Authors - Gunjan Tewari, Divyanshi Verma, Simran Negi, Richa Jain Abstract - Cloud computing has completely revolutionized the way of data storage and management in a scalable environment with cost efficiency and scalability. However, the shift from physical to cloud infrastructure raises significant concerns related to security. The major security issues in cloud storage are: data breaches, unauthorized access, hacking of data, and insider threats, various types of cyber-attacks, etc. Many advancements have been made in cloud security but despite that several challenges still exist. Many security frameworks rely on third-party providers creating potential risks of data exposure. This paper addresses these challenges by proposing an approach for secure file storage in the cloud having multiple layers of security. The key derivation for encryption is done uniquely and then AES-256 is used for encryption and decryption. At the time of decryption, OTP authentication is done using RSA signing which provides multi-factor authentication. The method can also be used to encrypt all multimedia data. To provide security, the file password and OTP information are not stored in any database. The proposed work provides a very secure data storage solution that protects the data from any kind of brute-force attacks and other cryptanalysis attacks.

Authors - Sheela Chinchmalatpure, Atharva Bondarde, Atharva Joshi, Archit Bagad, Samyak Dawle, Rajeshwar Chintawar Abstract - Proper waste management is essential for public health and urban sanitation. Conventional garbage collection systems tend to be absent of verification checks to confirm the emptying of waste bins and instead depend on manual records. To improve monitoring of waste collection, this research suggests a smart, technology-based solution that combines Near Field Communication (NFC) with computer vision through a TensorFlow Lite-based YOLO model. The system includes a mobile app that scans NFC tags on trash bins, logging the time and staff member who serviced the bin. The app also includes a lightweight YOLO model in TensorFlow Lite format to check if a bin is full or not using real-time image processing. NFC scanning is only allowed after successful model verification to avoid fraudulent reporting and ensure accountability of sanitation workers. This two-in-one system serves as both a real-time waste collection monitoring system and an automated worker attendance tracking system. Evaluated on a bin image dataset, the solution showed encouraging accuracy in empty and full bin detection. Through the use of AI and IoT-based tracking, this system promotes accountability, transparency, and effectiveness in waste collection, and makes it a scalable and affordable model for smart cities.

Authors - Vijayalakshmi B, Jayasheela C S Abstract - Postmenopausal women (PW) are at a significantly increased risk of fractures, largely due to estrogen deficiency leading to osteoporosis and altered bone quality. Fracture risk assessment is critical for early intervention and prevention strategies. This review explores advancements in fracture risk evaluation, highlighting experimental methodologies, clinical applications and emerging technologies. Key advanced imaging approaches include the use of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) for bone mineral density (BMD) measurement, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) for micro-architectural assessment and biochemical markers like C-terminal telopeptide (CTX) and procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP) for monitoring bone mass density. Fracture risk assessment (FRA) tools such as FRAX and the Garvan calculator provide practical frameworks for estimating fracture probability by integrating clinical risk factors and BMD data. However, challenges remain. including limited access to advanced imaging, variability in biochemical marker and under representation of diverse populations in validation studies. Future directions emphasize integrating artificial intelligence, expanding population specific validations and combining imaging with dynamic bone mass density data. This comprehensive review emphasizes the significance of a multidisciplinary approach in FRA, aiming to enhance precision, accessibility and clinical outcomes in postmenopausal women.
