application includes a simple GUI that creates a dynamic HTML report with multiple pages that displays raw and filtered metadata and a useful statistics page. Current existing metadata tools are outdated and unmaintained which results in a difficult user experience. The capabilities Metaforge includes are detailed metadata analysis, a practical report, and efficient functionality with the final outcome of a positive user experience.

- Description/Abstract:
- Spam Detection over Encrypted Emails with Intel SGX Emails play a pivotal role in business and everyday communication. There are millions of email messages being sent each day that contain incredibly sensitive information. This sensitive data can be easily parsed by passive attackers on an email server. Leveraging Intel’s SGX we can mitigate this problem by using enclaves. These are private regions of memory that are protected from processes running at higher privilege levels. Decrypting emails using SGX on an Encrypted mail server makes it much more difficult for passive attackers to get any useful data. On top of that this solution takes into account that sender reputation filters are not very effective since it is quite easy for an email address to be compromised. Decrypting emails via Intel SGX improves the general security of Emails on servers where it is running.
