A Modular Approach To Intrusion Detection in Homogenous Wireless NetworkIOSR Journals
This document discusses a modular approach to intrusion detection in homogeneous wireless networks. It begins by introducing wireless networks and the need for intrusion detection systems (IDS) due to security vulnerabilities. It then discusses different types of IDS, including signature-based detection that identifies known attacks, and anomaly-based detection that identifies deviations from normal behavior but can result in high false positives. The document proposes a modular approach combining advantages of signature-based and anomaly-based detection for high detection rates and low false positives. Requirements for IDS in wireless networks are also outlined.

IRJET- Research Paper Firewall- Prevent Unauthorized UsersIRJET Journal
The document discusses firewall technologies that are commonly used to prevent unauthorized access to private networks connected to the Internet. It describes several types of firewalls including packet filtering firewalls, application gateways, circuit-level gateways, and proxy servers. While firewalls provide important security, they have some limitations such as not being able to fully protect against virus attacks or insider threats from authorized users. Therefore, using different firewall technologies together can help develop a more secure network.
DEPLOYMENT OF INTRUSION PREVENTION SYSTEM ON MULTI-CORE PROCESSOR BASED SECUR...IJCNCJournal
After tightening up network perimeter for dealing with external threats, organizations have woken up to the
threats from inside Local Area Networks (LAN) over the past several years. It is thus important to design
and implement LAN security strategies in order to secure assets on LAN by filtering traffic and thereby
protecting them from malicious access and insider attacks. Banking Financial Services and Insurance
(BFSI) industry is one such segment that faces increased risks and security challenges. The typical
architecture of this segment includes several thousands of users connecting from various branches over
Wide Area Network (WAN) links crossing national and international boundaries with varying network
speed to access data center resources. The objective of this work is to deploy LAN security solution to
protect the data center located at headquarters from the end user machines. A LAN security solution should
ideally provide Network Access Control (NAC) along with cleaning (securing) the traffic going through it.
Traffic cleaning itself includes various features like firewall, intrusion detection/prevention, traffic anomaly
detection, validation of asset ownership etc. LANenforcer (LE) is a device deployed in front of the data
center such that the traffic from end-user machines necessarily passes through it so that it can enforce
security. The goal of this system is to enhance the security features of a LANenforcer security system with
Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) to enable it to detect and prevent malicious network activities. IPS is
plugged into the packet path based on the configuration in such a way that the entire traffic passes through
the IPS on LE.
As the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system are deployed in infrastructures which are critical to the survival of a nation, they have emerged as a potential terrain for cyber-war, thus attracting the considered attention of ‘nation-states’. The analysis of worms like ‘stuxnet’ ‘flame’ and ‘duqu’ reveals the hand of a ‘nation-state’ in their design and deployment. Hence, the necessity to understand various issues in the defence of SCADA systems arises. The forensics of the SCADA system provide deep insight into the design and deployment of the worm (the malware) once the system is attacked. This is precisely the scope of this essay.

A firewall is a network security device that controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on a set of security rules. It protects internal networks from unauthorized external access. There are three main types of firewalls: network layer firewalls that filter traffic at the IP level, application layer firewalls that filter traffic by application, and proxy firewalls that intercept traffic and act as an intermediary. Firewalls use packet filtering, proxy services, or stateful inspection to screen traffic and enforce the security policy of an organization. They help control access between networks with different trust levels, such as between the highly trusted internal network and the less trusted internet.
Co-operative Wireless Intrusion Detection System Using MIBs From SNMPIJNSA Journal
In emerging technology of Internet, security issues are becoming more challenging. In case of wired LAN it is somewhat in control, but in case of wireless networks due to exponential growth in attacks, it has made difficult to detect such security loopholes. Wireless network security is being addressed using firewalls, encryption techniques and wired IDS (Intrusion Detection System) methods. But the approaches which were used in wired network were not successful in producing effective results for wireless networks. It is so because of features of wireless network such as open medium, dynamic changing topology, cooperative algorithms, lack of centralized monitoring and management point, and lack of a clear line of defense etc. So, there is need for new approach which will efficiently detect intrusion in wireless network. Efficiency can be achieved by implementing distributive, co-operative based, multi-agent IDS. The proposed system supports all these three features. It includes mobile agents for intrusion detection which uses SNMP (Simple network Management Protocol) and MIB (Management Information Base) variables for mobile wireless networks.
Peripheral Review and Analysis of Internet Network SecurityIJRES Journal
This paper is on the exploration of Internet Network security. With the advent of the internet, security became a major concern for computer users, organizations and the Military. The internet structure itself allow for many security threats to occur. Knowing the attack methods, the architecture of the internet when modified can reduce the possible attacks that can be sent across the network. The internet can be secured by the means of VPN, IPSec, Anti‐Malware Software and scanners, Secure Socket Layer, intrusion‐detection, security management, firewalls and cryptography mechanisms. The essence of this research is to forecast the future of internet network security.
Network infrastructures have played important part in most daily communications for business industries,

