A 2013 Study Of Wireless Network Security In New Zealand: Are We There Yet?, Alastair Nisbet Dec 2013

A 2013 Study Of Wireless Network Security In New Zealand: Are We There Yet?, Alastair Nisbet

Australian Information Security Management Conference

This research examines the current level of security in wireless networks in New Zealand. A comprehensive wardrive covering the length of the country was made in January 2013 to ensure accurate comparisons from two previous wardrives as well as comparisons between the four main cities and the suburbs can be made. With 16 years since the introduction of the original IEEE 802.11 wireless standard having passed, an examination is made of the current state of wireless security of networks throughout New Zealand and the Auckland suburbs, and where possible compares these results with similar studies undertaken in 2004 and 2011. …


Privacy And Legal Issues In Cloud Computing - The Smme Position In South Africa, Mathias Mujinga Dec 2013

Privacy And Legal Issues In Cloud Computing - The Smme Position In South Africa, Mathias Mujinga

Australian Information Security Management Conference

Cloud computing (CC) brings substantial benefits to organizations and their clients. Information technology (IT) users in developing countries, especially those in underdeveloped communities, are gaining easy and cost‐effective access to a variety of services, from entertainment to banking. South Africa has outlined a national e‐strategy that aims to improve those communities, by providing frameworks for access to information and communications technology (ICT). The products and services of small‐, medium and micro‐sized enterprises (SMME) are now reaching a wider audience through the use of technology. CC can go a long way to help government realize the national e‐strategy. There are numerous …


Automated Detection Of Vehicles With Machine Learning, Michael N. Johnstone, Andrew Woodward Jan 2013

Automated Detection Of Vehicles With Machine Learning, Michael N. Johnstone, Andrew Woodward

Australian Information Security Management Conference

Considering the significant volume of data generated by sensor systems and network hardware which is required to be analysed and intepreted by security analysts, the potential for human error is significant. This error can lead to consequent harm for some systems in the event of an adverse event not being detected. In this paper we compare two machine learning algorithms that can assist in supporting the security function effectively and present results that can be used to select the best algorithm for a specific domain. It is suggested that a naive Bayesian classiifer (NBC) and an artificial neural network (ANN) …
