Abstract:
Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of communication devices or nodes that wish to communicate without any fixed infrastructure and pre-determined organization of available links. The nodes in MANET themselves are responsible for dynamically discovering other nodes to communicate. Although the ongoing trend is to adopt ad hoc networks for commercial uses due to their certain unique properties, the main challenge is the vulnerability to security attacks. A number of challenges like open peer-to-peer network architecture, stringent resource constraints, shared wireless medium, dynamic

Abstract:
The World Wide Web (WWW) has become the largest source of Internet traffic, but it was not designed for wireless networks. Documents with large inline images take a long time to fetch over low-bandwidth wireless networks. Radio signal dropouts cause file transfers to abort; users have to restart file transfers from the beginning. Dropouts also prevent access to documents that have not yet been visited by the user. All of these problems create user frustration and limit the utility of the WWW and wireless networks. In this work, a new Wireless World Wide Web (WWWW) proxy server and protocol

Abstract:
Accidental and targeted data breaches threaten sustainable business practices and personal privacy, exposing all types of businesses to increased data loss and financial impacts. This single case study was conducted in a medium-sized enterprise located in Brevard County, Florida, to explore the successful data protection strategies employed by the information system and information technology business leaders. Actor-network theory was the conceptual framework for the study with a graphical syntax to model data protection strategies. Data were collected from semistructured interviews of 3 busin

Abstract:
Botnets are a pervasive threat to the Internet and its inhabitants. A botnet is a collection of infected machines that receive commands from the botmaster, a person, group or nation- state, to perform malicious actions. Instead of “cleaning” individual infections, one can sever the method of communication between a botmaster and her zombies by attempting a botnet takedown, which contains the botnet and its malicious actions. Unfortunately, takedowns are currently performed without technical rigor nor are there automated and independent means to measure success or assist in performing them. Thi

Abstract:
This thesis is focused on smart buildings where communication and automatization technologies are deployed. It includes overview and description of frequently applied network protocols in smart homes and their side by side comparison with an emphasis on Thread networking protocol. The next chapters describe details and parameters of used development boards provided by NXP Semiconductors and their implementation in a smart home model. Subsequent chapters are focused on hardware and software components which are the basis for smart home model’s internal workings. The last chapter highlights how

Abstract:
Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) are a next generation network that is expected to solve the wireless spectrum shortage problem, which is the shrinking of available wireless spectrum resources needed to facilitate future wireless applications. The first CRN standard, the IEEE 802.22, addresses this particular problem by allowing CRNs to share geographically unused TV spectrum to mitigate the spectrum shortage. Equipped with reasoning and learning engines, cognitive radios operate autonomously to locate unused channels to maximize its own bandwidth and Quality-of-Service (QoS). However, their in

Abstract:
In this thesis we develop, evaluate and implement a security solution for Open Controllers wireless sensor network platform. A scenario is used to describe an exemplar application showing how our system is supposed to function. The security of the platform is analyzed using a well-established threat modeling process and attack trees which result in the identification of a number of risks, which could be security weaknesses. These attack trees visualize the security weaknesses in an easy to access way even for individuals without special security expertise. We develop a security solution to cou
