Distributed denial of service(DDos) attack is ongoing dangerous threat to the Internet. Commonly, DDos attacks are carried out at the network layer, e.g. SYN flooding, ICMP flooding and UDP flooding, which are called Distributed denial of…

This paper addresses active re-identification attacks in the context of privacy-preserving social graph publication. Active attacks are those where the adversary can leverage fake accounts, a.k.a. sybil nodes, to enforce structural patterns…

With the development of incipient technologies, user devices becoming more exposed and ill-used by foes. In upcoming decades, traditional security measures will not be sufficient enough to handle this huge threat towards distributed…

Many real-world multilayer systems such as critical infrastructure are interdependent and embedded in space with links of a characteristic length. They are also vulnerable to localized attacks or failures, such as terrorist attacks or…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) is a common type of Cybercrime. It can strongly damage a company reputation and increase its costs. Attackers improve continuously their strategies. They doubled the amount of unleashed communication…

Privacy-preserving federated learning enables a population of distributed clients to jointly learn a shared model while keeping client training data private, even from an untrusted server. Prior works do not provide efficient solutions that…

In the past, online social networks (OSN) like Facebook and Twitter became powerful instruments for communication and networking. Unfortunately, they have also become a welcome target for socialbot attacks. Therefore, a deep understanding…

We study the vulnerability of dominating sets against random and targeted node removals in complex networks. While small, cost-efficient dominating sets play a significant role in controllability and observability of these networks, a fixed…

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of large number of low-cost, resource-constrained sensor nodes. The constraints of the wireless sensor node is their characteristics which include low memory, low computation power, they are deployed…

The widespread adoption of blockchain technology has amplified the spectrum of potential threats to its integrity and security. The ongoing quest to exploit vulnerabilities emphasizes how critical it is to expand on current research…

Blockchain technology is widely used in various fields due to its ability to provide decentralization and trustless security. This is a fundamental understanding held by many advocates, but it is misunderstood, leading participants to fail…

The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) storage built on Kademlia, a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) structure commonly used in P2P systems and known for its proved scalability. However, DHTs susceptible to…

Software-Defined Networks have seen an increasing in their deployment because they offer better network manageability compared to traditional networks. Despite their immense success and popularity, various security issues in SDN remain open…

Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have emerged as a popular means of causing collection particular overhaul disruptions, often for total periods of instance. The relative ease and low costs of…

Distributed Reflective Denial of Service (DRDoS) attacks are an immanent threat to Internet services. The potential scale of such attacks became apparent in March 2018 when a memcached-based attack peaked at 1.7 Tbps. Novel services built…

Today, internet and web services have become an inseparable part of our lives. Hence, ensuring continuous availability of service has become imperative to the success of any organization. But these services are often hampered by constant…

With the growing share of renewable energy sources, the uncertainty in power supply is increasing. In addition to the inherent fluctuations in the renewables, this is due to the threat of deliberate malicious attacks, which may become more…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks persist as significant threats to online services and infrastructure, evolving rapidly in sophistication and eluding traditional detection mechanisms. This evolution demands a comprehensive…

Social engineering through social media channels targeting organizational employees is emerging as one of the most challenging information security threats. Social engineering defies traditional security efforts due to the method of attack…

In wireless ad hoc networks, the absence of any control on packets forwarding, make these networks vulnerable by various deny of service attacks (DoS). A node, in wireless ad hoc network, counts always on intermediate nodes to send these…