A Data Hiding Techniques Based on Length of English Text using DES and Attack...IJORCS
The comparing recent proposal for multimedia applications network security remains an important topic for researchers. The security deals with both wired and wireless communication. Network is defined as it is a large system consisting of many similar parts that are connected together to allow the movement or communication between or along the parts or between the parts and a control center. There are the main components of the network information system such as end systems (terminals, servers) and intermediate systems (hubs, switches, gateways). Every node has its own set of vulnerabilities that can be related to hardware, software, protocol stack etc. Nodes are interconnected by physical supports in a network for example connected with cables in wired Local Area Network (LAN) or radio waves (Wi-Fi) in Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Some nodes are able to provide services (FTP, HTTP browsing, database access). If two nodes want to communicate together, they must be interconnected physically and logically. Network security deals with also information hiding technique. Now day’s security deals with heterogeneous networks. The use of different wireless and wired network which are working on different platform is heterogeneous. So design of network security for such type of heterogeneous network is difficult task.

Evaluation of enhanced security solutions inIJNSA Journal
Traditionally, 802.11-based networks that relied on wired equivalent protocol (WEP) were especially
vulnerable to packet sniffing. Today, wireless networks are more prolific, and the monitoring devices used
to find them are mobile and easy to access. Securing wireless networks can be difficult because these
networks consist of radio transmitters and receivers, and anybody can listen, capture data and attempt to
compromise it. In recent years, a range of technologies and mechanisms have helped makes networking
more secure. This paper holistically evaluated various enhanced protocols proposed to solve WEP related
authentication, confidentiality and integrity problems. It discovered that strength of each solution depends
on how well the encryption, authentication and integrity techniques work. The work suggested using a
Defence-in-Depth Strategy and integration of biometric solution in 802.11i. Comprehensive in-depth
comparative analysis of each of the security mechanisms is driven by review of related work in WLAN
security solutions.

A firewall is a network security system that controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on rules. It establishes a barrier between an internal trusted network and an external untrusted network like the Internet. Firewalls exist as both software and hardware. Hardware firewalls are standalone devices that provide network-level protection, while software firewalls install on individual devices. Common firewall techniques include packet filtering, application gateways, proxy servers, and network address translation. Firewalls are customizable and can filter traffic based on IP addresses, domains, protocols, ports, and specific words. They provide security against threats like remote access, backdoors, denial of service attacks, viruses, and spam.
Detecting and Preventing Attacks Using Network Intrusion Detection SystemsCSCJournals
Intrusion detection is an important technology in business sector as well as an active area of research. It is an important tool for information security. A Network Intrusion Detection System is used to monitor networks for attacks or intrusions and report these intrusions to the administrator in order to take evasive action. Today computers are part of networked; distributed systems that may span multiple buildings sometimes located thousands of miles apart. The network of such a system is a pathway for communication between the computers in the distributed system. The network is also a pathway for intrusion. This system is designed to detect and combat some common attacks on network systems. It follows the signature based IDs methodology for ascertaining attacks. A signature based IDS will monitor packets on the network and compare them against a database of signatures or attributes from known malicious threats. It has been implemented in VC++. In this system the attack log displays the list of attacks to the administrator for evasive action. This system works as an alert device in the event of attacks directed towards an entire network.
This document discusses the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and its use in intrusion detection systems. It proposes a standardized 64-byte ARP protocol structure to more easily capture ARP packets from a network. The structure includes fields for frame information, destination and source addresses, ARP type details, and sender/target MAC and IP addresses. This standardized structure could be integrated into network monitoring to help detect intrusions without affecting normal data transfer processes. Overall, the document aims to optimize the ARP sequence for use in intrusion detection systems.
This document summarizes and evaluates techniques for identifying adversary attacks in wireless sensor networks. It begins by describing common types of attacks and issues with cryptographic identification methods. It then evaluates existing localization techniques like Received Signal Strength (RSS) and spatial correlation analysis. Specifically, it proposes the Generalized Model for Attack Detection (GMFAD) which uses Partitioning Around Medoids (PaM) clustering on RSS readings to detect multiple attackers. It also presents the Coherent Detection and Localization Model (CDAL-M) which integrates PaM with localization algorithms like RADAR and Bayesian networks to determine attacker locations. The document analyzes these techniques' effectiveness at detecting and localizing multiple adversary attackers in wireless sensor networks.

