Security management for mobile ad hoc network of networks (MANoN

Mobile Ad hoc Network of Networks (MANoN) are a group of large autonomous wireless nodes communicating on a peer-to-peer basis in a heterogeneous environment with no pre-defined infrastructure. In fact, each node by itself is an ad hoc network with its own management. MANoNs are evolvable systems, which mean each ad hoc network has the ability to perform separately under its own policies and management without affecting the main system; therefore, new ad hoc networks can emerge and disconnect from the MANoN without conflicting with the policies of other networks. The unique characteristics of MANoN makes such networks highly vulnerable to security attacks compared with wired networks or even normal mobile ad hoc networks. This thesis presents a novel security-management system based upon the Recommendation ITU-T M.3400, which is used to evaluate, report on the behaviour of our MANoN and then support complex services our system might need to accomplish. Our security management will concentrate on three essential components: Security Administration, Prevention and Detection and Containment and Recovery. In any system, providing one of those components is a problem; consequently, dealing with an infrastructure-less MANoN will be a dilemma, yet we approached each set group of these essentials independently, providing unusual solutions for each one of them but concentrating mainly on the prevention and detection category. The contributions of this research are threefold. First, we defined MANoN Security Architecture based upon the ITU-T Recommendations: X.800 and X.805. This security architecture provides a comprehensive, end-to-end security solution for MANoN that could be applied to every wireless network that satisfies a similar scenario, using such networks in order to predict, detect and correct security vulnerabilities. The security architecture identifies the security requirements needed, their objectives and the means by which they could be applied to every part of the MANoN, taking into consideration the different security attacks it could face. Second, realising the prevention component by implementing some of the security requirements identified in the Security Architecture, such as authentication, authorisation, availability, data confidentiality, data integrity and non-repudiation has been proposed by means of defining a novel Security Access Control Mechanism based on Threshold Cryptography Digital Certificates in MANoN. Network Simulator (NS-2) is a real network environment simulator, which is used to test the performance of the proposed security mechanism and demonstrate its effectiveness. Our ACM-MANoN results provide a fully distributed security protocol that provides a high level of secure, available, scalable, flexible and efficient management services for MANoN. The third contribution is realising the detection component, which is represented by providing a Behavioural Detection Mechanism based on nodes behavioural observation engaged with policies. This behaviour mechanism will be used to detect malicious nodes acting to bring the system down. This approach has been validated using an attacks case study in an unknown military environment to cope with misbehaving nodes

Cyber Law and Espionage Law as Communicating Vessels

Professor Lubin\u27s contribution is Cyber Law and Espionage Law as Communicating Vessels, pp. 203-225. Existing legal literature would have us assume that espionage operations and “below-the-threshold” cyber operations are doctrinally distinct. Whereas one is subject to the scant, amorphous, and under-developed legal framework of espionage law, the other is subject to an emerging, ever-evolving body of legal rules, known cumulatively as cyber law. This dichotomy, however, is erroneous and misleading. In practice, espionage and cyber law function as communicating vessels, and so are better conceived as two elements of a complex system, Information Warfare (IW). This paper therefore first draws attention to the similarities between the practices – the fact that the actors, technologies, and targets are interchangeable, as are the knee-jerk legal reactions of the international community. In light of the convergence between peacetime Low-Intensity Cyber Operations (LICOs) and peacetime Espionage Operations (EOs) the two should be subjected to a single regulatory framework, one which recognizes the role intelligence plays in our public world order and which adopts a contextual and consequential method of inquiry. The paper proceeds in the following order: Part 2 provides a descriptive account of the unique symbiotic relationship between espionage and cyber law, and further explains the reasons for this dynamic. Part 3 places the discussion surrounding this relationship within the broader discourse on IW, making the claim that the convergence between EOs and LICOs, as described in Part 2, could further be explained by an even larger convergence across all the various elements of the informational environment. Parts 2 and 3 then serve as the backdrop for Part 4, which details the attempt of the drafters of the Tallinn Manual 2.0 to compartmentalize espionage law and cyber law, and the deficits of their approach. The paper concludes by proposing an alternative holistic understanding of espionage law, grounded in general principles of law, which is more practically transferable to the cyber realmhttps://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/facbooks/1220/thumbnail.jp

Jones, Barry Owen (1932– ). Australian politician, writer and lawyer, born in Geelong. Educated at Melbourne University, he was a public servant, high school teacher, television and radio performer, university lecturer and lawyer before serving as a Labor MP in the Victorian Parliament 1972–77 and the Australian House of Representatives 1977–98. He took a leading role in reviving the Australian film industry, abolishing the death penalty in Australia, and was the first politician to raise public awareness of global warming, the ‘post-industrial’ society, the IT revolution, biotechnology, the rise of ‘the Third Age’ and the need to preserve Antarctica as a wilderness. In the Hawke Government, he was Minister for Science 1983–90, Prices and Consumer Affairs 1987, Small Business 1987–90 and Customs 1988–90. He became a member of the Executive Board of UNESCO, Paris 1991–95 and National President of the Australian Labor Party 1992–2000, 2005–06. He was Deputy Chairman of the Constitutional Convention 1998. His books include Decades of Decision 1860– (1965), Joseph II (1968), Age of Apocalypse (1975), and he edited The Penalty is Death (1968). Sleepers, Wake!: Technology and the Future of Work was published by Oxford University Press in 1982, became a bestseller and has been translated into Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Swedish and braille. The fourth edition was published in 1995. Knowledge Courage Leadership, a collection of speeches and essays, appeared in 2016. He received a DSc for his services to science in 1988 and a DLitt in 1993 for his work on information theory. Elected FTSE (1992), FAHA (1993), FAA (1996) and FASSA (2003), he is the only person to have become a Fellow of four of Australia’s five learned Academies. Awarded an AO in 1993, named as one of Australia’s 100 ‘living national treasures’ in 1998, he was elected a Visiting Fellow Commoner of Trinity College, Cambridge in 1999.
