Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Web technologies have brought about a massive increase in online businesses, but security has significantly lagged behind. We and others argue that governments can and should play a major role in providing a reliable and secure environment for online businesses because they have a major stake in growing the economy. Our finding from previous research indicates that security is usually overlooked; it comes as an afterthought or is perceived from a purely technical dimension. This study attempts to describe and analyze the current role of the government of Jordan in facilitating the security of e-business. Our starting premise is that governments should recognize the full range of socio-technical implications that security may have on the adoption of e-business. This can be achieved by understanding the real security needs and concerns of the various stakeholders at the different e-business stages and then aligning them to its policy and plans. Moreover, we argue that in order for the government to be an effective partner in developing a secure e-business environment, legislating laws and regulations is insufficient; instead, governments must increase security education and awareness, ensure compliance with security standards and regulations, and protect the country’s critical ICT infrastructure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day, people interact with numerous computer systems, networks, and services that require the exchange of sensitive data. However, the Internet is a highly distributed system operated by many different entities and as such should not be trusted by end users. Users, whether consumers or businesses, retain no control over how their information is routed among the many networks that comprise the Internet. Therefore, there is a strong need for cryptographic protocols to authenticate, verify trust, and establish a secure channel for exchanging data. This chapter presents a series of projects and demonstrations for systems and networking professionals who want to increase their comprehension of security concepts and protocols. The material presented here is derived from existing courses taught by the authors in the areas of cryptography, network security, and wireless security.

Book excerpt: This chapter discusses the problematic intersection of risk management, mission assurance, security, and information systems through the illustrative example of the United States (US) Department of Defense (DoD). A concise history of systems security engineering (SSE) is provided with emphasis on recent revitalization efforts. Next, a review of established and emerging SSE methods, processes, and tools (MPT) frequently used to assess and manage critical shortfalls in the development and fielding of complex information-centric systems is provided. From this review, a common theme emerges—the need for a holistic multidisciplinary approach that addresses people, processes, and technologies to manage system complexity, while providing cost-effective security solutions through the use of established systems engineering techniques. Multiple cases and scenarios that promote the discovery and shared understanding of security solutions for complex systems by those trained in the art and science of systems engineering, information security, and risk management are demonstrated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, cybersecurity makes headlines across the media and in companies, blogs, social networks, among other places. The Internet is a wild cyberspace, an arena for commercialization, consumerism, business, and leisure, to name a few activities. Networks, populations, and nations around the world, now interconnected through the Internet, rely on it for their daily lives. But some Internet users have learned to take advantage of vulnerable systems and of Internet technologies for their own good, sending out spam, phishing, data breaches, botnets, and other threats. An underground criminal network has emerged, creating complex malware kits for several purposes. “Hacktivism” has become a popular term with many supporters worldwide, but cyberwarfare is now on the rise, gaining more and more attention from nation-states. This chapter provides a quick overview of these topics, discussing them in a timely manner, referencing key events from the past while focusing on the present day.

Book excerpt: In this chapter we propose a method for the extraction of data from network flow and a contextual separation of partial connections, using a set of network metrics that create a signature defining the connection behavior. We begin with defining the input dataset of captured communication and the process of extracting metrics from separated connections. Then we define the set of metrics included in the final behavioral signature. The second part of the chapter describes experiments performed with a state-of-the-art set of network metrics, with comparison to our proposed experimental set. The chapter concludes with the results of our experiments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In wireless ad hoc networks, most of the authentication protocols assume a single source of trust. However, in the presence of multiple trust sources (called source group in this chapter), it becomes difficult to design resource- (or energy-) efficient authentication protocols, especially for multicast/broadcast services, utilizing multiple trust sources at the same time. Some traditional authentication approaches may be extended and used for this purpose. However, the communication overhead, for example, may increase significantly in proportion to the number of trust sources. In this chapter, we propose a new scheme named as Multi-Source Authentication with Split-Join One-Way Key Chain (SOKC). In this new technique, the communication overhead is small and constant, and the memory requirement at the verifier node is also minimal. The source group node needs to store n keys, where n represents the key chain length, which may be a reasonable requirement considering that the trust sources usually have more resources compared to other regular node(s) in the network (e.g., base stations in wireless sensor networks).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is a revolutionary security technology that exploits the laws of quantum mechanics to achieve information-theoretic secure key exchange. QKD enables two parties to “grow” a shared secret key without placing any limits on an adversary’s computational power. QKD is unique because it exploits the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics to detect the presence of any third-party eavesdropping on the key exchange. In this chapter, we present a historical survey of the development of QKD systems and their system architectures, identify commercially available QKD system solutions, discuss emerging trends in the research of future QKD technologies, and present a use case that demonstrates the utility of QKD technology in a real-world military scenario.