Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsArithmetic Encoding Based Dynamic Source Routing for Ad-Hoc NetworksAjay Koul, R. B. Patel, V. K. BhatAn ad hoc network is a collection of mobile stations forming a temporary network without the aid of any centralized coordinator. Routing messages are an essential component of Mobile Adhoc Networks, as each packet needs to be passed quickly through intermediate nodes from source to destination. Internal threats due to changes in the node behaviour that target the routing discovery … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,604 accessesView PDF Cite

InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractSurvey of Websites and Web Application Security Threats Using Vulnerability AssessmentVincent Appiah, Michael Asante, Isaac Kofi Nti, Owusu Nyarko-BoatengNowadays information has become anasset to many institutions and as a result these institutions have become targets for people with malicious intents to attack these institutions. The web is now an important means of transacting business and without security, websites cannot thrive in today’s complex computer ecosystem as there are new threats emerging as old ones are being tackled.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Based Approach with a Sliding Window Model to Detect and Mitigate Ddos AttacksD. Ayyamuthukumar, S. KarthikDDoS attacks have become very popular since the turn of this millennium and has stayed in the headlines due to ever increasing and sometimes devastating attacks on popular web servers. In this study, we deal with DDoS attacks by proposing a correlation based approach with a sliding window model to detect and mitigate DDoS attack. The proposed scheme identifies malicious … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Feb 2015 · 6,745 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBehaviour Based Worm Detection and Signature AutomationMohammed Anbar, Selvakumar Manickam, Al-Samarraie Hosam et al.Problem statement: A worm is a malicious piece of code that self-propagates, often via network connections, to exploit security flaws in computers connected through the network. In general, worms do not need any human intervention to propagate and are considered a real threat to network assets and the properties of organizations. An Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are employed to detect … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 6 Sep 2011 · 6,895 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Secure Protocol Based on a Sedentary Agent for Mobile Agent EnvironmentsAbdelmorhit E. Rhazi, Samuel Pierre, Hanifa BouchenebThe main challenge when deploying mobile agent environments pertains to security issues concerning mobile agents and their executive platform. This paper proposes a secure protocol which protects mobile agents against attacks from malicious hosts in these environments. Protection is based on the perfect cooperation of a sedentary agent running inside a trusted third host. Results show that the protocol detects … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,878 accessesView PDF Cite