This document summarizes and reviews several techniques for secure clustering in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). It first provides background on VANETs and discusses why secure clustering is important. It then reviews five specific secure clustering techniques that have been proposed: 1) using public key infrastructure for key management between cluster heads, 2) Shamir's secret sharing scheme for data authentication, 3) using threshold cryptography for decentralized certificate authorities, 4) establishing trust through physical/logical domain grouping, and 5) methods for secure message aggregation and using onion signatures. The document aims to provide a comprehensive understanding and comparison of these different secure clustering techniques to help guide further research.
ENHANCE RFID SECURITY AGAINST BRUTE FORCE ATTACK BASED ON PASSWORD STRENGTH A...IJNSA Journal
RFID systems are one of the important techniques that have been used in modern technologies; these
systems rely heavily on default and random passwords. Due to the increasing use of RFID in various
industries, security and privacy issues should be addressed carefully as there is no efficient way to achieve
security in this technology. Some active tags are low cost and basic tags cannot use standard cryptographic
operations where the uses of such techniques increase the cost of these cards. This paper sheds light on the
weaknesses of RFID system and identifies the threats and countermeasures of possible attacks. For the
sake of this paper, an algorithm was designed to ensure and measure the strength of passwords used in the
authentication process between tag and reader to enhance security in their communication and defend
against brute-force attacks. Our algorithm is design by modern techniques based on entropy, password
length, cardinality, Markov-model and Fuzzy Logic
A Collaborative Intrusion Detection System for Cloud Computingijsrd.com
Cloud computing is a computing paradigm that shifts drastically from traditional computing architecture. Although this new computing paradigm brings many advantages like utility computing model but the design in not flawless and hence suffers from not only many known computer vulnerabilities but also introduces unique information confidentiality, integrity and availability risks as well due its inherent design paradigm. To provide secure and reliable services in cloud computing environment is an important issue. To counter a variety of attacks, especially large-scale coordinated attacks, a framework of Collaborative Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is proposed. The proposed system could reduce the impact of these kinds of attacks through providing timely notifications about new intrusions to Cloud users' systems. To provide such ability, IDSs in the cloud computing regions both correlate alerts from multiple elementary detectors and exchange knowledge of interconnected Clouds with each other.
TRUST FACTOR AND FUZZY-FIREFLY INTEGRATED PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION BASED I...IJCNCJournal
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is one of the rapidly emanating technologies, which has gained attention in a wide range of applications in the fields of military, private sectors, commercials and natural calamities. Securing MANET is a dominant responsibility, and hence, a trust factor and fuzzy based intrusion detection and prevention system is proposed for routing in this paper. Based on the trust values of the nodes, the fuzzy system identifies the intruder, such that the path generated in the MANET is secured. Moreover, an optimization algorithm, entitled Fuzzy integrated Particle Swarm Optimization (FuzzyFPSO), is proposed by the concatenation of the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for the optimal path selection in order to provide secure routing. The simulation of the proposed methodology is NS2 simulator and analysis is carried out considering four cases, like without attack, flooding attacks, black hole attack and selective packet drop attack concerning throughput, delay and detection rate. The remarkable evaluation measures of the proposed Fuzzy-FPSO are the maximal throughput of 0.634, minimal delay of 0.044 , maximal detection rate of 0.697 and minimal routing overhead of 0.24550 And the evaluation measure for the case without any attacks are the maximal throughput of 0.762, minimal delay of 0.029 ,maximal detection rate of 0.805 and minimal routing overhead of 0.11511.
This document discusses security technologies taught in an Illinois Institute of Technology course. It covers firewalls, intrusion detection systems, dial-up protection, and other topics. The learning objectives are to define types of firewalls, discuss firewall implementation approaches, and understand technologies like encryption and biometrics. Firewalls examined include packet filtering, proxy, stateful inspection, dynamic, and kernel proxy firewalls. Intrusion detection systems can be host-based or network-based, using signatures or anomalies. Remote authentication and terminal access control systems help secure dial-up access.
This document provides an overview of firewalls, including what they are, different types, basic concepts, their role, advantages, and disadvantages. It defines a firewall as a program or device that filters network traffic between the internet and a private network based on a set of rules. The document discusses software vs hardware firewalls and different types like packet filtering, application-level gateways, and circuit-level gateways. It also covers the history of firewalls, their design goals, and how they concentrate security and restrict access to trusted machines only.

