In this paper a novel system for detecting meaningful deviations in a mobile application's network behavior is proposed. The main goal of the proposed system is to protect mobile device users and cellular infrastructure companies from…
The rise of automated scanning tools and AI assisted reconnaissance agents has significantly altered internet background traffic patterns, threatening the baseline assumptions underlying intrusion detection systems (IDS) deployed in…
We describe a method for remotely detecting intentional packet drops on the Internet via side channel inferences. That is, given two arbitrary IP addresses on the Internet that meet some simple requirements, our proposed technique can…
In traffic management, it is a very important issue to shorten the response time by detecting the incidents (accident, vehicle breakdown, an object falling on the road, etc.) and informing the corresponding personnel. In this study, an…
Multivariate time-series anomaly detection, which is critical for identifying unexpected events, has been explored in the field of machine learning for several decades. However, directly applying these methods to data from forceful tool use…
Separating mid-path Internet performance from edge effects remains a fundamental challenge in network measurement. This paper presents a methodology for detecting anomalous topology, routing policies, and congested interconnections using…
Nowadays, many cities are equipped with surveillance systems and traffic control centers to monitor vehicular traffic for road safety and efficiency. The monitoring process is mostly done manually which is inefficient and expensive. In…
In the last decade, the use of fast flux technique has become established as a common practice to organise botnets in Fast Flux Service Networks (FFSNs), which are platforms able to sustain illegal online services with very high…
River water-quality monitoring is increasingly conducted using automated in situ sensors, enabling timelier identification of unexpected values. However, anomalies caused by technical issues confound these data, while the volume and…
This article introduces a novel method for detecting anomalies within log data from control system nodes at the European XFEL accelerator. Effective anomaly detection is crucial for providing operators with a clear understanding of each…
Currently, there are computer vision systems that help us with tasks that would be dull for humans, such as surveillance and vehicle tracking. An important part of this analysis is to identify traffic anomalies. An anomaly tells us that…
Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are stealthy customized attacks by intelligent adversaries. This paper deals with the detection of APTs that infiltrate cyber systems and compromise specifically targeted data and/or infrastructures.…
The majority of Internet traffic is caused by a relatively small number of flows (so-called elephant flows). This phenomenon can be exploited to facilitate traffic engineering: resource-costly individual flow forwarding entries can be…
Intrusion detection has become one of the most critical tasks in a wireless network to prevent service outages that can take long to fix. The sheer variety of anomalous events necessitates adopting cognitive anomaly detection methods…
Mobile network operators store an enormous amount of information like log files that describe various events and users' activities. Analysis of these logs might be used in many critical applications such as detecting cyber-attacks, finding…
XML transactions are used in many information systems to store data and interact with other systems. Abnormal transactions, the result of either an on-going cyber attack or the actions of a benign user, can potentially harm the interacting…
Understanding the dynamics of truck volumes and activities across the skeleton traffic network is pivotal for effective traffic planning, traffic management, sustainability analysis, and policy making. Yet, relying solely on average annual…
NetFlow data is a popular network log format used by many network analysts and researchers. The advantages of using NetFlow over deep packet inspection are that it is easier to collect and process, and it is less privacy intrusive. Many…
BGP is the de-facto Internet routing protocol for exchanging prefix reachability information between Autonomous Systems (AS). It is a dynamic, distributed, path-vector protocol that enables rich expressions of network policies (typically…
Trillions of network packets are sent over the Internet to destinations which do not exist. This 'darknet' traffic captures the activity of botnets and other malicious campaigns aiming to discover and compromise devices around the world. In…
