Research ArticleOpen accessAutoencoder-Based Intrusion Detection for ARP Poisoning in SDN ControllersKago Seemela, Banyatsang Mphago, Thabo Semong, Phephisa MethulaAddress Resolution Protocol (ARP) poisoning is still a critical control plane attack in Software Defined Networks (SDNs), and spoofing of ARP mappings can trick SDNs controller and accomplish man in the middle, eavesdropping and denial of service attacks. Current SDN intrusion detection systems of ARP attacks rely on supervised learning and labelled attack data which is rather expensive and not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 7 · 21 Jul 2026 · 869 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessA Multiphase Zero-Trust Authentication Framework Using Replicated and Homomorphic EncryptionModisaotsile Marope, Venumadhav Kuthadi, Rajalakshmi Selvaraj et al.In response to the increasing complexity and vulnerability of traditional authentication techniques, this paper proposes the Multiphase Zero-Trust Authentication Framework (MZTAF), which combines device-level and user-level authentication to enhance security in zero-trust environments. Phase I leverages replicated key-based authentication to ensure fault tolerance and reduce the risk of device-level compromise. Phase II introduces homomorphic encryption for user authentication, securely verifying … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,657 accessesView PDF Cite
