Setting up the Linksys EA9300 Max-Stream AC4000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router
Setting up the Linksys EA9300 Max-Stream AC4000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router Setting up the Linksys EA9300 Max-Stream AC4000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router is made easy using the Smart Setup wizard which is embedded in the router's firmware and is available even if the router does not have an internet connection or the router is on factory default settings. Before you begin: Make sure you have a working internet connection. Power on your modem and connect an ethernet cable from the modem to the internet port of the router. NOTE: If you are replacing an existing router, make sure to disconnect and remove the old one. Connect the power adapter to the router and turn it ON. Wait until the Linksys logo light is solid. Step 1: Connect a wireless computer, tablet or smartphone to the default Wi-Fi network of your router. The wireless credentials are located on a label at the bottom of the device. NOTE: If you need to set up the router using a hardwired computer, connect your computer to one of the ethernet ports at the back of the router. Step 2: Launch a supported web browser and enter “linksyssmartwifi.com” in the Address bar then press [Enter]. NOTE: You can also enter “http://192.168.1.1” or “myrouter.local”. Step 3: Check the box beside I have read and accepted the License Terms for using this software. Then click Next to proceed. NOTE: Open the link to know the license terms and other information. If you prefer to manually set up the router, click on the Manual configuration link. -

A Single Packet Authorization System for Tor Bridges
BridgeSPA: A Single Packet Authorization System for Tor Bridges by Robin Smits A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Mathematics in Computer Science Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 c Robin Smits 2012 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Tor is a network designed for low-latency anonymous communications. Tor clients form circuits through relays that are listed in a public directory, and then relay their encrypted traffic through these circuits. This indirection makes it difficult for a local adversary to determine with whom a particular Tor user is communicating. Tor may also be used to circumvent regional Internet censorship, since the final hop of a user’s connection can be in a different country. In response, some local adversaries restrict access to Tor by blocking each of the publicly listed relays. To deal with such an adversary, Tor uses bridges, which are unlisted relays that can be used as alternative entry points into the Tor network. Unfortunately, issues with Tor’s bridge implementation make it easy to discover large numbers of bridges. This makes bridges easy to block. Also, an adversary that hoards this information may use it to determine when each bridge is online over time. If a bridge operator also browses with Tor on the same machine, this information may be sufficient to deanonymize him. -
Technical Impacts of DNS Privacy and Security on Network Service Scenarios
- Technical Impacts of DNS Privacy and Security on Network Service Scenarios ATIS-I-0000079 | April 2020 Abstract The domain name system (DNS) is a key network function used to resolve domain names (e.g., atis.org) into routable addresses and other data. Most DNS signalling today is sent using protocols that do not support security provisions (e.g., cryptographic confidentiality protection and integrity protection). This may create privacy and security risks for users due to on-path nodes being able to read or modify DNS signalling. In response to these concerns, particularly for DNS privacy, new protocols have been specified that implement cryptographic DNS security. Support for these protocols is being rapidly introduced in client software (particularly web browsers) and in some DNS servers. The implementation of DNS security protocols can have a range of positive benefits, but it can also conflict with important network services that are currently widely implemented based on DNS. These services include techniques to mitigate malware and to fulfill legal obligations placed on network operators. This report describes the technical impacts of DNS security protocols in a range of network scenarios. This analysis is used to derive recommendations for deploying DNS security protocols and for further industry collaboration. The aim of these recommendations is to maximize the benefits of DNS security support while reducing problem areas. Foreword As a leading technology and solutions development organization, the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS) brings together the top global ICT companies to advance the industry’s business priorities. ATIS’ 150 member companies are currently working to address network reliability, 5G, robocall mitigation, smart cities, artificial intelligence-enabled networks, distributed ledger/blockchain technology, cybersecurity, IoT, emergency services, quality of service, billing support, operations and much more. -

Filtering and Identifying Web Activity by User Name
Wavecrest®TechBrief Filtering and Identifying Web Activity by User Name www.wavecrest.net When a company implements a Web filtering and monitoring solution, it typically wants to filter and monitor the Web traffic flowing through its network by user name versus IP address for various reasons. Some of these reasons include curtailing casual surfing, protecting against security threats, and conserving bandwidth. Furthermore, a company’s Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is usually based on user names and/or groups of user names. Therefore, the application that enforces and monitors the company’s AUP needs to identify Web activity by user name. IP addresses can be dynamic, and sometimes more than one employee can log on to a computer, and hence, more than one user name will be using the same IP address. Many an IT administrator is tasked with ensuring that the company’s employees are going through the proxy that is in place, so that Web activity can be monitored by user name. To get user names and authenticate users, IT administrators can choose any of the proxy configuration options and authentication methods described below. Depending on the company’s preference, one proxy configuration option may be more favorable than the other. Here, we will discuss applying browser settings manually, pushing out group policies using Active Directory (AD), using a captive portal, and installing client software. We will also touch on the different ways that you can authenticate your Internet users using our CyBlock products. Applying Browser Settings Manually Applying browser settings involves identifying a proxy server which is required if you need user names. -
