Internet of things (IoT) connects all items to the Internet through information-sensing devices to exchange information for intelligent identification and management. Sybil attack is a famous and crippling attack in IoT. Most of the…
Security can be seen as an optimisation objective in NoC resource management, and as such poses trade-offs against other objectives such as real-time schedulability. In this paper, we show how to increase NoC resilience against a concrete…
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the network of the future. As it gradually gains ground by transforming our lives and environments into a Smart World, it will definitely call for attention from selfish minded Attackers. The first section…
Even though recent years have seen many attacks exposing severe vulnerabilities in Federated Learning (FL), a holistic understanding of what enables these attacks and how they can be mitigated effectively is still lacking. In this work, we…
In sensor networks, nodes cooperatively work to collect data and forward it to the final destination. Many protocols have been proposed in the literature to provide routing and secure routing for ad hoc and sensor networks, but these…
Vector databases serve as the retrieval backbone of modern AI applications, yet their security remains largely unexplored. We propose the Black-Hole Attack, a poisoning attack that injects a small number of malicious vectors near the…
We consider a multipoint-to-point network in which sensors periodically send measurements to a gateway. The system uses Long Range (LoRa) communications in a frequency band with duty-cycle limits. Our aim is to enhance the reliability of…
This paper presents a secure safety filter design for nonlinear systems under sensor spoofing attacks. Existing approaches primarily focus on linear systems which limits their applications in real-world scenarios. In this work, we extend…
