Development of information technology, especially in the field of computer network allows the exchange of information faster and more complex and the data that is exchanged can vary. Security of data on communication in the network is a…
Security and privacy of the Internet Domain Name System (DNS) have been longstanding concerns. Recently, there is a trend to protect DNS traffic using Transport Layer Security (TLS). However, at least two major issues remain: (1) how do…
Network steganography and covert communication channels have been studied extensively in the past. However, prior works offer minimal practical use for their proposed techniques and are limited to specific use cases and network protocols.…
Network traffic is growing at an outpaced speed globally. The modern network infrastructure makes classic network intrusion detection methods inefficient to classify an inflow of vast network traffic. This paper aims to present a modern…
In the realm of IoT/CPS systems connected over mobile networks, traditional intrusion detection methods analyze network traffic across multiple devices using anomaly detection techniques to flag potential security threats. However, these…
Internet of Things (IoT) has brought along immense benefits to our daily lives encompassing a diverse range of application domains that we regularly interact with, ranging from healthcare automation to transport and smart environments.…
In this paper, we consider recommender systems with side information in the form of graphs. Existing collaborative filtering algorithms mainly utilize only immediate neighborhood information and have a hard time taking advantage of deeper…
The increasing popularity of web-based applications has led to several critical services being provided over the Internet. This has made it imperative to monitor the network traffic so as to prevent malicious attackers from depleting the…
Mobile applications continuously generate DNS queries that can reveal sensitive user behavioral patterns even when communications are encrypted. This paper presents a privacy enhancement framework based on query forgery to protect users…
Domain name system (DNS) is a crucial part of the Internet, yet has been widely exploited by cyber attackers. Apart from making static methods like blacklists or sinkholes infeasible, some weasel attackers can even bypass detection systems…
In recent years, researchers have been paying increasing attention to the threats brought by deep learning models to data security and privacy, especially in the field of domain adaptation. Existing unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA)…
Today, Internet offers many critical applications. So, it becomes very crucial for Internet service providers to ensure traceability of operations and to secure data exchange. Since all these communications are based on the use of the…
Identifying threats in a network traffic flow which is encrypted is uniquely challenging. On one hand it is extremely difficult to simply decrypt the traffic due to modern encryption algorithms. On the other hand, passing such an encrypted…
Network-connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications is a common solution to achieve high-rate image transmission. The broadcast nature of these wireless networks makes this communication vulnerable to eavesdropping. This paper…
Modern malware families often rely on domain-generation algorithms (DGAs) to determine rendezvous points to their command-and-control server. Traditional defence strategies (such as blacklisting domains or IP addresses) are inadequate…
Domain name system communication may provide sensitive information on users' Internet activity. DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS are proposals aiming at increasing the privacy of Internet end users. In this paper we present an overview of…
Serious crime modelling typically needs to be undertaken securely behind a firewall where police knowledge and capabilities can remain undisclosed. Data informing an ongoing incident is often sparse, with a large proportion of relevant data…
Steganography is collection of methods to hide secret information ("payload") within non-secret information "container"). Its counterpart, Steganalysis, is the practice of determining if a message contains a hidden payload, and recovering…
Multi-layer networks are networks in which several protocols may coexist at different layers. The Pseudo-Wire architecture provides encapsulation and de-capsulation functions of protocols over Packet-Switched Networks. In a multi-domain…
With the explosive growth of internet and the fast communication techniques in recent years the security and the confidentiality of the sensitive data has become of prime and supreme importance and concern. To protect this data from…
