Security of modern Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) is under severe scrutiny as the deployment of these models become widespread in many intelligence-based applications. Most recently, DNNs are attacked through Trojan which can effectively…

Modern networked systems are constantly under threat from systemic attacks. There has been a massive upsurge in the number of devices connected to a network as well as the associated traffic volume. This has intensified the need to better…

In this paper, we propose an active attacking strategy on a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) network, where the pilot sequences are obtained using the user load-achieving pilot sequence design. The user load-achieving design…

An increasing number of systems have been proposed or deployed to the transit core of the Internet with the goal of observing and manipulating traffic in flight, systems we term Traffic Manipulating Boxes. Examples of these include: decoy…

In this paper, we study the Cost-aware Target Viral Marketing (CTVM) problem, a generalization of Influence Maximization (IM). CTVM asks for the most cost-effective users to influence the most relevant users. In contrast to the vast…

A substantial amount of work has recently gone into localizing BitTorrent traffic within an ISP in order to avoid excessive and often times unnecessary transit costs. Several architectures and systems have been proposed and the initial…

Social platforms such as Twitter are under siege from a multitude of fraudulent users. In response, social bot detection tasks have been developed to identify such fake users. Due to the structure of social networks, the majority of methods…

In mobile crowd sensing networks data forwarding through opportunistic contacts between participants. Data is replicated to encountered participants. For optimizing data delivery ratio and reducing redundant data a lot of data forwarding…

The Ethereum blockchain network is a decentralized platform enabling smart contract execution and transactions of Ether (ETH) [1], its designated cryptocurrency. Ethereum is the second most popular cryptocurrency with a market cap of more…

Virtually every connection to an Internet service is preceded by a DNS lookup which is performed without any traffic-level protection, thus enabling manipulation, redirection, surveillance, and censorship. To address these issues, large…

Targeted attacks against network infrastructure are notoriously difficult to guard against. In the case of communication networks, such attacks can leave users vulnerable to censorship and surveillance, even when cryptography is used. Much…

The IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) was recently introduced as the new routing standard for the Internet of Things. Although RPL defines basic security modes, it remains vulnerable to topological attacks which…

RPL is the emerging routing standard for low power and lossy networks (LLNs). LLN is a key component of the Internet of Things (IoT), hence its security is imperative for the age of IoT. In this work, we present the DAO induction attack, a…

Tor is a communications infrastructure widely used for unfettered and anonymous access to Internet websites. Tor is also used to access sites on the .onion virtual domain. The focus of .onion use and discussion has traditionally been on the…

Payment channel networks (PCN) enable scalable blockchain transactions without fundamentally changing the underlying distributed ledger algorithm. However, routing a payment via multiple channels in a PCN requires locking collateral for…

We present a new type of clogging DoS attacks, with the highest amplification factors achieved by off-path attackers, using only puppets, i.e., sandboxed malware on victim machines. Specifically, we present off-path variants of the Opt-ack,…

In recent years, many researchers have focused on wireless sensor networks and their applications. To obtain scalability potential in these networks most of the nodes are categorized as distinct groups named cluster and the node which is…

The Internet is a critical resource in the day-to-day life of billions of users. To support the growing number of users and their increasing demands, operators have to continuously scale their network footprint -- e.g., by joining Internet…

Covert channels are communication channels used by attackers to transmit information from a compromised system when the access control policy of the system does not allow doing so. Previous work has shown that CPU frequency scaling can be…

The detection of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks remains a challenge for the cloud environment, affecting a massive number of services and applications hosted by such virtualized infrastructures. Typically, in the literature, the detection…