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Security assurance is the guarantee provided with regard to access control, security privileges, and enforcement over time as users interact with an application. For a big-data application that shares and exchanges information from multiple sources in different formats, security assurance must reconcile local security capabilities to meet stakeholder needs. This chapter presents a role-based access control (RBAC) approach to modeling a global security policy and generating an enforcement mechanism for a big-data application by integrating the local policies of the sources, which are assumed to communicate via XML, the de facto standard for information sharing/exchange. Towards this goal, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is extended to define new diagrams to capture XML for RBAC security and for policy modeling. To illustrate, we use a big-data application in law enforcement for motor vehicle crashes, showing how global security can be achieved in a repository that links different crash data repositories from multiple sources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter, we discuss the threats, challenges, and guidance associated with securing an organization’s core IT infrastructure at the network, host, and application levels in the cloud. According to the best knowledge of the authors, up to now, there are no research with this perspective on cloud security in the literature. This chapter represents our first discussion of this infrastructure security in the context of SPI service delivery models (SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS). Non-information security professionals are cautioned not to simply equate infrastructure security to infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) security. Although infrastructure security is more highly relevant to customers of IaaS, similar consideration should be given to providers’ platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and software-as-a-service (SaaS) environments, since they have ramifications to customer threat, risk, and compliance management. Another dimension is the cloud business model (public, private, and hybrid clouds), which is orthogonal to the SPI service delivery model; what we highlight is the relevance of discussion points as they apply to public and private clouds. When discussing public clouds, the scope of infrastructure security is limited to the layers of infrastructure that move beyond the organization’s control and into the hands of service providers (i.e., when responsibility to a secure infrastructure is transferred to the cloud service provider [CSP], based on the SPI delivery model). Information in this chapter is critical for customers in gaining an understanding of what security a CSP provides and what security the customer is responsible for providing. This chapter discusses conceptual issues, basic requirements, and practical suggestions for designing dynamically configured security infrastructure provisioned on demand as part of the cloud-based infrastructure. We end this chapter by describing general-use cases for provisioning cloud infrastructure that provide bases for defining security infrastructure requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter we present a novel approach for securing financial XML transactions using an effective and intelligent fuzzy classification technique. Our approach defines the process of classifying XML content using a set of fuzzy variables. Upon fuzzy classification phase, a unique value is assigned to a defined attribute named "ImportanceLevel." Assigned value indicates the data sensitivity for each XML tag. The model also defines the process of securing classified financial XML message content by performing element-wise XML encryption on selected parts defined in fuzzy classification phase. Element-wise encryption is performed using symmetric encryption using AES algorithm with different key sizes. A key size of 128-bit is being used on tags classified with "Medium" importance level; a key size of 256-bit is being used on tags classified with "High" importance level. An implementation has been performed on a real-life environment using an online banking system to demonstrate system efficiency. Our experimental results verified tangible enhancements in encryption efficiency, processing-time reduction, and resulting XML message sizes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless physical layer security approaches can prevent eavesdropping without upper layer data encryption. However, such techniques are hampered by time-varying wireless channel conditions and they are typically feasible only when the legitimate partners in the Wyner’s wire-tap channel model have an advantage over the source-eavesdropper channels. Node cooperation is an effective strategy to overcome this challenge and enhance the performance of secure wireless communications. This chapter addresses secure wireless communications of a source-destination pair with the help of multiple cooperating amplify-and-forward relays in the presence of one or more eavesdroppers. The role of channel fading is characterized in terms of average (ergodic) secure communication rates. Overall, this work establishes the utility of node cooperation for improving secure wireless communications and provides a unified analytical framework for assessing the ergodic secrecy rates of cooperative amplify-and-forward relay networks in a generalized fading environment with independent but non-identically distributed channel fading statistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lack of security is a constant concern in open distributed systems. Because of this problem, many tools for evaluating vulnerabilities of networks, as well as for their protection, are being developed and largely deployed; for example, techniques for encryption, antivirus, firewall, and IDSs (Intrusion Detection Systems). Among these, there are IDSs that are increasingly conceived, designed, and implemented. Currently, IDSs are created using software agents. Although IDSs can provide intrusion detection and countermeasures against threats, they are subjected to attacks. Thus, it is necessary to ensure security for IDSs. This chapter proposes a framework for providing self-security, self-reliability of message exchange, self-reliability of components, and self-integrity for IDSs based on agents. The proposed solution is implemented as an extension of the IDS-NIDIA (Network Intrusion Detection System Based on Intelligent Agents), whose architecture has an intelligent agent society that communicates in a cooperative way in a distributed environment. Some tests show the applicability of the proposed solution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current mechanism implemented for Web session management implies exchanging session cookies between a Web application client (usually a browser) and a Web application server. Besides having privacy issues, the security of Web sessions can be affected by various reasons related to cookies. There are several vulnerabilities that threaten a Web application specifically related to cookies: theft, tampering, and/or forgery. Any of these vulnerabilities may favor session theft and/or unauthorized access using the identity of another user in the system. In this chapter, we present an alternative technique for management of Web sessions, where no session cookies are sent to clients while maintaining backward compatibility. As a result, the proposed technique is shown to avoid several specific vulnerabilities that affect the security of Web application sessions and users. The proposed mechanism works transparently for Web applications, and a proof of concept was successfully tested with Web applications based on different languages such as Php, Perl, Ruby, and Python.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter we state that metrics and indicators are key, reusable organizational assets for providing suitable data and information for analyzing, recommending, and ultimately making decisions. In a nutshell, the metric represents the specification of a measurement process that transforms an entity attribute (i.e., the input; such as a security property) into a measure (i.e., the output, which is data), and the (elementary) indicator is the specification of an evaluation process, which has as input a metric’s measure and produces an indicator value (i.e., information). There is abundant literature on ICT security and risk assessment, but very often basic issues such as why, what, how, when, who, and where to measure and evaluate are weakly intertwined and specified. One hypothesis in our research is that, without appropriate recorded metadata of information needs, attributes, metrics, and indicators, it is difficult to ensure that measure and indicator values are repeatable and consistently comparable among an organization’s measurement and evaluation (M&E) projects. We show the added value of metrics and indicators as informational resources for M&E processes, illustrating a couple of them from a system security practical case.
