Network Security Projects

Network Security Projects design novel policies to shield any network. In general, Network Security is monitoring, Analysing, and defining unauthorized access over the network. In essence, the network consists of myriad nodes working together for the same cause. When a malicious node or attacker gets into the network, it is tough to detect and mitigate it. Mainly, the attackers seek the following info from the network,

• Environmental Data
• Private Conversations
• Security Keys Exchanged between Nodes
• Sensitive Credentials like PIN, Password
• Routing Information
• Control Packets
• And so on

   Gaining access to the above data, the attackers breaches the network security. Most of the networks such as WSN, SDN, MANET, VANET, RAN (5G and LTE), CDN, and so on are vulnerable to many attacks. In most cases, the diverse attacks are there, and each attack follows some patterns. To clarify, here we listed the few ideas for PhD projects in Network Security Attacks that take off in each layer of the network.

LAYER-WISE NETWORK SECURITY ATTACKS

PHYSICAL LAYER

• Jamming Attack
• Node Cloning
• Tampering Attack
• Malicious Code Injection
• Eavesdropping Attack

MAC LAYER

• MAC Spoofing
• Identity Theft
• Man-In-The-Middle Attack
• Network Commands and Packets Injection 

NETWORK LAYER

• Sybil and Collision Attack
• Selective Forwarding
• Exhaustion Attack
• Spoofing Attack
• Sinkhole Attack
• Wormhole and Blackhole

TRANSPORT LAYER

• TCP Flooding
• UDP Flooding
• TCP Sequence Prediction

APPLICATION LAYER

• DoS and DDoS Attack
• Desynchronization Attack
• Software Modification
• Malicious Codes
• Disclosure of Sensitive 

   As in above, the attacks not only vary in the layers but also in faces. For the case, MITM relies on the wireless link to gain the data while DDoS try to make service unavailable. All in all, each attack is a danger to the networks. Thus, more effective and robust solutions are in need. Yet, there are some network issues to restrict the evolution of defense methods. 

Challenges in Network Security projects

• Resource Limitations 
• Scalability Issues
• Heterogeneity
• Single Point Failure

   To tell the fact, all networks face these issues in recent times. The major reason behind this is the usage of networks is at the peak. As well, the growth of IoT brings us to a smarter world that builds upon the networks. To be sure, all the smart things we use in Smart Home, Smart City, Smart Grid are at the risk point. In order to defend against these attacks, Network Security Projects draw some more novel defense methods below.

NOVEL SECURITY SOLUTIONS 

• Network Port-based Access Control
• Multi-level Firewall Policies
• Radio Fingerprinting and Authentication
• Trust and Reputation-based Routing
• Network Coding and In-Network Processing
• En-Route Filtering and End-to-End Encryption

   The current defense solutions secure the networks at all. But, it is not sufficient since the attackers become stronger than that of solutions. In this state, we need to move towards strong as well as smart solutions. To tell the truth, the current evolution of AI methods like Machine Learning and Deep Learning opens a new way for network security. For added detail, have a glance over the below directions. 

FUTURE NETWORK SECURITY PROJECTS DIRECTIONS

In Security Concepts

• Secure MIMO Channelization 
• Secure RAN Slicing
• Authenticated Handover
• Secure Orchestration and Coordination
• Secure Resource Provisioning 
• And so on

In Defense Mechanisms

• Lightweight Cryptography
• Quantum Cryptosystems
• Lightweight IPS and IDS
• Multi-Factor Access Control
• Biometric-based Authentication
• Decentralized Security by Blockchain

   As the above are future of network security, we also update our brain with this stuff. In fact, we are masters in this field as we have practiced over 18+ years. In this long run, we wrapped 55K+ projects all over the world. That’s why we are able to pledge 100% worth in any of the work. If you want to touch the work of worth, then we are the best of the best choice. So choose wisely to become wise.
