...originally designed for openness and scalability. However there were a number of issues that evolved with the evolution of the internet. For example, the Internet Protocol (IP) was designed to support ease of attachment of hosts to networks, and provides little support for verifying the contents of IP packet header fields. This makes it possible to fake the source address of packets, and hence difficult to identify the source of traffic. Moreover, there is no support in the IP layer to check if a source is authorized to access a service. Packets are delivered to their destination, and the server at the destination must decide whether to accept and service these packets. While defenses such as firewalls were added to protect the servers from the attacks and threats posed, a key challenge for these defenses was to discriminate legitimate requests for service from malicious access attempts. If it is easier for sources to generate service requests than it is for a server to check the validity of those requests, then it is difficult to protect the server from unauthorized and illegitimate requests that waste the resources of the server. This creates the opportunity for a class of attack known as a denial of service attack [1]. 1.2 DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACKS A denial of service (DoS) attack is an attempt to make a computer resource such as network bandwidth, CPU time, etc., unavailable to the legitimate users. It disrupts services by limiting the access to the machine or the service...

...SECURITY AND COMMUNICATION NETWORKS Security Comm. Networks (2011) Published online in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com). DOI: 10.1002/sec.299 SPECIAL ISSUE PAPER Attack Countermeasure Trees (ACT): towards unifying the constructs of attack and defense trees Arpan Roy* , Dong Seong Kim and Kishor S. Trivedi Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Attack tree (AT) is one of the widely used non-state-space models for security analysis. The basic formalism of AT does not take into account defense mechanisms. Defense trees (DTs) have been developed to investigate the effect of defense mechanisms using measures such as attack cost, security investment cost, return on attack (ROA), and return on investment (ROI). DT, however, places defense mechanisms only at the leaf nodes and the corresponding ROI/ROA analysis does not incorporate the probabilities of attack. In attack response tree (ART), attack and response are both captured but ART suffers from the problem of state-space explosion, since solution of ART is obtained by means of a state-space model. In this paper, we present a novel attack tree paradigm called attack countermeasure tree (ACT) which avoids the generation and solution of a state-space model and takes into account attacks as well as countermeasures (in the form of detection and mitigation events). In ACT, detection and mitigation are allowed not just at the leaf node but also...

Here, in case of a server in use, a server is used as a honeypot, that portrays the same functionalities of the actual main server. The attacker believes this server to be the actual server and tries attacking the server. Any such unusual behaviour is recognised and the attacker is blocked from accessing the server. Thus, the security of the network and the systems involved in it, are significantly enhanced with the aid of honeypots.

Links to Learning 450 452 454 Introduction Personality Ted Haggard founded New Life Church in the basement of his house 25 years ago and became a prominent author and national evangelical Christian leader with a congregation of 14,000 worshippers in the largest church in Colorado. He is married with five children and has boyish dimples and a warm smile. In 2006, at the peak of his career, a male prostitute accused Haggard of having a three-year sexual affair with him and of using drugs. is accusation was alarming not only because Haggard was a married pastor, but also because he publicly supported a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. When the accusations were first broadcast on the news, Haggard confessed to church officials, saying, “Ninety-eight percent of what you know of me was the real me. Two percent of me would rise up, and I couldn’t overcome At the height of his career, it” (Haggard, 2006a). Then, in Ted Haggard, well-known pastor, a television news interview the confessed...

...Walter B. Peppersack ASCI 611 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Professor: Bill Teeple 5 December 2014 Abstract This research is in the Oculus system; a roll-on/roll-off Command and Control unit that attaches to a standard military 463L pallet design that is accommodated by the C-130 Hercules. There are two modules that are mounted to a pallet system that roll on and off just like any other cargo load. The design requirements for this payload are that it will be able to be loaded on any model of C-130 without permanent modifications to any of the airframes. The system safety aspect of Oculus and the way it is designed is well defined without specific hazards outside the parameters of normal operations with any other payload, other than the lift arm mechanism for the sensor pod attached to the aft door, and the operational parameters while it is in use. It is because of the design requirements for not modifying the airframe that has created a safety issue with the way the sensor pod is set in operation. Oculus Sensor Platform System The C-130 Hercules transport aircraft has been around a long time. It has been a proven airframe, has been the work horse for the U.S. military services through the decades, has seen many conflicts, and has provided air and ground support for numerous missions worldwide. With its longevity it has seen numerous problems, has had many up-grades and modifications that each have their own safety issues. The ground support systems themselves...

...model (SaaS), Infrastructure-as-a-Service model (IaaS). IaaS is a third party service model which makes use of hardware, software, servers, storage and other infrastructure modules on behalf of the users on the network. IaaS provides the connected users with a web-based service to create, obliviate and administer storage and systems. Security remains a big issue of concern especially because the other service models run on top of the infrastructure layer. PaaS provides hardware and software equipments required for the development of applications to it’s users over the worldwide web. PaaS provides access to Application Program Interfaces( APIs) and other equipments necessary or developing applications without having to install the developing environment. SaaS gives the connected users access to software/ services available on the cloud. SaaS requires the Web Browser to to access the applications hosted by the cloud. Although this concept provides ease in terms of cost- cutting and low management requirement of systems, the data remains vulnerable to unauthorized interference and misuse. This poses a threat to data security which becomes a great concern on multiple levels and dimensions. This paper aims at highlighting each and every threat to data security in general and the possible defense mechanisms/ solutions employed against the same.

...A Secure Intrusion detection system against DDOS attack in Wireless Mobile Ad-hoc Network Abstract: Wireless Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is an emerging technology and have great strength to be applied in critical situations like battlefields and commercial applications such as building, traffic surveillance, MANET is infrastructure less, with no any centralized controller exist and also each node contain routing capability, Each device in a MANET is independently free to move in any direction, and will therefore change its connections to other devices frequently. So one of the major challenges wireless mobile ad-hoc networks face today is security, because no central controller exists. MANETs are a kind of wireless ad hoc networks that usually has a routable networking environment on top of a link layer ad hoc network. Ad hoc also contains wireless sensor network so the problems is facing b y sensor network is also faced by MANET. While developing the sensor nodes in unattended environment increases the chances of various attacks. There are many security attacks in MANET and DDoS (Distributed denial of service) is one of them. Our main aim is seeing the effect of DDoS in routing load, packet drop rate, end to end delay, i.e. Maximizing due to attack on network. And with these parameters and many more also we build secure IDS to...
