Current signature-based antivirus solutions have three limitations such as the large volume of signature database, privacy preservation, and computation overheads of signature matching. In this paper, we propose LigeroAV, a light-weight, performance-enhanced antivirus, suitable for pervasive environments such as mobile phones. LigeroAV focuses on detecting MD5 signatures which are more than 90% of signatures. LigeroAV offloads matching computation in the cloud server with up-to-dated signature database while preserving privacy level using the Bloom filter.

Many P2P lookup services based on distributed hash tables (DHT) have appeared recently. These schemes are built upon overlay networks and ignore distance to the target resources. As a result, P2P lookups often suffer from unnecessarily long routes in the underlay network, which we call overlay dilation. This paper proposes a new scheme for resource routing, called hybrid hierarchical overlay routing, dubbed Hyho. We introduce distance-weighted Bloom filters (dwBFs) as a concise representation of routing information for scattered resources in overlay networks. To further reduce the size of Bloom filters, so that they are linear in the number of distinct resources, Hyho splits overlay networks in accordance with DHT, where each subnetwork has a smaller set of resources and spans the entire network thinly. As a result, Hyho constructs a hierarchical overlay network and routes requests accordingly. Simulation results show that Hyho can reduce overlay dilation to one half that yielded by the Chord lookup service.