ENHANCE RFID SECURITY AGAINST BRUTE FORCE ATTACK BASED ON PASSWORD STRENGTH A...IJNSA Journal
RFID systems are one of the important techniques that have been used in modern technologies; these
systems rely heavily on default and random passwords. Due to the increasing use of RFID in various
industries, security and privacy issues should be addressed carefully as there is no efficient way to achieve
security in this technology. Some active tags are low cost and basic tags cannot use standard cryptographic
operations where the uses of such techniques increase the cost of these cards. This paper sheds light on the
weaknesses of RFID system and identifies the threats and countermeasures of possible attacks. For the
sake of this paper, an algorithm was designed to ensure and measure the strength of passwords used in the
authentication process between tag and reader to enhance security in their communication and defend
against brute-force attacks. Our algorithm is design by modern techniques based on entropy, password
length, cardinality, Markov-model and Fuzzy Logic
A Collaborative Intrusion Detection System for Cloud Computingijsrd.com
Cloud computing is a computing paradigm that shifts drastically from traditional computing architecture. Although this new computing paradigm brings many advantages like utility computing model but the design in not flawless and hence suffers from not only many known computer vulnerabilities but also introduces unique information confidentiality, integrity and availability risks as well due its inherent design paradigm. To provide secure and reliable services in cloud computing environment is an important issue. To counter a variety of attacks, especially large-scale coordinated attacks, a framework of Collaborative Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is proposed. The proposed system could reduce the impact of these kinds of attacks through providing timely notifications about new intrusions to Cloud users' systems. To provide such ability, IDSs in the cloud computing regions both correlate alerts from multiple elementary detectors and exchange knowledge of interconnected Clouds with each other.
TRUST FACTOR AND FUZZY-FIREFLY INTEGRATED PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION BASED I...IJCNCJournal
Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is one of the rapidly emanating technologies, which has gained attention in a wide range of applications in the fields of military, private sectors, commercials and natural calamities. Securing MANET is a dominant responsibility, and hence, a trust factor and fuzzy based intrusion detection and prevention system is proposed for routing in this paper. Based on the trust values of the nodes, the fuzzy system identifies the intruder, such that the path generated in the MANET is secured. Moreover, an optimization algorithm, entitled Fuzzy integrated Particle Swarm Optimization (FuzzyFPSO), is proposed by the concatenation of the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for the optimal path selection in order to provide secure routing. The simulation of the proposed methodology is NS2 simulator and analysis is carried out considering four cases, like without attack, flooding attacks, black hole attack and selective packet drop attack concerning throughput, delay and detection rate. The remarkable evaluation measures of the proposed Fuzzy-FPSO are the maximal throughput of 0.634, minimal delay of 0.044 , maximal detection rate of 0.697 and minimal routing overhead of 0.24550 And the evaluation measure for the case without any attacks are the maximal throughput of 0.762, minimal delay of 0.029 ,maximal detection rate of 0.805 and minimal routing overhead of 0.11511.
This document discusses security technologies taught in an Illinois Institute of Technology course. It covers firewalls, intrusion detection systems, dial-up protection, and other topics. The learning objectives are to define types of firewalls, discuss firewall implementation approaches, and understand technologies like encryption and biometrics. Firewalls examined include packet filtering, proxy, stateful inspection, dynamic, and kernel proxy firewalls. Intrusion detection systems can be host-based or network-based, using signatures or anomalies. Remote authentication and terminal access control systems help secure dial-up access.

