Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Discrete Event Simulator for Extensive Defense Mechanism for Denial of Service Attacks AnalysisMaryam Tanha, Seyed Dawood Sajjadi Torshizi, S. ShamalaProblem statement: Seeking for defense mechanisms against low rate Denial of Service (DoS) attacks as a new generation of DoS attacks has received special attention during recent years. As a decisive factor, evaluating the performance of the offered mitigation techniques based on different metrics for determining the viability and ability of these countermeasures requires more research. Approach: The development of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 21 Mar 2012 · 7,470 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Analysis and Design of the Enhanced Firewall for Intranet SecurityU. K. Singh, A. K. Ramani, N. S. ChaudhariIntranet often employ an Internet firewall to mitigate risks of system penetration, data theft, data destruction and other security breaches. Conventional Internet firewalls impose an overly simple inside vs. outside model of security that is incompatible with many business practices that require extending limited trust to external entities. Additionally, firewall security perimeters are somewhat weak: they provide no protection from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,709 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing Effectiveness of IDS to Improve Security in IntranetUmesh Kumar Singh, A. K. Ramani, Narendra S. Chaudhari, Vandana GuptaToday Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are becoming one of the most important tools for intranet security. Research regarding Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) has become more active with the recent increases in illegal accesses to computer systems. Many researchers focus only on the techniques or mechanisms for detecting intrusions automatically, without considering the security of IDSs themselves. When an intruder attacks … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Novel Odor Key Technique for Security Applications Using Electronic Nose SystemMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: A novel approach to security applications that makes use of odors as password generators is developed and tested. The developed system detects and converts odor signals that are randomly selected to binary signals and then intelligently compares them with previously stored values. Approach: The interface device in question then either opens its interface if comparison is successful or … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
