The phrase "online harms" has emerged in recent years out of a growing political willingness to address the ethical and social issues associated with the use of the Internet and digital technology at large. The broad landscape that…
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…
Software-driven cloud networking is a new paradigm in orchestrating physical resources (CPU, network bandwidth, energy, storage) allocated to network functions, services, and applications, which is commonly modeled as a cross-layer network.…
Physical infrastructure systems supply crucial resources to residential, commercial, and industrial activities. These infrastructure systems generally consist of multiple types of infrastructure assets that are interdependent. In the event…
Considering real physical (MAC/PHY) traces inside network simulations is a complex task that might lead to complex yet approximated models. However, realistic cross-layer analysis with the upper layer and in particular the transport layer…
Complex networks often have a modular structure, where a number of tightly- connected groups of nodes (modules) have relatively few interconnections. Modularity had been shown to have an important effect on the evolution and stability of…
Building resilience into today's complex infrastructures is critical to the daily functioning of society and its ability to withstand and recover from natural disasters, epidemics, and cyber-threats. This study proposes quantitative…
Not a day goes by without news about a cyber attack. Fear spreads out and lots of wrong ideas circulate. This survey aims at showing how all these uncertainties about cyber can be transformed into manageable risk. After reviewing the main…
Risks threatening modern societies form an intricately interconnected network that often underlies crisis situations. Yet, little is known about how risk materializations in distinct domains influence each other. Here we present an approach…
The ability to analyze network threats is very important in security research. Traditional approaches, involving sandboxing technology are limited to simulating a single host, missing local network attacks. This issue is addressed by…
Kubernetes has emerged as an essential platform for deploying containerised applications across cloud and edge infrastructures. As Kubernetes gains increasing adoption for mission-critical microservices, evaluating system resilience under…
In the last few years, the Internet throughput, usage and reliability have increased almost exponentially. The introduction of broadband wireless mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and cellular networks together with increased computational…
Ensuring robustness and resilience in intermodal transportation systems is essential for the continuity and reliability of global logistics. These systems are vulnerable to various disruptions, including natural disasters and technical…
Cyber incidents can have a wide range of cause from a simple connection loss to an insistent attack. Once a potential cyber security incidents and system failures have been identified, deciding how to proceed is often complex. Especially,…
Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) constitute the backbone of critical infrastructures such as power grids or water distribution networks. Operating failures in these systems can cause serious risks for society. To avoid or minimize downtime,…
Resilience is a feature that is gaining more and more attention in computer science and computer engineering. However, the definition of resilience for the cyber landscape, especially embedded systems, is not yet clear. This paper discusses…
In this paper, an agent-based modeling framework to evaluate the seismic resilience of an integrated system comprising the community and its civil infrastructure systems is proposed. Specifically, an agent-based model of the recovery…
Resilience assessment is a critical requirement of a power grid to maintain high availability, security, and quality of service. Most grid research work that is currently pursued does not have the capability to have hardware testbeds.…
Cyber security and resilience are major challenges in our modern economies; this is why they are top priorities on the agenda of governments, security and defense forces, management of companies and organizations. Hence, the need of a deep…
The increasing frequency and sophistication of cybersecurity incidents pose significant challenges to organisations, highlighting the critical need for robust incident response capabilities. This paper explores a possible utilisation of IR…
