Quantum key distribution (QKD) enables two authenticated parties to share secret keys with the ability to detect any attempts to eavesdrop the keys theoretically. Currently, QKD systems can be categorized by its source of uncertainty in nature; single photon or coherent light. As coherent light is harnessed, the overall cost for composing systems drops in general. However, more elaborate post processing...
Internet of Things (IoT) connect different types of devices to control different things or simply read data from then, such as room temperature, location, pressure and others, in a variety of application domains using the World Wide Web. This is a challenge for technology and Information Security (IS). Therefore, this paper surveys advances in IoT-based with an eye towards security, where discusses...
The Internet is one of the most rapidly developing technologies. New protocols for the Internet are always developing. This article focuses on the way to simplify development process of new protocols and modeling of network devices. In this paper there is presented general solution architecture and main functional blocks are described. The main objective of this work was to create a general-purpose...
This article observes the possibility of protection network resources from malicious attacks using traps that simulate SSH service. There are overviewed main types of attacks, analyzed existing software solutions, its basic working principles and opportunities for further improvement. In addition, there is described author's solution, which can increase the attractiveness of SSH honeypot working under...
In this paper we explore the notion of a secure kiosk, a trusted computing platform built using off-the-shelf components. We demonstrate how kiosks serve as convenient primitives when designing secure computing protocols, as they allow for a very prescribed set of assumptions to be made about a system. We begin by defining the necessary properties of a kiosk, and then explain how each of these properties...
"Proxies" are Internet applications that enable Internet users to connect to (or tunnel through) remote resources using another machine for two distinct purposes. First, they allow users to access remotely all resources in a network (i.e. Virtual Private Network or VPN). Second, they bring some level of anonymity by bouncing traffic around proxies. The latter model may enable Internet users...
Mobile agents, which are used for building distributed systems effectively, are autonomous programs that can travel through a computer network to fulfill their tasks. For practical use of mobile agents, protecting agents and platforms is an extremely important matter. Nevertheless, few security techniques exist for the DASH agent framework, which supports agent mobility. Other agent frameworks such...
Trusted input techniques can profoundly enhance a variety of scenarios like online banking, electronic voting, Virtual Private Networks,, even commands to a server or Industrial Control System. To protect the system from malware of the sender's computer, input needs to be reliably authenticated. Previous research in this field is based on fixed assumptions about trustworthy components, is, thus, too...
Connection setup in software-defined networks (SDN) requires considerable amounts of processing, communication, and memory resources. Attackers can target SDN controllers with simple attacks to cause denial of service. We proposed a defense mechanism based on a proof-of-work protocol. The key characteristics of this protocol, namely its one-way operation, its requirement for freshness in proofs of...
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is considered to be an authentication technology of great potential. Due to the bright future of low-cost RFID tags in practical situations, the authentication towards multiple tags and tag groups has become the research hotspot. However, there are many concerns about the security risks and privacy issues in lightweight RFID authentication scenarios. Many researches...
IoT clusters arise from natural human societal clusters such as a house, an airport, and a highway. IoT clusters are heterogeneous with a need for device to device as well as device to user trust. The IoT devices are likely to be thin computing clients. Due to low cost, an individual IoT device is not built to be fault tolerant through redundancy. Hence the trust protocols cannot take the liveness...
We are discussing a framework for formally modeling and analyzing the security of trusted boot processes. The presented framework is based on actor networks. It considers essential cyber-physical features of the system and how to check the authenticity of the software it is running.
in this work, SDN has been utilized to alleviate and eliminate the problem of ARP poisoning attack. This attack is the underlying infrastructure for many other network attacks, such as, man in the middle, denial of service and session hijacking. In this paper we propose a new algorithm to resolve the problem of ARP spoofing. The algorithm can be applied in two different scenarios. The two scenarios...
The integrity and confidentiality of the multilevel security communication are guaranteed by using the key obtained from key negotiation process. To ensure the safety of this process is very important. The quantum key distribution process is unconditionally secure. This paper uses this process to distribute the authentication keys and the session keys, which are used in IPSec process. Thus, the method...
This case study explores a hypothetic but plausible attack on the Italian electric system. Under particular scenarios of grid weakness, it could lead to a blackout costing the local economy 35 to 46 million euros in damages.
The Eyes of Things (EoT) EU H2020 project envisages a computer vision platform that can be used both standalone and embedded into more complex artifacts, particularly for wearable applications, robotics, home products, surveillance etc. The core hardware will be based on a number of technologies and components that have been designed for maximum performance of the always-demanding vision applications...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) botnets have emerged as a significant threat against network security because of their distributed platform. The decentralized nature of these botnets makes their detection very challenging and the situation gets aggravated if an existing P2P network is exploited for botnet creation (parasite botnets). In this paper, we present a two-tier detection scheme to detect parasite P2P...
In recent years, Botnets have become an important security problem on the Internet. Botnets have been used for many attacks, such as banking information theft, spam, distributed denial-of-service, identity theft and phishing. Then, they have been proposed as a major research topic in the network security. Although there are several surveys on the Botnets, they usually do not include a complete review...
Information technology (IT) plays a vital role in healthcare administration and management. IT facilitates doctors, nurses or physicians to improve the speed and performance of the medical system as a whole. This results in accumulation of healthcare data since various types of software which generate their own data types have been widely used. Since different software were used in different medical...
