Securing BGP Communities: Design of a new RPKI object to mitigate BGP Community Attacks

Research has shown that the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is vulnerable to a new attack that exploits the community attribute. These community attacks can influence BGP routing in unintended ways. Currently, there are no effective mitigations against these attacks which do not limit the normal usage of BGP communities or offer cryptographic...

Industry Compliant Wireless Power and Data Transfer Module Towards Ensuring Battery Denial of Service Protection

The field of active implantable medical devices (IMDs) has made huge steps forward in the last years. IMDs are used today for the treatment of previously untreatable conditions as well as the continuous monitoring of the health of patients. The field, where active IMDs have been the most successful, is the field of neurological conditions, on...

Co-simulation for Cyber Security Analysis: Data Attacks against Energy Management System

It is challenging to assess the vulnerability of a cyber-physical power system to data attacks from an integral perspective. In order to support vulnerability assessment except analytic analysis, suitable platform for security tests needs to be developed. In this paper we analyze the cyber security of energy management system (EMS) against data...

Design & development of public-key based authentication architecture for IoT devices using PUF

Secure communication has been paramount throughout history. Although in the early ages it was mainly found in niche applications such as the military and royal society, today it is an inevitable part of our daily lives. The recent rapid proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), a diverse set of devices that are connected to the Internet,...

Military satellite communications, history and status as of 1974

After a short introduction to various types of links and network organisations, the experimental phase in military satellite communications systems is expounded in a chronological discussion of early communications satellites. This experimental phase is considered to be ended with the TASCAT and IDCSP satellites. Present systems and systems of...
