Computer networks today typically do not provide any mechanisms to the users to learn, in a reliable manner, which paths have (and have not) been taken by their packets. Rather, it seems inevitable that as soon as a packet leaves the…
In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has led to the emergence of multiple smart applications in different vital sectors including healthcare, education, agriculture, energy management, etc. IoT aims to interconnect…
Tor, an onion-routing anonymity network, has been shown to be vulnerable to Website Fingerprinting (WF), which de-anonymizes web browsing by analyzing the unique characteristics of the encrypted network traffic. Although many defenses have…
Traditional Cyber-physical Systems(CPSs) were not built with cybersecurity in mind. They operated on separate Operational Technology (OT) networks. As these systems now become more integrated with Information Technology (IT) networks based…
Website fingerprinting attack is an extensively studied technique used in a web browser to analyze traffic patterns and thus infer confidential information about users. Several website fingerprinting attacks based on machine learning and…
IPv4 NAT has limited the spread of IoT botnets considerably by default-denying bots' incoming connection requests to in-home devices unless the owner has explicitly allowed them. As the Internet transitions to majority IPv6, however,…
Ransomware has been predominantly a threat to Windows systems. But, Linux systems became interesting for cybercriminals and this trend is expected to continue. This endangers IoT ecosystems, whereas many IoT systems are based on Linux (e.g.…
The Internet of Flying Things (IoFT) plays a vital role in modern applications such as aerial surveillance and smart mobility. However, it remains highly vulnerable to cyberattacks that threaten the confidentiality, integrity, and…
In today's business environment, it is difficult to imagine a workplace without access to the web, yet a variety of email born viruses, spyware, adware, Trojan horses, phishing attacks, directory harvest attacks, DoS attacks, and other…
OAuth is the new de facto standard for delegating authorization in the web. An important limitation of OAuth is the fact that it was designed for authorization and not for authentication. The usage of OAuth for authentication thus leads to…
Free Content Websites (FCWs) are a significant element of the Web, and realizing their use is essential. This study analyzes FCWs worldwide by studying how they correlate with different network sizes, cloud service providers, and countries,…
The absence of robust security protocols renders the VANET (Vehicle ad-hoc Networks) network open to cyber threats by compromising passengers and road safety. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are widely employed to detect network security…
A physical unclonable function (PUF) generates hardware intrinsic volatile secrets by exploiting uncontrollable manufacturing randomness. Although PUFs provide the potential for lightweight and secure authentication for increasing numbers…
Progressive Web App (PWA) installation is critical for integrating web and mobile app functionalities, offering a seamless user experience. However, ensuring the security of the PWA installation lifecycle is essential for maintaining user…
We discuss how to efficiently forward data in vehicular networks. Existing solutions do not make full use of trajectory planning of nearby vehicles, or social attributes. The development of onboard navigation system provides drivers some…
The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things and the emergence of edge computing-based applications has led to a new wave of cyber-attacks, with intensity and complexity that has never been seen before. Historically most research has…
Consumer Internet of Things (IoT) devices are increasingly common, from smart speakers to security cameras, in homes. Along with their benefits come potential privacy and security threats. To limit these threats a number of commercial…
Browser fingerprinting often provides an attractive alternative to third-party cookies for tracking users across the web. In fact, the increasing restrictions on third-party cookies placed by common web browsers and recent regulations like…
Privacy and Fairness both are very important nowadays. For most of the cases in the online service providing system, users have to share their personal information with the organizations. In return, the clients not only demand a high…
