Security Key Management Model for Low Rate Wireless Personal Area NetworksCSCJournals
IEEE 802.15.4-based devices networks known by the name of LR-WPAN (Low Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) are characterized by low computation, memory and storage space, and they do not possess an infrastructure. This makes them dynamic and easy to deploy, but in the other hand, this makes them very vulnerable to security issues, as they are low energy so they cant implement current security solutions, and they are deployed in non-secure environments that makes them susceptible to eavesdropping attacks. Most proposed solutions draw out the security of the bootstrapping and commissioning phases as the percentage of existing of an intruder in this time is very low. In this paper, we propose a security model for LR-WPANs based on symmetric cryptography, which takes into account securing the bootstrapping phase, with an analysis of the effectiveness of this proposal and the measures of its implementation.
CERTIFICATELESS SCHEME BASED NTRU CRYPTOSYSTEM FOR AD-HOC UWB-IR NETWORKijwmn
From the radar and military research world’s, the Ultra-WideBand Impulse Radio (UWB-IR) was
adopted in the telecommunications world in the 1990’. Currently, the UWB-IR technology is an
interesting candidate for close range Wireless Sensors Networks (WSNs). It is particularly attractive
for industrial sensor networks due to its resilience to multipath interference, simple transceiver
circuitry, accurate ranging ability, and low transmission power. In order to secure data and communications
in the Ad-Hoc UWB-IR networks, UWB-IR requires suitable encryption protocols. In
this paper, we review and summarize the IEEE 802.15.4 security sub-layer protocol of UWB-IR
based Symmetric Key Cryptography scheme. Then, we highlight the different vulnerabilities and
weaknesses present in this type of scheme. Finally, we prove, after a deep examination of multiple
Public Key Cryptography (PKC) schemes, that the certificateless one is the most suitable for Ad-Hoc
UWB-IR networks characterized by nodes mobility. Indeed, we have also evaluated and analyzed the
different public key cryptosystems (PKCS) and concluded that NTRU is the most optimum public
key cryptosystem to be used with the certificateless scheme in order to secure data and communications
in Ad-Hoc UWB-IR Networks. This is due to the fact that it is the fastest PKCS to provide
different security levels at a high speed with very constrained resources.
As of late, remote sensor organize (WSN) is
utilized in numerous application zones, for
example, checking, following, and controlling. For
some utilizations of WSN, security is an essential
necessity. In any case, security arrangements in
WSN vary from conventional systems because of
asset confinement and computational
requirements. This paper investigates security
arrangements: Tiny Sec, IEEE 802.15.4, Twists,
Mini SEC, LSec, LLSP, LISA, and Drawl in
WSN. The paper additionally introduces qualities,
security prerequisites, assaults, encryption
calculations, and operation modes. This paper is
thought to be valuable for security planners in
WSNs.
Context-Aware Intrusion Detection and Tolerance in MANETsIDES Editor
Mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is a
decentralized network where each node will forward the data
to other nodes. The major challenge in handling security in
MANETs is that the network is not constant and thereby it is
difficult to set a constant algorithm for detecting the intrusion.
In this work, a context-aware intrusion detection and
tolerance module for MANETs is proposed. A node in
MANET can be a filtering node or a monitor node. The
intrusion detection based on context awareness is done with
the help of filtering and monitoring nodes and intrusion
tolerance is done with the help of membership policy. The
filtering nodes have minimum level of static database and the
monitoring nodes have a database with learning capability.
For tolerance, the nodes which are not a member are denied
service while the nodes which are members are allowed the
service according to some specific rules.

