Discussion and Research on Information Security Attack and Defense Platform Construction in Universities Based on Cloud Computing and Virtualization

This paper puts forward the plan on constructing information security attack and defense platform based on cloud computing and virtualization, provides the hardware topology structure of the platform and technical framework of the system and the experimental process and technical principle of the platform. The experiment platform can provide more than 20 attack classes. Using the virtualization technology can build hypothesized target of various types in the laboratory and diversified network structure to carry out attack and defense experiment.

An Overview of General Theory of Security

Cyber security lacks comprehensive theoretical guidance. General security theory, as a set of basic security theory concepts, is intended to guide cyber security and all the other security work. The general theory of security aims to unify the main branches of cyber security and establish a unified basic theory. This paper proposal an overview on the general theory of security, which is devoted to constructing a comprehensive model of network security. The hierarchical structure of the meridian-collateral tree is described. Shannon information theory is employed to build a cyberspace security model. Some central concepts of security, i.e., the attack and defense, are discussed and several general theorems on security are presented.

Key technologies of new malicious code developments and defensive measures in communication networks

This article is focused on analyzing the key technologies of new malicious code and corresponding defensive measures in the large-scale communication networks. Based on description of the concepts and development of the malicious code, the article introduces the anti-analysis technology, splitting and inserting technology, hiding technology, polymorph virus technology, and auto production technology of the malicious code trends with intelligence, diversity and integration. Following that, it summarizes the security vulnerabilities of communication networks from four related layers aspects, according to the mechanisms of malicious code in the communication networks. Finally, it proposes rapid response disposition of malicious code attacks from four correlated steps： building up the network node monitoring system, suspicious code feature automation analysis and extraction, rapid active malicious code response technique for unknown malicious code, and malicious code attack immunity technique. As a result, it actively defenses against the unknown malicious code attacks and enhances the security performance of communication networks.
