Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) proliferate quickly and play a significant part in crucial tasks, so it is important to protect the security and integrity of UAV communication channels. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) are required to protect the UAV communication infrastructure from unauthorized access and harmful actions. In this paper, we examine a new approach for enhancing intrusion detection in UAV communication channels by utilizing the Long Short-Term Memory network (LSTM) combined with the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) algorithm, and this integration is the binary classification method (LSTM-SMOTE). We successfully achieved 99.83% detection accuracy by More >

Abstract The widespread use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as smart appliances, phones, and watches, has brought about concerns regarding security and privacy. With the increasing prevalence of cyberattacks from both malicious and non-malicious sources, security has become a critical factor in the design of IoT systems. In particular, data security poses a significant challenge due to the growing amount of data stored in IoT systems. Inadequate security measures can allow hackers to take over IoT devices remotely, resulting in significant damage. To address these concerns and improve the security of IoT-based smart door… More >

Abstract Organisations closed their offices and began working from home online to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This shift in work culture coincided with increased online use during the same period. As a result, the rate of cybercrime has skyrocketed. This study examines the approaches, techniques, and countermeasures of Social Engineering and phishing in this context. The study discusses recent trends in the existing approaches for identifying phishing assaults. We explore social engineering attacks, categorise them into types, and offer both technical and social solutions for countering phishing attacks which makes this paper different More >

Abstract Cyberattacks have reached their peak during COVID-19, and intruders urge to gain the upper hand in the cybersecurity battlefield, even gaining dominance. Now intruders are trying harder to elude behavior analysis techniques, which in turn gets organization security to come for a toss. This phenomenon is even more prevalent in agentless environments (IOT devices, mobile devices), where we do not have any access to edge devices and rely on packet data to predict any attack and its actors. In this paper, we shall be discussing enhancing the accuracy of anomalous behavior detection techniques for efficient… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of information technology, audit objects and audit itself are more and more inseparable from software. As an important means of software security audit, code security audit will become an important aspect of future audit that cannot be ignored. However, the existing code security audit is mainly based on source code, which is difficult to meet the audit needs of more and more programming languages and binary commercial software. Based on the idea of normalized transformation, this paper constructs a cross language code security audit framework (CLCSA). CLCSA first uses compile/decompile technology… More >

Abstract Hospitals provide daily health services for thousands of patients. People, processes, and technologies drive the objectives and goals of the hospitals to ensure optimal and satisfactory health care services are rendered to their customers. Due to the sensitivity of the organization data and patient data, it is essential to ensure that the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and security of these data are considered. The leadership of the organization (managers and executives) must integrate a robust security plan when choosing the technologies that will be used to drive the organization’s processes. This paper will evaluate the existing More >

Abstract Campus network provides a critical stage to student service and campus administration, which assumes a paramount part in the strategy of ‘Rejuvenating the Country through Science and Education’ and ‘Revitalizing China through Talented Persons’. However, with the rapid development and continuous expansion of campus network, network security needs to be an essential issue that could not be overlooked in campus network construction. In order to ensure the normal operation of various functions of the campus network, the security risk level of the campus network is supposed to be controlled within a reasonable range at any More >

Abstract In this paper, we propose a intrusion detection algorithm based on auto-encoder and three-way decisions (AE-3WD) for industrial control networks, aiming at the security problem of industrial control network. The ideology of deep learning is similar to the idea of intrusion detection. Deep learning is a kind of intelligent algorithm and has the ability of automatically learning. It uses self-learning to enhance the experience and dynamic classification capabilities. We use deep learning to improve the intrusion detection rate and reduce the false alarm rate through learning, a denoising AutoEncoder and three-way decisions intrusion detection method More >

Abstract Accurate electricity forecasting is the key basis for guiding the power sector to arrange operation plans and guaranteeing the profitability of electric power companies. However, with the increasing demand of enterprises and departments for data security, the phenomenon of “Isolated Data Island” becomes more and more serious, resulting in the accuracy loss of the traditional electricity prediction model. Federated learning, as an emerging artificial intelligence technology, is designed to ensure data privacy while carrying out efficient machine learning, which provides a new way to solve the problem of “Isolated Data Island” in terms of electricity… More >