This document discusses firewalls, including their definition, history, types, and purposes. A firewall is a program or hardware device that filters network traffic between the internet and an internal network based on a set of security rules. There are different types of firewalls, including packet filtering routers, application-level gateways, and circuit-level gateways. Firewalls aim to restrict network access and protect internal systems by only allowing authorized traffic according to a security policy.
This document provides an overview of firewalls, including what they are, how they work, types of firewalls, and their history. A firewall is a program or device that filters network traffic between the internet and an internal network based on a set of rules. There are different types, including packet filtering routers, application-level gateways, and circuit-level gateways. Firewalls aim to only allow authorized traffic according to a security policy while protecting internal systems. They provide advantages such as restricting access and hiding internal network information but can also limit some network connectivity.
A firewall is hardware or software that filters network traffic by allowing or denying transmission based on a set of rules to protect networks from unauthorized access. There are two main types - network layer firewalls which filter at the IP address and port level, and application layer firewalls which can filter traffic from specific applications like FTP or HTTP. A DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a physical or logical sub-network exposed to an untrusted network like the internet that contains external-facing services, protected from internal networks by firewalls. Firewalls provide security benefits like restricting access to authorized users and preventing intrusions from untrusted networks.
Lakshmi.S presents information on firewalls including definitions, types, and concepts. A firewall filters internet access to protect private networks. There are software and hardware firewalls. Types include packet filtering routers, application-level gateways, and circuit-level gateways. Firewalls concentrate security, filter unnecessary protocols, hide internal information, and require connections through the firewall. While firewalls improve security, they can hamper some network access and concentrating security in one location means compromising the firewall poses risks.
This document discusses firewalls and their types. It begins by explaining that firewalls protect networks by guarding entry points and are becoming more sophisticated. It then defines a firewall as a network security system that controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on rules. The document outlines different generations of firewalls and describes four main types: packet filtering, stateful packet inspection, application gateways/proxies, and circuit-level gateways. It details the characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses of each type. Finally, it emphasizes that networks are still at risk of attacks and that firewalls have become ubiquitous, so choosing the right solution depends on needs, policies, resources.
There are two basic types of firewalls:
1. Network layer firewalls make decisions based on source/destination addresses and ports in IP packets. They route traffic directly and are fast but can be fooled more easily.
2. Application layer firewalls use proxy servers and perform logging/auditing of all traffic passing through. They are more secure but can impact performance and transparency.
The distinction between the two types is blurring as technologies advance to incorporate aspects of both approaches. The appropriate type depends on individual network needs.
A firewall is a network security device that controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on a set of security rules. It protects internal networks from unauthorized external access. There are three main types of firewalls: network layer firewalls that filter traffic at the IP level, application layer firewalls that filter traffic by application, and proxy firewalls that intercept traffic and act as an intermediary. Firewalls use packet filtering, proxy services, or stateful inspection to screen traffic and enforce the security policy of an organization. They help control access between networks with different trust levels, such as between the highly trusted internal network and the less trusted internet.
In computing, a firewall is a software or hardware-based network security system that controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on applied rule set. A firewall establishes a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another network (e.g., the Internet) that is not assumed to be secure and trusted.
Many personal computer operating systems include software-based firewalls to protect against threats from the public Internet. Many routers that pass data between networks contain firewall components and, conversely, many firewalls can perform basic routing functions.

