Cybersecurity Challenge Analysis of Work-from-Anywhere (WFA) and Recommendations guided by a User Study

Many organizations were forced to quickly transition to the work-from-anywhere (WFA) model to continue their operations and remain in business despite the restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many decisions were made in a rush, and cybersecurity decency tools were not in place to support this transition. This project aims to evaluate... More

Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) – Projects

Securing RPL Using Network Coding: The Chained Secure Mode (CSM) Considered the preferred routing protocol for many Internet of Things (IoT) networks, the routing protocol for low power and lossy networks (RPL) incorporates three security modes to protect the integrity and confidentiality of the routing process: 1) the unsecured mode (UM); 2)...

Investigating QUIC’s Suitability for the Internet of Things

Investigating QUIC's Suitability for the Internet of Things QUIC is a connection-oriented, stateful, and flow-controlled transport protocol. Instead of identifying connections with IP addresses and port numbers, unique connection IDs are used -- allowing for connections to persist after network changes or address re-mappings. QUIC packets consist... More

Secure 5G Core Network Slicing in Support of IoT Application

      The key motivation for this work is that future smart services (e.g. IoT applications) will have competing and perhaps conflicting networking performance requirements. These services will also require flexible and agile deployment. 5G networks, an essential component of future virtualized infrastructures, deal with this issue... More

Resource augmentation in Mobile Cloud Computing

    In this research, we address resourced-constrained mobile devices’ ability to get computing support from external sources. This could enhance the performance of their applications and extend their battery life by resource augmentation techniques where more powerful computing sources support the mobile devices. We investigate this... More

Location Verification on the Internet

  This research aims at verifying location claims of Internet clients. A wide spectrum of location-sensitive Internet applications could benefit from verifying location assertions. To that end, we designed Client Presence Verification (CPV), a delay-based mechanism by which a location assertion could be verified to a certain degree of... More

Adaptive SDN Controllers

    In this project, we introduce the use of adaptive controllers into software-defined networking (SDN), and propose the use of adaptive consistency models in the context of distributed SDN controllers. These adaptive controllers can tune their own configurations in real-time in order to enhance the performance of the applications... More
