Photos: 'Hero' bot hunts criminals
Photo The robot, seen showing off its agility here, can also be fitted with heartbeat detectors as well as sensors to identify chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear materials being smuggled into the UK. [24 Jul 2008]
Photos: Waging war on the web's bad guys
Photo Data for the intelligence network floods in from more than 40,000 registered sensors and two million probes in more than 180 countries. Symantec's security operations centre analyses more than one billion logs per day, as part of a global network... [21 Jul 2008]
QoS Support in Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
White Paper Further, unique characteristics of WSNs, such as extremely resource-constrained sensors, large-scale random deployment, and novel data-centric communication protocols, pose unprecedented challenges in the area of QoS support in WSNs. [18 Jul 2008]
On Handling QoS Traffic in Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper However, the growing interest in applications that demand certain end-to-end performance guarantees and the introduction of imaging and video sensors have posed additional challenges. Many new routing and MAC layer protocols have been proposed for... [18 Jul 2008]
QoS Issues With the L-Store Distributed File System
White Paper As the flood of data associated with leading edge instruments, sensors, and simulations continues to escalate, the challenge of supporting the distributed collaborations that depend on these huge flows becomes increasingly daunting. [18 Jul 2008]
Characterizing the Performance of Network Intrusion Detection Sensors
White Paper Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are becoming an important tool for protecting critical information and infrastructure. The quality of a NIDS is described by the percentage of true attacks detected combined with the number of false alerts. [10 Jul 2008]
Adaptive Model Generation for Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper Using the same data collected by intrusion detection sensors, adaptive model generation builds detection models on the fly. The system using the DARPA Intrusion Detection Evaluation data is evaluated and shows an increase in detection performance... [10 Jul 2008]
Data Mining Methods for Network Intrusion Detection
White Paper This paper propose that the solution to this problem is the application of an ensemble of data mining techniques which can be applied to network connection data in an offline environment, augmenting existing real-time sensors. [10 Jul 2008]
Experiences in Traceroute and Available Bandwidth Change Analysis
White Paper IEPM-LITE uses ping, forward traceroutes, and ABwE sensors to monitor, in close to real-time, Round Trip Times (RTT), changes in available bandwidth and routes to and from target hosts. SLAC has been studying end-to-end WAN bandwidth availability... [10 Jul 2008]
Network & Agent Based Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper This classification depends on their Data Gathering Components (sensors), which they use to collect data to detect possible attacks against system. This paper is focused on Network Based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Agent Based Intrusion... [10 Jul 2008]
Ethernet Network-Based DAQ and Smart Sensors for the OPERA Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment
White Paper This paper proposes a data acquisition scheme for the OPERA long-baseline neutrino experiment based exclusively on Ethernet. The expected data rate allows the use of an Ethernet capable device close to the sensor. [08 Jul 2008]
Active Ethernet I/O: A New Generation in IP-Based Data Acquisition and Control
White Paper Early implementations relied on expansion cards inside a PC to attach I/O devices such as sensors, switches, alarms, etc. Network hosts typically have to poll the I/O server repeatedly in order to obtain remote sensor data over an Ethernet network. [08 Jul 2008]
PARNIDS: A Scalable Network Intrusion Detection Loadbalancer
White Paper Based on a custom hardware load balancer and cost-effective off-the-shelf sensors, the system employs novel stateless load balancing heuristics to thwart scalability limitations. Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are becoming an... [06 Jul 2008]
IDEAS: Intrusion Detection Based on Emotional Ants for Sensors
White Paper Due to the wide deployment of sensor networks recently security in sensor networks has become a hot research topic. Popular ways to secure a sensor network are by including cryptographic techniques or by safeguarding sensitive information from... [05 Jul 2008]
SIDS - A System for Enterprise-Wide Intrusion Detection
White Paper To that effect the system implements a highly scalable distributed architecture that consists of various-level entities, such as sensors, collectors and analyzers. This paper presents the design and implementation of SIDS, the Simple Intrusion... [05 Jul 2008]
