Data Centric Protection against Ransomware Attacks at the Office of the Auditor General

Abstract: In attempting to answer the question of whether the Office of the Auditor General is doing enough to protect the sensitive data in its possession, I start off by stating the current information security trends. The trends highlight an upward rise in data breaches despite the numerous traditional approaches to secure data and network resources like firewalls, antiviruses, anti-malware gateways etc. In validation a study is performed at the Office of the Auditor General. Analysis of ...

Investigating the Level of Awareness on Information Security Amongst Users at Botho University.

Abstract: The growth of technology advancement has promoted a borderless environment among users, organizations, global industry and easy access to information. The use of the internet and computer systems in a teaching environment parallel increased the number of threats in today's world. Lack of information security practices is the major cause of security breaches. Information security needs to be addressed amongst users for the protection of organizational assets. Human knowledge, attit...

Detection and Avoidance of Routing Attack in Mobile Ad-hoc Network using Intelligent Node

Abstract: The routing attacks are created in order to damage the network in Mobile Ad-hoc. Previously, Dempster-shafer theory introduced a solution for these routing attacks where it entirely works on the principle of Dempster rule with various important factors to mitigate these critical routing attacks. Previously the system contains an Intrusion detection mechanism which is used to create a message whenever the attacker attacks the network. This Intrusion detection system sends an alert m...

Malicious Attacks Detection in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks by Using SNDP Protocol

Abstract: In this research to detect the Stealthy Attacks such as misrouting, power control, identity delegation, and colluding collision. Those kinds of attacks easily launched against Multihop wireless ad hoc networks. When every the source and destination are communicate, to appear Stealthy Attacks and dropping or interrupt the packet from reaching the destination through malicious behavior node. To overcome this problem we can present a protocol called SNDP (secure neighbor discovery pro...

Insecurity of WLAN for M-Learning Implementation in Tertiary Level by DoS

Abstract: Mobility, mobile technology and mobile computing are few buzz words in all the fields. This makes human beings life easy and goes for anywhere, anytime working conditions. In educational field Networking and mobile computing are playing major role in the shift from the traditional black board teaching to contemporary E-Learning and M-Learning environment. But the major issue with the wireless network is vulnerability, denial of service and in general security compared to the wired ...

A concealed based approach for secure transmission in advanced metering infrastructure

Abstract: The smart grid has an important subsystem known as the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), responsible for measuring customer consumption of electricity. The AMI subsystem has smart meters as one of the components and they play a vital role in enabling communication between the utility provider and consumers. Smart meters can report real-time electricity consumption readings of the consumer to the utility. Securing this communication link from attacks remain very important for ...

Development of a Real-time Phishing Detection Website via a Triumvirate of Information Retrieval, Natural Language Processing. and Machine Learning Modules

Phishing attacks are a serious risk to people and businesses because they try to trick users into sending critical information by using phony emails and websites. Users remain susceptible to these assaults because sophisticated phishing websites are frequently difficult for existing preventive measures to identify and block. As a result, a reliable detection system that can recognize and stop phishing assaults is required. The goal of the research is to create a detection system that efficien...

COMPUTER HARDWARE SYSTEM DESIGN

The arithmetic/logic unit is the component of the CPU where data is held temporarily and where calculations take place. The control unit controls and interprets the execution of instructions. Most of these actions are retrievals of instructions from memory followed by movements of data or addresses from one part of the CPU to another. The control unit determines the particular instruction to be executed by reading the contents of a program counter (PC), sometimes called an instruction pointer...

Pipelining

Pipelining is one way of improving the overall processing performance of a processor. This architectural approach allows the simultaneous execution of several instructions. Pipelining is transparent to the programmer; it exploits parallelism at the instruction level by overlapping the execution process of instructions. It is analogous to an assembly line where workers perform a specific task and pass the partially completed product to the next worker. This chapter explains various types of pi...

Application of Drone in Agriculture

The world population has increases day by day and projected to reach 9 billion people by 2050, so that the agricultural consumption will also increase. There is extreme need to fulfil the food demand of each and every person. Agriculture sector is the most promising sector, dealing with the lot of problems now a day’s one of the main problems is labour unavailability for farming. Other problems or difficulties are extreme weather events, inadequate amount and inefficient application of fert...

Military Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles- A Historical Study

The following study is devoted to the phenomenon of unmanned aerial vehicles used throughout known history on the battlefield or for military purposes. The purpose of the following text is to familiarise the reader with an overview with the contemporary and historical employment of the unmanned vehicles on the battlefield. The study also aims to show that the concept of unmanned combat vehicles, also unmanned aerial combat vehicles, is far more ancient than is it is widely known. The article ...

Cyber security

Cyber security is a fast growing pace in the society today and as a result of that, its growth is becoming more and more widespread. According to the 2015 (ISC) Global Information Security Workforce Study, a shortfall of 1.8 million cybersecurity jobs will happen by 2022 cite mat 1. Allegedly, the most common reason for this fact is the lack of qualified personnel. As a consequence of this trend even in education sector, Information Technology (IT), Cyber space, Online platform, medical field...