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is one of the rapidly emanating technologies, which has gained attention in a wide range of applications in the fields of military, private sectors, commercials and natural calamities. Securing MANET is a dominant responsibility, and hence, a trust factor and fuzzy based intrusion detection and prevention system is proposed for routing in this paper. Based on the trust values of the nodes, the fuzzy system identifies the intruder, such that the path generated in the MANET is secured. Moreover, an optimization algorithm, entitled Fuzzy integrated Particle Swarm Optimization (FuzzyFPSO), is proposed by the concatenation of the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for the optimal path selection in order to provide secure routing. The simulation of the proposed methodology is NS2 simulator and analysis is carried out considering four cases, like without attack, flooding attacks, black hole attack and selective packet drop attack concerning throughput, delay and detection rate. The remarkable evaluation measures of the proposed Fuzzy-FPSO are the maximal throughput of 0.634, minimal delay of 0.044 , maximal detection rate of 0.697 and minimal routing overhead of 0.24550 And the evaluation measure for the case without any attacks are the maximal throughput of 0.762, minimal delay of 0.029 ,maximal detection rate of 0.805 and minimal routing overhead of 0.11511.
HIERARCHICAL DESIGN BASED INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM FOR WIRELESS AD HOC SENS...IJNSA Journal
In recent years, wireless ad hoc sensor network becomes popular both in civil and military jobs. However, security is one of the significant challenges for sensor network because of their deployment in open and unprotected environment. As cryptographic mechanism is not enough to protect sensor network from external attacks, intrusion detection system needs to be introduced. Though intrusion prevention mechanism is one of the major and efficient methods against attacks, but there might be some attacks for which prevention method is not known. Besides preventing the system from some known attacks, intrusion detection system gather necessary information related to attack technique and help in the development of intrusion prevention system. In addition to reviewing the present attacks available in wireless sensor network this paper examines the current efforts to intrusion detection
system against wireless sensor network. In this paper we propose a hierarchical architectural design based intrusion detection system that fits the current demands and restrictions of wireless ad hoc sensor network. In this proposed intrusion detection system architecture we followed clustering mechanism to build a four level hierarchical network which enhances network scalability to large geographical area and use both anomaly and misuse detection techniques for intrusion detection. We introduce policy based detection mechanism as well as intrusion response together with GSM cell concept for intrusion detection architecture.

Machine learning techniques are being widely used to develop an intrusion detection system (IDS) for detecting and classifying cyber attacks at the network-level and the host-level in a timely and automatic manner. However, Traditional Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), based on traditional machine learning methods, lacks reliability and accuracy. Instead of the traditional machine learning used in previous researches, we think deep learning has the potential to perform better in extracting features of massive data considering the massive cyber traffic in real life. Generally Mobile Ad Hoc Networks have given the low physical security for mobile devices, because of the properties such as node mobility, lack of centralized management and limited bandwidth. To tackle these security issues, traditional cryptography schemes can-not completely safeguard MANETs in terms of novel threats and vulnerabilities, thus by applying Deep learning methods techniques in IDS are capable of adapting the dynamic environments of MANETs and enables the system to make decisions on intrusion while continuing to learn about their mobile environment. An IDS in MANET is a sensoring mechanism that monitors nodes and network activities in order to detect malicious actions and malicious attempt performed by Intruders. Recently, multiple deep learning approaches have been proposed to enhance the performance of intrusion detection system. In this paper, we made a systematic comparison of three models, Inceprtion architecture convolutional neural network (Inception-CNN), Bidirectional long short-term memory (BLSTM) and deep belief network (DBN) on the deep learning-based intrusion detection systems, using the NSL-KDD dataset containing information about intrusion and regular network connections, the goal is to provide basic guidance on the choice of deep learning models in MANET.

Practical analysis of the cybersecurity of European smart gridsSergey Gordeychik
This paper summarizes the experience gained during a series of
practical cybersecurity assessments of various components of Europe’s
smart electrical grids.
As the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system are deployed in infrastructures which are critical to the survival of a nation, they have emerged as a potential terrain for cyber-war, thus attracting the considered attention of ‘nation-states’. The analysis of worms like ‘stuxnet’ ‘flame’ and ‘duqu’ reveals the hand of a ‘nation-state’ in their design and deployment. Hence, the necessity to understand various issues in the defence of SCADA systems arises. The forensics of the SCADA system provide deep insight into the design and deployment of the worm (the malware) once the system is attacked. This is precisely the scope of this essay.
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a promising field for research. As the use of this field increases, it is
required to give proper security to this field. So to ensure the security of communication of data or messages and to
control the use of data in WSN is of great importance. As sensor networks interact with responsive data and operate
in unfriendly unattended area, from the time of system design these security concerns should be addressed. The paper,
presents a modified Motesec security protocol which is a security mechanism for Wireless sensor network. In this
protocol a hash function based approach is used to detect replay attacks. For data access control key lock matching
method i.e. memory data access control policy is used to prevent unauthorized data access. Encoding and
reconstruction scheme is used to find out attacker. Flooding attack detection by comparing data rate. There is currently
massive research is present in the area of wireless sensor network security..Keywords: GPS,GCM,LBS Android.

