Abstract:

This dissertation concerns investigations on two of the most important problems in establishing communication security in computer networks: (1) developing a model which precisely describes the mechanism that enforces the security policy and requirements for a secure network, and (2) designing a key management scheme for establishing a secure session for end-to-end encryption between a pair of communicants. The security mechanism attempts to ensure secure flow of information between entities assigned to different security classes in different computer systems attached to a computer communicat

Abstract:

Slow and suspicious activities on modern computer networks are increasingly hard to detect. An attacker may take days, weeks or months to complete an attack life cycle. A particular challenge is to monitor for stealthy attempts deliberately designed to stay beneath detection thresholds. This doctoral research presents a theoretical framework for effective monitoring of such activities. The main contribution of this work is a scalable monitoring scheme proposed in a Bayesian framework, which allows for detection of multiple attackers by setting a threshold using the Grubbs’ test.

Abstract:

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are generating much interest both in academia and the telecommunication industries. The principal attractions of MANETs are related to the ease with which they can be deployed due to their infrastructure-less and decentralized nature. For example, unlike other wireless networks, MANETs do not require centralized infrastructures such as base stations, and they are arguably more robust due to their avoidance of single point of failures. Interestingly, the attributes that make MANETs attractive as a network paradigm are the same phenomena that compound the challeng

They are forced to embrace information security and make it part of business strategies. The new support from the board of directors gives information security weight and the voice from the top as well as the fi

Abstract:

The Internet has become important since information is now stored in digital form and is transported both within and between organisations in large amounts through computer networks. Nevertheless, there are those individuals or groups of people who utilise the Internet to harm other businesses because they can remain relatively anonymous. To prosecute such criminals, forensic practitioners have to follow a well-defined procedure to convict responsible cyber-criminals in a court of law. Log files provide significant digital evidence in computer networks when tracing cyber-criminals. Network log

Abstract:

Data-centric security is significant in understanding, assessing and mitigating the various risks and impacts of sharing information outside corporate boundaries. Information generally leaves corporate boundaries through mobile devices. Mobile devices continue to evolve as multi-functional tools for everyday life, surpassing their initial intended use. This added capability and increasingly extensive use of mobile devices does not come without a degree of risk - hence the need to guard and protect information as it exists beyond the corporate boundaries and throughout its lifecycle.

The phrase 'Internet of Things' refers to the pervasive instrumentation of physical objects with sensors and actuators, and the connection of those sensors and actuators to the Internet. These sensors and actuators are generally based on similar hardware as, and have similar capabilities to, wireless sensor network nodes. However, they operate in a completely different network environment: wireless sensor network nodes all generally belong to a single entity, whereas Internet of Things endpoints can belong to different, even competing, ones.

Consequently, the use of computers to assist in the assessment of computer programs has been important in supporting large classes at universities. The main approaches to the problem are dynamic analysis (testing student programs for expected output) and static analysis (direct analysis of the program code). The former is very sensitive to all kinds of errors in student programs, while the latter has traditionally only been used to assess quality, and not correctness.
