Chapters

Chapter 1

Review of Security in VANETs and MANETs (pages 1-27)

Mai Abu Baqar, Hamza Aldabbas, Tariq Alwadan, Mai Alfawair, Helge Janicke

Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) and Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) are autonomous systems connected by wireless communication on a peer-to-peer basis. They are self-organized, self-configured, and self-controlled infrastructure-less...

Chapter 2

Trends in Crime Toolkit Development (pages 28-43)

Ansam Khraisat, Ammar Alazab, Michael Hobbs, Jemal H. Abawajy, Ahmad Azab

Cybercriminals continue to target online users of banks. They are improving their techniques and using high levels of skill in their attacks. Their continued search for different methods to commit crime makes the existing protection...

Chapter 3

Synthesis of Supervised Approaches for Intrusion Detection Systems (pages 44-57)

Ahmed Chaouki Lokbani, Ahmed Lehireche, Reda Mohamed Hamou, Abdelmalek Amine

Given the increasing number of users of computer systems and networks, it is difficult to know the profile of the latter, and therefore, intrusion has become a highly prized area of network security. In this chapter, to address the...

Chapter 4

Applying Game Theory in Securing Wireless Sensor Networks by Minimizing Battery Usage (pages 58-73)

Mehran Asadi, Afrand Agah, Christopher Zimmerman

In this chapter, the authors examine the impacts of applying game theory on the network throughput, network voltage loss, and accuracy of malicious node detection in wireless sensor networks. Nodes in a wireless sensor network use...

Chapter 5

Short-Hops vs. Long-Hops: Energy-Efficiency Analysis in Wireless Sensor Networks (pages 74-83)

Mekkaoui Kheireddine, Rahmoun Abdellatif

Sensor networks are composed of miniaturized wireless sensor nodes with limited capacity and energy source. Generally, these sensor networks are used, in many applications, to monitor inaccessible environments (battlefields, volcano...

Chapter 6

HTTPV: Verifiable HTTP across an Untrusted Channel (pages 84-95)

Subrata Acharya

There is a need to be able to verify plaintext HTTP content transfers. Common sense dictates authentication and sensitive content should always be protected by SSL/HTTPS, but there is still great exploitation potential in the...

Chapter 7

Amelioration of Anonymity Modus Operandi for Privacy Preserving Data Publishing (pages 96-107)

J. Indumathi

The scientific tumultuous intonation has swept our feet's, of its balance and at the same time wheedled us to reach the take-off arena from where we can march equipped and outfitted into the subsequent century with confidence &...

Chapter 8

Web Service Security: Authentication and Authorization Technologies (pages 108-128)

Elena M. Torroglosa García, Gabriel López Millán

The high adoption in daily lives of services offered by the Web 2.0 has opened a wide field for the proliferation of new Web-based services and applications. Social networks, as the main exponent of this new generation of services...

Chapter 9

Identity-Based Encryption Protocol for Privacy and Authentication in Wireless Networks (pages 129-155)

Clifton Mulkey, Dulal C. Kar

Wireless networks are inherently insecure due to the fact that information on the network can be passively retrieved by an eavesdropper using off-the-shelf network hardware and free software applications. The most common solution for...

Chapter 10

Distinguishing Human Users from Bots: Methods and Assessments (pages 156-173)

M. Hassan Shirali-Shahreza, Sajad Shirali-Shahreza

Human Interactive Proof (HIP) systems have been introduced to distinguish between various groups of users. CAPTCHA methods are one of the important branches of HIP systems, which are used to distinguish between human users and...

Chapter 11

Network Security: Attacks and Controls (pages 174-203)

Natarajan Meghanathan

The focus of this chapter is two-fold: It first presents the classical network attacks (such as Session Hijacking, Man-in-the-Middle attack, DNS attacks, Distributed Denial of Service attacks, and other miscellaneous attacks), which...

Chapter 12

Botnets: Analysis, Detection, and Mitigation (pages 204-223)

Hamad Binsalleeh

Recent malicious attempts are intended to get financial benefits through a large pool of compromised hosts, which are called software robots or simply bots. A group of bots, referred to as a botnet, is remotely controllable by a...

Chapter 13

Formal Reliability Analysis of Engineering Systems (pages 224-238)

Naeem Abbasi, Osman Hasan, Sofiène Tahar

Reliability analysis of engineering systems has traditionally been done using computationally expensive computer simulations that cannot attain 100% accuracy due to their inherent limitations. The authors conduct a formal reliability...

Chapter 14

Adaptive Intrusion Detection Systems: The Next Generation of IDSs (pages 239-269)

Hassina Bensefia, Nassira Ghoualmi-Zine

This chapter deals with a challenging issue in intrusion detection research field, which is IDS adaptability. First, it introduces the intrusion detection concepts, then presents with details the two existing generations of IDSs and...
