We address the problem of securing distributed storage systems against eavesdropping and adversarial attacks. An important aspect of these systems is node failures over time, necessitating, thus, a repair mechanism in order to maintain a…
This paper addresses the challenges of optimally placing a finite number of sensors to detect Poisson-distributed targets in a bounded domain. We seek to rigorously account for uncertainty in the target arrival model throughout the problem.…
The performance of control systems with packet loss as a result of an attack over the actuation communication channel is analysed. The operator is assumed to monitor the state of the channel by measuring the average number of packet losses…
This paper addresses the security allocation problem within networked control systems, which consist of multiple interconnected control systems under the influence of two opposing agents: a defender and a malicious adversary. The adversary…
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have become more prominent recently, both in frequency of occurrence, as well as magnitude. Such attacks render key Internet resources unavailable and disrupt its normal operation. It is…
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks pose a significant threat to the stability and reliability of online systems. Effective and early detection of such attacks is pivotal for safeguarding the integrity of networks. In this work, we…
Since it is impossible to predict and identify all the vulnerabilities of a network, and penetration into a system by malicious intruders cannot always be prevented, intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are essential entities for ensuring the…
Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) sensors deployed on the ground are central to observing aerial movements of aircraft. Their unsystematic placement, however, results in over-densification of sensor coverage in some areas…
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks form a serious threat to the security of Internet services. However, despite over a decade of research, and the existence of several proposals to address this problem, there has been little…
Denial of service attacks pose a threat in constant growth. This is mainly due to their tendency to gain in sophistication, ease of implementation, obfuscation and the recent improvements in occultation of fingerprints. On the other hand,…
In this paper, we study networked systems in the presence of Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, namely attacks that prevent transmissions over the communication network. Previous studies have shown that co-located architectures (control unit…
Recent years witnessed a surge in network traffic due to the emergence of new online services, causing periodic saturation and complexity problems. Additionally, the growing number of IoT devices further compounds the problem. Software…
We study how to secure distributed filters for linear time-invariant systems with bounded noise under false-data injection attacks. A malicious attacker is able to arbitrarily manipulate the observations for a time-varying and unknown…
In this paper we introduce an intrusion detection system for Denial of Service (DoS) attacks against Domain Name System (DNS). Our system architecture consists of two most important parts: a statistical preprocessor and a neural network…
In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET), various types of Denial of Service Attacks (DoS) are possible because of the inherent limitations of its routing protocols. Considering the Ad Hoc On Demand Vector (AODV) routing protocol as the base…
In the current world, the Internet is being used almost everywhere. With the rise of IoT technology, which is one of the most used technologies, billions of IoT devices are interconnected over the Internet. However, DoS/DDoS attacks are the…
This research proposes a distributed switching control to secure multi-robot systems in the presence of cyberattacks. Two major types of cyberattack are considered: deception attack and denial of service (DoS) attack, which compromise the…
We propose a novel approach for distributed statistical detection of change-points in high-volume network traffic. We consider more specifically the task of detecting and identifying the targets of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)…
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging paradigm, which evolved in recent years to address the weaknesses in traditional networks. The significant feature of the SDN, which is achieved by disassociating the control plane from the…
A distributed storage system (DSS) needs to be efficiently accessible and repairable. Recently, considerable effort has been made towards the latter, while the former is usually not considered, since a trivial solution exists in the form of…
