Payment channel network (PCN) is a layer-two scaling solution that enables fast off-chain transactions but does not involve on-chain transaction settlement. PCNs raise new privacy issues including balance secrecy, relationship anonymity and…

INTRODUCTION: The proliferation of the amalgamation of IoT and edge computing has increased the demand for decentralised trust and security mechanisms capable of operating across heterogeneous and resource-limited devices. Approaches such…

With the rapid development of cloud computing, edge computing, and smart devices, computing power resources indicate a trend of ubiquitous deployment. The traditional network architecture cannot efficiently leverage these distributed…

Context: The increase in Internet of Things (IoT) devices gives rise to an increase in deceptive manipulations by malicious actors. These actors should be prevented from targeting the IoT networks. Cybersecurity threats have evolved and…

Mobile devices are often presented with multiple connectivity options usually making a selection either randomly or based on load/wireless conditions metrics, as is the case of current offloading schemes. In this paper we claim that…

Information-Centric Networking (ICN) introduces a paradigm shift from a host centric communication model for Future Internet architectures. It supports the retrieval of a particular content regardless of the physical location of the…

IBN is an emerging network management paradigm that allows automated closed-loop control and management of network devices and services. Closed-loop control requires security primitives to avoid intrusive human impact on network policies,…

Network Service Chaining (NSC) is a service deployment concept that promises increased flexibility and cost efficiency for future carrier networks. NSC has received considerable attention in the standardization and research communities…

Networks play a central role in cyber-security: networks deliver security attacks, suffer from them, defend against them, and sometimes even cause them. This article is a concise tutorial on the large subject of networks and security,…

The rapid evolution of the Internet, particularly the emergence of Web3, has transformed the ways people interact and share data. Web3, although still not well defined, is thought to be a return to the decentralization of corporations'…

Industrial Control Networks (ICN) such as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are widely used in industries for monitoring and controlling physical processes. These industries include power generation and supply, gas…

As new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) are integrated into Critical National Infrastructures (CNI), new cybersecurity threats emerge that require specific security solutions. Approaches used for analysis include the…

Efforts have been recently made to construct ontologies for network security. The proposed ontologies are related to specific aspects of network security. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the specific aspects covered by existing…

Traditional communication networks consist of large sets of vendor-specific manually configurable devices which are hardwired with specific control logic or algorithms. The resulting networks comprise distributed control plane architectures…

The cyber-physical convergence, the fast expansion of the Internet at its edge, and tighter interactions between human users and their personal mobile devices push towards a data-centric Internet where the human user becomes more central…

Deep Neural Network (DNN) workloads are quickly moving from datacenters onto edge devices, for latency, privacy, or energy reasons. While datacenter networks can be protected using conventional cybersecurity measures, edge neural networks…

Network security has become an area of significant importance more than ever as highlighted by the eye-opening numbers of data breaches, attacks on critical infrastructure, and malware/ransomware/cryptojacker attacks that are reported…

Cheating is a real problem in the Internet of Things. The fundamental question that needs to be answered is how we can trust the validity of the data being generated in the first place. The problem, however, isn't inherent in whether or not…

In recent years, there has been a significant proliferation of industrial Internet of Things (IoT) applications, with a wide variety of use cases being developed and put into operation. As the industrial IoT landscape expands, the…

In this paper we present the design of Name-based Access Control (NAC) scheme, which supports data confidentiality and access control in Named Data Networking (NDN) architecture by encrypting content at the time of production, and by…
