There is a growing interest in discovery of internet topology at the interface level. A new generation of highly distributed measurement systems is currently being deployed. Unfortunately, the research community has not examined the problem…

Operational Technology (OT) networks of industrial control systems (ICS) are increasingly connected to the public Internet, which has prompted ICSes to implement strong security measures (e.g., authentication and encryption) to protect…

IP networks became the most dominant type of information networks nowadays. It provides a number of services and makes it easy for users to be connected. IP networks provide an efficient way with a large number of services compared to other…

Scalable and secure data management is important in Internet of Things (IoT) applications such as smart water meters, where traditional blockchain storage can be restrictive due to high data volumes. This paper investigates a hybrid…

Information Centric Networking (ICN) advocates the philosophy of accessing the content independent of its location. Owing to this location independence in ICN, the routers en-route can be enabled to cache the content to serve the future…

Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming an increasingly attractive target for cybercriminals. We observe that many attacks to IoTs are launched in a collusive way, such as brute-force hacking usernames and passwords, to target at a particular…

Information security risk assessment methods have served us well over the past two decades. They have provided a tool for organizations and governments to use in protecting themselves against pertinent risks. As the complexity,…

Cyber-physical systems and the Internet of things (IoT) is becoming an integral part of the digital society. The use of IoT services improves human life in many ways. Protection against cyber threats is an important aspect of the…

The role of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in relation to issues of forced migration has come to the attention of the Information Systems (IS) literature. In this paper we review the interdisciplinary research on the…

Synchronous consensus protocols offer a significant advantage over their asynchronous and partially synchronous counterparts by providing higher fault tolerance -- an essential benefit in distributed systems, like blockchains, where…

The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) storage built on Kademlia, a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) structure commonly used in P2P systems and known for its proved scalability. However, DHTs susceptible to…

Formal specifications have numerous benefits for both designers and users of network protocols. They provide clear, unambiguous representations, which are useful as documentation and for testing. They can help reveal disagreements about…

Cyber-physical systems are at the intersection of digital technology and engineering domains, rendering them high-value targets of sophisticated and well-funded cybersecurity threat actors. Prominent cybersecurity attacks on CPS have…

Cyber threats are increasing not only in their volume but also in their sophistication and difficulty to detect. Attacks have become a national/global threat as they have targeted private and public, as well as government sectors over the…

This paper proposes two novel optimized BitTorrent-like protocols for interactive multimedia streaming: the Simple Interactive Streaming Protocol (SISP) and the Exclusive Interactive Streaming Protocol (EISP). The former chiefly seeks a…

The lack of security measures among the Internet of Things (IoT) devices and their persistent online connection gives adversaries a prime opportunity to target them or even abuse them as intermediary targets in larger attacks such as…

Computer systems are facing biggest threat in the form of malicious data which causing denial of service, information theft, financial and credibility loss etc. No defense technique has been proved successful in handling these threats.…

Internet of Things (IoT) is a whole new ecosystem comprised of heterogeneous connected devices -i.e. computers, laptops, smart-phones and tablets as well as embedded devices and sensors-that communicate to deliver capabilities making our…

The structure of IP addresses observed in Internet traffic plays a critical role for a wide range of networking problems of current interest. For example, modern network telemetry systems that take advantage of existing data plane…

As the Internet of Things (IoT) rolls out today to devices whose lifetime may well exceed a decade, conservative threat models should consider attackers with access to quantum computing power. The SUIT standard (specified by the IETF)…
