Hardware-Aware Co-Design Framework for Efficient TinyML Deployment on Ultra-Low Power Edge Devices
Content Security Policy (CSP) is widely considered the canonical defense against Cross-Site Scripting in modern SPAs, yet real-world deployments routinely rely on unsafe CSP directives that hollow out its protections. This paper audits fifty production SPAs, catalogues the most common policy weaknesses, and proposes a layered hardening framework combining Trusted Types, Subresource Integrity, and runtime taint-tracking that reduces the exploitable XSS surface by 78% without architectural changes.

Offline-First TinyML–Federated Learning Framework for Privacy-Preserving and Energy-Efficient Smart Healthcare Systems
This chapter presents an offline-first TinyML and federated learning framework for smart healthcare environments. The system enables privacy-preserving on-device intelligence for wearable devices by combining decentralized model training, local inference, quantization, and pruning techniques. The proposed architecture minimizes latency, reduces energy consumption, preserves patient privacy, and maintains reliable operation under intermittent network connectivity.

A Systematic Review of Blockchain-Based Security Architectures for Trusted Cloud Data Sharing: Threat Models and Open Challenges
This systematic review examines blockchain-enabled secure cloud data sharing frameworks published between 2023 and 2025. The study analyzes decentralized architectures, smart contract-based access control mechanisms, decentralized identity management, and privacy-preserving encryption techniques. It further evaluates major threat models including insider threats, Sybil attacks, and smart contract vulnerabilities while identifying open challenges related to scalability, interoperability, and integration with emerging technologies such as federated learning and edge computing.
