  • Identifying Threats Associated with Man-In-The-Middle Attacks During Communication Between a Mobile Device and the Back End Server in Mobile Banking Applications
    IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering (IOSR-JCE) e-ISSN: 2278-0661, p- ISSN: 2278-8727Volume 16, Issue 2, Ver. IX (Mar-Apr. 2014), PP 35-42 www.iosrjournals.org Identifying Threats Associated With Man-In-The-Middle Attacks during Communication between a Mobile Device and the Back End Server in Mobile Banking Applications Anthony Luvanda1,*Dr Stephen Kimani1 Dr Micheal Kimwele1 1. School of Computing and Information Technology, Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, PO Box 62000-00200 Nairobi Kenya Abstract: Mobile banking, sometimes referred to as M-Banking, Mbanking or SMS Banking, is a term used for performing balance checks, account transactions, payments, credit applications and other banking transactions through a mobile device such as a mobile phone or Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). Mobile banking has until recently most often been performed via SMS or the Mobile Web. Apple's initial success with iPhone and the rapid growth of phones based on Google's Android (operating system) have led to increasing use of special client programs, called apps, downloaded to the mobile device hence increasing the number of banking applications that can be made available on mobile phones . This in turn has increased the popularity of mobile device use in regards to personal banking activities. Due to the characteristics of wireless medium, limited protection of the nodes, nature of connectivity and lack of centralized managing point, wireless networks tend to be highly vulnerable and more often than not they become subjects of attack. This paper proposes to identify potential threats associated with communication between a mobile device and the back end server in mobile banking applications.

  • A Case Study in DNS Poisoning
    A wrinkle in time: A case study in DNS poisoning Harel Berger Amit Z. Dvir Moti Geva Abstract—The Domain Name System (DNS) provides a trans- lation between readable domain names and IP addresses. The DNS is a key infrastructure component of the Internet and a prime target for a variety of attacks. One of the most significant threat to the DNS’s wellbeing is a DNS poisoning attack, in which the DNS responses are maliciously replaced, or poisoned, by an attacker. To identify this kind of attack, we start by an analysis of different kinds of response times. We present an analysis of typical and atypical response times, while differentiating between the different levels of DNS servers’ response times, from root servers down to internal caching servers. We successfully identify empirical DNS poisoning attacks based on a novel method for DNS response timing analysis. We then present a system we developed to validate our technique that does not require any changes to the DNS protocol or any existing network equipment. Our validation system tested data from different architectures including LAN and cloud environments and real data from an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Our method and system differ from most other DNS poisoning detection methods and achieved high detection rates exceeding 99%. These findings suggest that when used in conjunction with other methods, they can considerably enhance the accuracy of these methods. I. INTRODUCTION Fig. 1. DNS hierarchy example The Domain Name System (DNS) [1], [2] is one of the best known protocols in the Internet.

  • A Study on Advanced Botnets Detection in Various Computing Systems Using Machine Learning Techniques
    SJIF Impact Factor: 7.001| ISI I.F.Value:1.241| Journal DOI: 10.36713/epra2016 ISSN: 2455-7838(Online) EPRA International Journal of Research and Development (IJRD) Volume: 5 | Issue: 12 | December 2020 - Peer Reviewed Journal A STUDY ON ADVANCED BOTNETS DETECTION IN VARIOUS COMPUTING SYSTEMS USING MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES K. Vamshi Krishna Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Narasaraopet Engineering College, Narasaraopet, Guntur, India Article DOI: https://doi.org/10.36713/epra5902 ABSTRACT Due to the rapid growth and use of Emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Internet of Things, Information industry became so popular, meanwhile these Emerging technologies have brought lot of impact on human lives and internet network equipment has increased. This increment of internet network equipment may bring some serious security issues. A botnet is a number of Internet-connected devices, each of which is running one or more bots.The main aim of botnet is to infect connected devices and use their resource for automated tasks and generally they remain hidden. Botnets can be used to perform Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks, steal data, send spam, and allow the attacker to access the device and its connection. In this paper we are going to address the advanced Botnet detection techniques using Machine Learning. Traditional botnet detection uses manual analysis and blacklist, and the efficiency is very low. Applying machine learning to batch automatic detection of botnets can greatly improve the efficiency of detection. Using machine learning to detect botnets, we need to collect network traffic and extract traffic characteristics, and then use X-Means, SVM algorithm to detect botnets.

    IT WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL Search Engines and Cyber Hygiene Exercise - 11 Aim: Working of search engine, Awareness of various threats on Internet, types of attacks and how to overcome. Installation of antivirus software, configuration of personal firewall and Windows update on computers. 11.1 Introduction Search Engine refers to a huge database of internet resources such as web pages, newsgroups, programs, images etc. It helps to locate information on World Wide Web. User can search for any information by passing query in form of keywords or phrase. It then searches for relevant information in its database and return to the user. Fig. 1. Windows explorer 198 Prepared by: APPROVED BY : Ms.K.NIRMALA Dr.K.RAMANI Mr.V.S.V.S.S.S.M.CHAKRADHAR HOD, IT IT WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL Search Engine Components Generally there are three basic components of a search engine as listed below: 1. Web Crawler 2. Database 3. Search Interfaces Web crawler It is also known as spider or bots. It is a software component that traverses the web to gather information. Database All the information on the web is stored in database. It consists of huge web resources. Search Interfaces This component is an interface between user and the database. It helps the user to search through the database. Search Engine Working Web crawler, database and the search interface are the major component of a search engine that actually makes search engine to work. Search engines make use of Boolean expression AND, OR, NOT to restrict and widen the results of a search. Following are the steps that are performed by the search engine: The search engine looks for the keyword in the index for predefined database instead of going directly to the web to search for the keyword.

To give my reader a full understanding of the issue, I will begin by explaining the history of the Internet, give a definition of both cyber-crime and cyber-warfare, and then explain how they have impacted the Internet. I will also give examples of a few Chinese hacker groups, and what kind of attacks they have successfully carried out. Then I will talk about how recent attacks have become more sophisticated which are capable of causing more damage. I would also like to discuss how the cyber-warfare has impacted Chinese-US relations, and how it has an impact on the economic ties. Because of the currently capability and potential threat, I will explain why cyber-crime and cyber-warfare are so important to monitor because of the potential damage current and future attacks can cause. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ......................................................................................... iii Chapter 1 Introduction ................................................................................................. 1 History of the Internet ...................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 2 Cyber-crime – Functions and Capabilities .................................................
