Security of wireless sensor network (WSN) is always considered a critical issue and has a number of considerations that separate them from traditional wireless sensor network. First, sensor devices are typically vulnerable to physical…
DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) encrypt DNS to guard user privacy by hiding DNS resolutions from passive adversaries. Yet, past attacks have shown that encrypted DNS is still sensitive to traffic analysis. As a consequence, RFC…
This paper revisits the issue of the performance of DNS resolution services available to Internet users. While several prior studies addressed this important issue, significant developments, namely, the IPv6 finally getting traction and the…
Establishing and sustaining Metaverse service necessitates an unprecedented scale of resources. This paper considers the deployment of Metaverse service in a cloud-edge resource architecture, which can satisfy the escalating demand for…
As Internet users have become more savvy about the potential for their Internet communication to be observed, the use of network traffic encryption technologies (e.g., HTTPS/TLS) is on the rise. However, even when encryption is enabled,…
Availability is a major concern in the design of DNSSEC. To ensure availability, DNSSEC follows Postel's Law [RFC1123]: "Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send." Hence, nameservers should send not just one matching…
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…
Database-driven cognitive radio networks (DB-CRNs) enable dynamic spectrum sharing through geolocation databases but introduce critical security and privacy challenges, including mandatory location disclosure, susceptibility to location…
The Domain Name System (DNS) plays a critical role in the functioning of the Internet. It provides a hierarchical name space for locating resources. Data is typically stored in plain text files, possibly spanning gigabytes. Frequent parsing…
To securely leverage the advantages of Cloud Computing, recently a lot of research has happened in the area of "Secure Query Processing over Encrypted Data". As a concrete use case, many encryption schemes have been proposed for securely…
Enterprise Networks are growing in scale and complexity, with heterogeneous connected assets needing to be secured in different ways. Nevertheless, virtually all connected assets use the Domain Name System (DNS) for address resolution, and…
DNS manipulation is an increasingly common technique used by censors and other network adversaries to prevent users from accessing restricted Internet resources and hijack their connections. Prior work in detecting DNS manipulation relies…
The current paper addresses relevant network security vulnerabilities introduced by network devices within the emerging paradigm of Internet of Things (IoT) as well as the urgent need to mitigate the negative effects of some types of…
The DNS is a key component of the Internet. Originally designed to facilitate the resolution of host names to IP addresses, its scope has continuously expanded over the years, today covering use cases such as load balancing or service…
Data Distribution Service (DDS) is an innovative approach towards communication in ICS/IoT infrastructure and robotics. Being based on the cross-platform and cross-language API to be applicable in any computerised device, it offers the…
Nowadays, malware increasingly uses DNS-based covert channels in order to evade detection and maintain stealthy communication with its command-and-control servers. While prior work has focused on detecting such activity, identifying…
When sharing sensitive relational databases with other parties, a database owner aims to (i) have privacy guarantees for the database entries, (ii) have liability guarantees (via fingerprinting) in case of unauthorized sharing of its…
Location-Based Services (LBSs) provide valuable services, with convenient features for mobile users. However, the location and other information disclosed through each query to the LBS erodes user privacy. This is a concern especially…
DNS is one of the cornerstones of the Internet. Nowadays, a substantial fraction of DNS queries are handled by public resolvers (e.g., Google Public DNS and Cisco's OpenDNS) rather than ISP nameservers. This behavior makes it difficult for…
Users may already have some perception of provided security based on experience with earlier generations. To maintain the stability and coherent integration of 5G services, it is imperative that security and privacy features prevalent in…
