IP Spoofing: An Introduction
IP spoofing is one of the most common forms of on-line camouflage. In IP spoofing, an attacker gains unauthorized access to a computer or a network by making it appear that a malicious message has come from a trusted machine by "spoofing" the IP address of that machine. This paper...

A Secure Control Framework for Resource-Limited Adversaries
Cyber-secure networked control is modeled, analyzed, and experimentally illustrated in this paper. An attack space defined by the adversary's system knowledge, disclosure, and disruption resources is introduced. Adversaries constrained by these resources are modeled for networked control system architecture. It is shown that attack scenarios corresponding to denial-of-service, replay, zero-dynamics,...

Efficient Computations of a Security Index for False Data Attacks in Power Networks
The resilience of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems for electric power networks for certain cyber-attacks are considered. The authors analyze the vulnerability of the measurement system to false data attack on communicated measurements. The vulnerability analysis problem is shown to be NP-hard, meaning that unless P=NP there is...

A Hybrid Artificial Immune System and Self Organising Map for Network Intrusion Detection
Network intrusion detection is the problem of detecting unauthorized use of, or access to, computer systems over a network. Two broad approaches exist to tackle this problem: anomaly detection and misuse detection. An anomaly detection system is trained only on examples of normal connections, and thus has the potential to...
