Analysis Of Theoretical And Applied Machine Learning Models For Network Intrusion Detection, Jonah Baron
Analysis Of Theoretical And Applied Machine Learning Models For Network Intrusion Detection, Jonah Baron
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
Network Intrusion Detection System (IDS) devices play a crucial role in the realm of network security. These systems generate alerts for security analysts by performing signature-based and anomaly-based detection on malicious network traffic. However, there are several challenges when configuring and fine-tuning these IDS devices for high accuracy and precision. Machine learning utilizes a variety of algorithms and unique dataset input to generate models for effective classification. These machine learning techniques can be applied to IDS devices to classify and filter anomalous network traffic. This combination of machine learning and network security provides improved automated network defense by developing highly-optimized …
Analyzing The Effectiveness Of Legal Regulations And Social Consequences For Securing Data, Howard B. Goodman
Analyzing The Effectiveness Of Legal Regulations And Social Consequences For Securing Data, Howard B. Goodman
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
There is a wide range of concerns and challenges related to stored data security – which range from privacy and management to operations readiness, These challenges span from financial to personal and public impact. With an abundance of regulations for the enforcement of data security and emerging requirements proposed every year, organizations cannot avoid the legal or social implications of inadequate data protection. Today, public spotlight and awareness are challenging organizations to enhance how data is protected more than at any other time. For this reason, organizations have made significant efforts to improve security.
When looking at precautions or changes, …
Analysis Of System Performance Metrics Towards The Detection Of Cryptojacking In Iot Devices, Richard Matthews
Analysis Of System Performance Metrics Towards The Detection Of Cryptojacking In Iot Devices, Richard Matthews
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
This single-case mechanism study examined the effects of cryptojacking on Internet of Things (IoT) device performance metrics. Cryptojacking is a cyber-threat that involves stealing the computational resources of devices belonging to others to generate cryptocurrencies. The resources primarily include the processing cycles of devices and the additional electricity needed to power this additional load. The literature surveyed showed that cryptojacking has been gaining in popularity and is now one of the top cyberthreats. Cryptocurrencies offer anyone more freedom and anonymity than dealing with traditional financial institutions which make them especially attractive to cybercriminals. Other reasons for the increasing popularity of …
Towards Identity Relationship Management For Internet Of Things, Mohammad Muntasir Nur
Towards Identity Relationship Management For Internet Of Things, Mohammad Muntasir Nur
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
Identity and Access Management (IAM) is in the core of any information systems. Traditional IAM systems manage users, applications, and devices within organizational boundaries, and utilize static intelligence for authentication and access control. Identity federation has helped a lot to deal with boundary limitation, but still limited to static intelligence – users, applications and devices must be under known boundaries. However, today’s IAM requirements are much more complex. Boundaries between enterprise and consumer space, on premises and cloud, personal devices and organization owned devices, and home, work and public places are fading away. These challenges get more complicated for Internet …
Traversing Nat: A Problem, Tyler Flaagan
Traversing Nat: A Problem, Tyler Flaagan
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
This quasi-experimental before-and-after study measured and analyzed the impacts of adding security to a new bi-directional Network Address Translation (NAT). Literature revolves around various types of NAT, their advantages and disadvantages, their security models, and networking technologies’ adoption. The study of the newly created secure bi-directional model of NAT showed statistically significant changes in the variables than another model using port forwarding. Future research of how data will traverse networks is crucial in an ever-changing world of technology.