A NOVEL SECURITY PROTOCOL FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS BASED ON ELLIPTIC CURV...IJCNCJournal
With the growing usage of wireless sensors in a variety of applications including Internet of Things, the security aspects of wireless sensor networks have been on priority for the researchers. Due to the constraints of resources in wireless sensor networks, it has been always a challenge to design efficient security protocols for wireless sensor networks. An novel elliptic curve signcryption based security protocol for wireless sensor networks has been presented in this paper, which provides anonymity, confidentiality, mutual authentication, forward security, secure key establishment, and key privacy at the same time providing resistance from replay attack, impersonation attack, insider attack, offline dictionary attack, and stolen-verifier attack. Results have revealed that the proposed elliptic curve signcryption based protocol consumes the least time in comparison to other protocols while providing the highest level of security.

Wireless sensor networks will be widely deployed in the near future. While much research has focused on making these networks feasible and useful, security has received little attention. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are a most challenging and emerging technology for the Research due to their vital scope in the field coupled with their low processing power and associated low energy. As wireless sensor networks continue to grow, so does the need for effective security mechanisms. Because sensor networks may interact with sensitive data and/or operate in hostile unattended environments, it is imperative that these security concerns be addressed from the beginning of the system design staring with a brief overview of the sensor networks security, a review is made of and how to provide the security in the wireless sensor networks. This paper studies the security problems, Requirement, Architecture of WSN and different platform, characterized by severely constrained computational and energy resources, and an ad hoc operational environment.
Analyze and Detect Packet Loss for Data Transmission in WSNIJERA Editor
An emerging technology is Wireless Sensor Network where sensors are deployed at extreme geographical
locations where human intervention is not possible. The data transferred through the sensor nodes are majorly
used in crucial decision making process. Since WSN is a wireless infrastructure it tempts the attackers to
tamper/misuse the data. Privacy-preserving routing is important for some ad hoc networks that require stronger
privacy protection. Hence a routing protocol to achieve total unobservability by anonymous key establishment
using secret session keys and group signature is used. The unobservable routing protocol is divided into two
main phases. First phases define an anonymous key establishment process to construct secret session keys.
Second phase consist of unobservable route discovery process to find appropriate as well as secure route to the
destination. A node establishes a key with its direct neighbour and uses the same key to encrypt the packet
before transferring.
In this research work an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) will be implemented to detect and prevent critical networks infrastructure from cyber-attacks. To strengthen network security and improve the network's active defense intrusion detection capabilities, this project will consist of intrusion detection system using honey token based encrypted pointers and intrusion prevention system which based on the mixed interactive honeypot. The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is based on the novel approach of Honey Token based Encrypted Pointers. This honey token inside the frame will serve as a trap for the attacker. All nodes operating within the working domain of critical infrastructure network are divided into four different pools. This division is based per their computational power and level of vulnerability. These pools are provided with different levels of security measures within the network. IDS use different number of Honey Tokens (HT) per frame for every different pool e.g. Pool-A contains 4 HT/frame, Pool-B contains 3 HT/frame, Pool-C contains 2 HT/frame and Pool-D contain 1 HT/frame. Moreover, every pool uses different types of encryption schemes (AES-128,192,256). Our critical infrastructure network of 64 nodes is under the umbrella of unified security provided by this single Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS). After the design phase of IDS, we analyze the performance of IDS in terms of True Positives (TP) and False Negatives (FN). Finally, we test these IDS through Network Penetration Testing (NPT) phase. The detection rate depends on the number of honey tokens per frame. Our proposed IDS are a scalable solution and it can be implemented for any number of nodes in critical infrastructure network. However, in case of Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) we use Virtual honeypot technology which is the best active prevention technology among all honeypot technologies. By using the original operating system and virtual technology, the honeypot lures attackers in a pre-arranged manner, analyzes and audits various attacking behavior, tracks the attack source, obtains evidence, and finds effective solutions.
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) are applications that collect data from a system in order to automate the monitoring and controlling of its activities. Several industrial fields such as, electric utilities, water supplies and buildings’ facilities have already adopted SCADA systems to increase the efficiency and reduce cost. However, the IT community is concerned about the level of security that any applied SCADA system provides. This paper concentrates on the major security threats encountered in SCADA systems. In addition, it discusses a new proposed methodology in order to increase the system security with minimal impact on efficiency. The proposed scheme provides several security services which are mutual authentication, confidentiality, data integrity and accountability.

