Since it is impossible to obtain the specific credit data among banks, this paper estimates the inter-bank lending matrix based on the partial information of banks. Thus, directed network models of the Chinese inter-bank market are constructed by using the threshold method. The network efficiency measures and the effects of random attacks and selective attacks on the global efficiency of the inter-bank network are analyzed based on the network models of the inter-bank market. Empirical results suggest that the efficiency measures are sensitive to the threshold, and that the global efficiency is little affected by random attacks, while it is highly sensitive to selective attacks. Properties such as inter-bank market network efficiency would be useful for risk management and stability of the inter-bank market.展开更多

The simplicity of the mechanism lies in its statelessness and low computation overhead, which makes the detection mechanism itself immune to flooding-attacks. The SYN-flooding, as an instance of flooding-attack, is used to illustrate the anomaly detection mechanism. The mechanism applies an exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) method to detect the abrupt net flow and applies a symmetry analysis method to detect the anomaly activity of the network flow. Experiment shows that the mechanism has high detection accuracy and low detection latency.展开更多

Traditionally, it is static mappings between the control plane and data plane. Adversaries have plenty of time to exploit the controller's vulnerabilities and launch attacks wisely. We tend to believe that dynamically altering such static mappings is a promising approach to alleviate this issue, since a moving target is difficult to be compromised even by skilled adversaries. It is critical to determine the right time to conduct scheduling and to balance the overhead afforded and the security levels guaranteed. Little previous work has been done to investigate the economical time in dynamic-scheduling controllers. In this paper, we take the first step to both theoretically and experimentally study the scheduling-timing problem in dynamic control plane. We model this problem as a renewal reward process and propose an optimal algorithm in deciding the right time to schedule with the objective of minimizing the long-term loss rate. In our experiments, simulations based on real network attack datasets are conducted and we demonstrate that our proposed algorithm outperforms given scheduling schemes.展开更多

People seldom studied the costs of those security schemes respectively and for some security methods designed and adopted beforehand, their effects are often investigated one by one. In fact, when facing certain attacks, different methods would respond individually and result in waste of resources. Making use of the cost management idea, we analyze the costs of security measures in mobile ad hoc networks and introduce a security framework based on security mechanisms cost management. Under the framework, the network system's own tasks can be finished in time and the whole network's security costs can be decreased. We discuss the process of security costs computation at each mobile node and in certain nodes groups. To show how to use the proposed security framework in certain applications, we give examples of DoS attacks and costs computation of defense methods. The results showed that more secure environment can be achieved based on the security framework in mobile ad hoc networks.展开更多

Much research has been done for it by now, however, it is always concentrated in the behaviors of the network and can not deal with the problem exactly. In this paper, we start from the security of the protocol, then we propose a novel theory for security protocol analysis of Denial of Service in order to deal with the DoS attack. We first introduce the conception of weighted graph to extend the strand space model, then we extend the penetrator model and define the goal of anti-DoS attack through the conception of the DoS-stop protocol, finally we propose two kinds of DoS test model and erect the novel formal theory for security protocol analysis of Denial of Service. Our new formal theory is applied in two example protocols. It is proved that the Internet key exchange (IKE) easily suffers from the DoS attacks, and the efficient DoS- resistant secure key exchange protocol (JFK) is resistant against DoS attack for the server, respectively.展开更多

Numerical results have shown that the duplication-divergence network with larger retention probability a is more robust against target attack relatively. Furthermore, duplication-divergence network is broken down more quickly than its counterpart BA network under target attack. Such result is consistent with the fact of WWW and Internet networks under target attack. So duplication-divergence model is a more realistic one for us to investigate the characteristics of the world wide web in future. We also observe that the exponent γ of degree distribution and average degree are important parameters of networks, reflecting the performance of networks under target attack. Our results are helpful to the research on the security of network.展开更多

Consequently, the man-in-the-middle attacks can make the two protocols fail to provide perfect forward secrecy. Secondly, by adding corresponding signatures in the receiving phases of the two protocols, two corresponding improvements on the protocols are proposed to overcome the man-in-the-middle attacks on the two protocols and make them provide perfect forward secrecy. Moreover, the two improved protocols can retain all the merits of the former protocols.展开更多
