Design And Development Of A Secure, Privacy Preserving, And Scalable Blockchain Framework

by Randhir Kumar

~~44,82€~~ 35,86€ 20% OFF

 Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2021 in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: Blockchain is an emerging technology, leveraged with features of decentralization, tamper-proof records storage model based on a Peer-to-Peer architecture. It has been mostly applied in financial applications, and extended to various applications, viz., healthcare, supply-chain, and identity management. However, privacy, security, and scalability are the key challenges in blockchain-based applications that immensely limit the extensive adoption of these extended applications. The work in this thesis addresses the aforementioned challenges, while preserving better privacy, security, and scalability in blockchain-based applications. We propose access control techniques to facilitate better privacy, security in the blockchain network and improve scalability off-chain storage model. First, we propose an access control technique to preserve privacy across the blockchain network such that authorized peers can access the resources. Initially, the access control technique is designed for resource privacy. Further, we extend the policy to preserve privacy in blockchain network by categorizing both peers and resources. In this thesis, we also address another important problem, i.e., scalability in blockchain network while storing large size of data in secure off-chain storage. We use a secure distributed off-chain storage model to address the problem of scalability, based on the structure of the blockchain network. Lastly, we propose two-level of privacy preservation approach in blockchain network, while maintaining the scalability in the network. The proposed approach uses BlockCloud-BlockFog structure for deployment and IPFS-based off-chain storage model for large size data storage. All the proposed frameworks are evaluated using real-world data sets.

Critical Analysis Of Ransomware In Relation To Cybercrime

by Rhoda Kariuki

~~17,91€~~ 14,33€ 20% OFF

 Academic Paper from the year 2023 in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: Ransomware attacks are not a new idea, but their prevalence has risen dramatically in recent times. A key explanation for this is the financial compensation that the perpetrator stands to gain, as well as the fact that crypto-currency allows for anonymous transactions. Initially a single-host menace, ransomware is rapidly developing to conduct more sophisticated attacks by spreading through a network of hosts. One of the most difficult aspects of defending from these attacks is that every ransomware caucus is always evolving, rendering individual samples unidentifiable. Common signature-based countermeasures, such as those used to fight viruses, are made ineffective as a result. Furthermore, attempting to reverse engineer each sample in order to develop successful countermeasures or solutions is an expensive venture. Much more so now that ransomware writers are beginning to use complicated methods ensuring that getting to the original source code more difficult. The researcher believes that a more general detection approach can be used to find a solution. It should be focused on the traits that all ransomware families share. This should help to shift the focus of research from samples to families. I collect meta-data about the files that are read and written during ransomware attacks using easy and fast metrics and applied a qualitative mode of data collection. These attacks have a common pattern of attempting to encrypt all of the victims' data. Encrypted files have a significant increase in entropy while the data size remains relatively unchanged. These characteristics can also be seen in normal user behaviour, such as when a user encrypts a file. As a result, we must allow encryption while also imposing a frequency limit to ensure that regular user traffic does not result in false positives.

Data Encryption Standard (Des) And Issues Of Des And Its Replacement

by Haitham Ismail

~~15,74€~~ 12,59€ 20% OFF

 Scientific Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, grade: 75%, , language: English, abstract: This report will select one of the obsolete cryptographic algorithms, analyse it, discuss one of its vulnerabilities, and suggest a modern algorithm to address this weakness. The business Management system (BMS) is a powerful management tool that helps an organisation s management build, create, control, and monitor business activities. Currently, it evolved and has become the backbone of strategic planning and everyday business operations. BMS has the technical infrastructure, such as access control, to protect information from unauthorised access. Still, it can not be used alone to preserve the confidentiality and integrity of information handled against different challenges such as secure system development and maintenance, operation and physical security and compliance with regulations. Cryptography plays an essential role in protecting data s confidentiality and integrity, which might be hosted within the companies premises or outsourced to a cloud service. Furthermore, cryptography protect information processed and transmitted within a communication medium. BMS incorporates many algorithms that serve this purpose; however, some of them are legacy or obsolete, such as RC2, RC4, DES, 3DES, MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA-1, and no longer recommended to be used because they are proved to be vulnerable.

Implentation Of Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Techniques Against Cyber Attacks

by Torty Vincent

~~41,45€~~ 33,16€ 20% OFF

 Master's Thesis in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, , language: English, abstract: Big Data analytics is the act of analysing data to discover hidden patterns, trends, preferences, and other important information in order to detect infiltration, prevent fraud, and possibly make the right judgements. This study was carried out to investigate the implementation of big data analytics as a technique for information protection against cyber attacks. This study specifically examined the extent of big data analytics implementation and the challenges militating the adoption and full implementation. The survey research design was employed and a total of one hundred and twenty-one staff members of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) were enrolled in the study. The instrumentation of questionnaire was used to elicit information from the study participants. The data collected were analysed using the binary logistic regression. Findings from the study revealed that big data analytics provides better advantage to information protection against cyber attacks. Also, the findings showed that to a significant extent, big data analytics has not been full adopted and implemented by institution and organizations in Nigeria. This gap was detected in this study to be a result of high cost of hiring expert personnel, time and large quantity of silos. These factors indirectly affects the decision of top management regarding the adoption and implementation of big data analytics. This study recommends the adoption and implementation of big data analytics by organizations and institutions in Nigeria. Adequate training should be provided for staff members whose job description involves interacting with big data.
