This bookconstitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium onCyber Security, CSS 2015, held in Coeur d'Alene, ID, USA, in April 2015.The 9revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 20papers. The papers reflect four areas of scholarly work: permissions and trustevaluation, implementation and management; cloud and device security andprivacy; social implications of networked and mobile applications; system andprocess assessments for improved cybersecurity.

This book serves as a vital foundation for regional collaboration, urging stakeholders to adopt innovative, interdisciplinary approaches. The Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region, renowned for its ecological diversity and essential freshwater resources, faces pressing sustainability challenges that require comprehensive solutions. This assessment report unifies decades of research on the HKH, providing critical insights and practical strategies for sustainable development in the context of rapid urbanization and climate change. Through advanced analysis utilizing long-term time series models and satellite remote sensing data, the report addresses how urbanization and environmental shifts affect regional hydrology, how agricultural practices contribute to food security, and the extensive impacts of human activities on fragile ecosystems. In a bid to enhance knowledge-sharing, the report introduces a robust database platform, enabling researchers, policymakers, and local communities to access and apply critical data. This platform fosters a collective effort to respond effectively to environmental degradation and climate threats, while also creating a reference framework for other regions facing similar issues. Targeted toward policymakers, researchers, and sustainability practitioners, this report aims to drive informed decision-making, encourage sustainable practices, and protect the resilience of the HKH for future generations.