The security mechanism are not used directly in wireless sensor networks compare to wired networks, there is no user control and insufficient energy resources. In wireless environment, proposing the scheme of detection of distributed sensor cloning attacks and Zero knowledge protocols (ZKP) are used to verifying authenticity of the sender sensor nodes. Cloning attack is concentrate on by attaching fingerprint which is unique that depends on the set of neighboring nodes and itself. Every message contains a finger print which sensor node sends.ZKP is used to avoid man in the middle attack and reply attacks from the important cryptographic information in wireless networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have recently attracted a lot of interest in the research community due their wide range of applications. Due to distributed and deployed in a un attend environment, these are vulnerable to numerous security threats. In this paper, describe the design and implementation of public-key-(PK)-based protocols that allow authentication and session key establishment between a sensor network and a third party. WSN have limitations on computational capacity, battery etc which provides scope for challenging problems. We fundamentally focused on the security issue of WSNs The proposed protocol is efficient and secure in compared to other public key based protocols in WSNs.
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) are applications that collect data from a system in order to automate the monitoring and controlling of its activities. Several industrial fields such as, electric utilities, water supplies and buildings' facilities have already adopted SCADA systems to increase the efficiency and reduce cost. However, the IT community is concerned about the level of security that any applied SCADA system provides. This paper concentrates on the major security threats encountered in SCADA systems. In addition, it discusses a new proposed methodology in order to increase the system security with minimal impact on efficiency. The proposed scheme provides several security services which are mutual authentication, confidentiality, data integrity and accountability.

Wireless sensor networks are currently the greatest innovation in the field of telecommunications. WSNs
have a wide range of potential applications, including security and surveillance, control, actuation and
maintenance of complex systems and fine-grain monitoring of indoor and outdoor environments. However
security is one of the major aspects of Wireless sensor networks due to the resource limitations of sensor
nodes. Those networks are facing several threats that affect their functioning and their life. In this paper we
present security attacks in wireless sensor networks, and we focus on comparison and analysis of recent
Intrusion Detection schemes in WSNs.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

• Low-cost devices (also low or no cabling costs) measuring several environmental parameters that can be indicative of
physical threats
• Resilience to physical attacks due to easy to implement mesh topology and absence of both power and data cables
• Possibly “Plug’n’play”, easily maintainable and scalable
CONS:
• Radio connection (“open” network) vulnerable to interferences and attacks (jamming, hacking, etc.)
• No “ruggedized” hardware
• Limitation in power, memory and other resources -> power/resource-aware security

Ubiquitous Computing (IMIS), 2012 Sixth International Conference on , vol., no., pp.597,602, 4-6 July 2012
10. The pSHIELD experimentation: security
10
A security attack has been simulated in which an intruder node tries to intercept the
ECDH protocol in order to pick up private information. Since the master node knows the
nodes participating in the protocol and by their ID Number (established at system
deployment), it becomes aware of an intrusion, then it immediately toggles a red led and
stops the communication.
It allows to establish a shared secret key for channel encryption and a mechanism to achieve broadcast authentication
of query messages sent by the master to the motes through the ECDSA protocol.
The cryptosystem is based on the WM-ECC library, a publicly available open source implementation of a 160-bit ECC
(Elliptic curve cryptography) cryptosystem.
A mechanism for key exchanging
(between the master and the
motes) based on the ECDH
protocol has been implemented.
12. The nSHIELD experimentation: methodology

“Safety-world heritage” approach:
- reference railway norms and international standards (CENELEC EN501XX)
- semi(formal) methods like state-based testing already used for ERTMS/ETCS functional verification
- “hardware-in-the-loop” simulation environment with threat-injection capabilities
CENELEC EN 50159 Keywords
Keyword Meaning
Repetition A message is received more than once
Deletion A message is removed from a message stream
Insertion A new message is implanted in the message
stream
Resequencing Messages are received in an unexpected
sequence
Corruption The information contained in a message is
changed, casually or not
Delay Messages are received at a time later than
intended
Masquerade A non-authentic message is designed thus to
appear to be authentic (an authentic message
means a valid message in which the
information is certificated as originated from
an authenticated data source)

15. Lessons learnt, conclusions & future developments
• The usage of WSN in railways is very promising and enables novel real-time monitoring scenarios for
many surveillance and diagnostic applications
• Data security issues can be effectively addressed by the recent research and technological developments
• Several other issues need to be addressed in real-world scenarios to ensure feasibility, like:
• Appropriate enclosures and certification for use on-board
• Installation & maintenance procedures, compliant with railway norms and best-practices
• Energy harvesting options (solar, wind, vibrations, thermal, etc.)
• In fact, railway operators are interested in low-cost, plug’n’play, easy to maintain, reliable, safe and secure
systems… something that is not so easy to achieve at the current state of research and technology!
• While several issues have been already solved regarding data integration and security, still further efforts
are needed for the final industralisation of general-purpose WSN-based solutions for railway applications