An Alternative to Hard Drives in the Coming Future:DNA-BASED DATA STORAGEvivatechijri
Demand for data storage is growing exponentially, but the capacity of existing storage media is not keeping up, there emerges a requirement for a storage medium with high capacity, high storage density, and possibility to face up to extreme environmental conditions. According to a research in 2018, every minute Google conducted 3.88 million searches, other people posted 49,000 photos on Instagram, sent 159,362,760 e-mails, tweeted 473,000 times and watched 4.33 million videos on YouTube. In 2020 it estimated a creation of 1.7 megabytes of knowledge per second per person globally, which translates to about 418 zettabytes during a single year. The magnetic or optical data-storage systems that currently hold this volume of 0s and 1s typically cannot last for quite a century. Running data centres takes vast amounts of energy. In short, we are close to have a substantial data-storage problem which will only become more severe over time. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are often potentially used for these purposes because it isn't much different from the traditional method utilized in a computer. DNA’s information density is notable, 215 petabytes or 215 million gigabytes of data can be stored in just one gram of DNA. First we can encode all data at a molecular level and then store it in a medium that will last for a while and not become out-dated just like floppy disks. Due to the improved techniques for reading and writing DNA, a rapid increase is observed in the amount of possible data storage in DNA.
The usage of chatbots has increased tremendously since past few years. A conversational interface is an interface that the user can interact with by means of a conversation. The conversation can occur by speech but also by text input. When a chatty interface uses text, it is also described as a chatbot or a conversational medium. During this study, the user experience factors of these so called chatbots were investigated. The prime objective is “to spot the state of the art in chatbot usability and applied human-computer interaction methodologies, to research the way to assess chatbots usability". Two sorts of chatbots are formulated, one with and one without personalisation factors. the planning of this research may be a two-by-two factorial design. The independent variables are the two chatbots (unpersonalised versus personalised) and thus the speci?c task or goal the user are ready to do with the chatbot within the ?nancial ?eld (a simple versus a posh task). The results are that there was no noteworthy interaction effect between personalisation and task on the user experience of chatbots. A signi?cant di?erence was found between the two tasks with regard to the user experience of chatbots, however this variation wasn't because of personalisation.

Cross Platform Development Using Fluttervivatechijri
Today the development of cross-platform mobile application has under the state of compromise. The developers are not willing to choose an alternative of either building the similar app many times for many operating systems or to accept a lowest common denominator and optimal solution that will going to trade the native speed, accuracy for portability. The Flutter is an open-source SDK for creating high-performance, high fidelity mobile apps for the development of iOS and Android. Few significant features of flutter are - Just-in-time compilation (JIT), Ahead- of-time compilation (AOT compilation) into a native (system-dependent) machine code so that the resulting binary file can execute natively. The Flutter’s hot reload functionality helps us to understand quickly and easily experiment, build UIs, add features, and fix bugs. Hot reload works by injecting updated source code files into the running Dart Virtual Machine (VM). With the help of Flutter, we believe that we would be having a solution that gives us the best of both worlds: hardware accelerated graphics and UI, powered by native ARM code, targeting both popular mobile operating systems.

Recommender System (RS) has emerged as a significant research interest that aims to assist users to seek out items online by providing suggestions that closely match their interests. Recommender system, an information filtering technology employed in many items is presented in internet sites as per the interest of users, and is implemented in applications like movies, music, venue, books, research articles, tourism and social media normally. Recommender systems research is usually supported comparisons of predictive accuracy: the higher the evaluation scores, the higher the recommender. One amongst the leading approaches was the utilization of advice systems to proactively recommend scholarly papers to individual researchers. In today's world, time has more value and therefore the researchers haven't any much time to spend on trying to find the proper articles in line with their research domain. Recommender Systems are designed to suggest users the things that best fit the user needs and preferences. Recommender systems typically produce an inventory of recommendations in one among two ways -through collaborative or content-based filtering. Additionally, both the general public and also the non-public used descriptive metadata are used. The scope of the advice is therefore limited to variety of documents which are either publicly available or which are granted copyright permits. Recommendation systems (RS) support users and developers of varied computer and software systems to beat information overload, perform information discovery tasks and approximate computation, among others.

A Study of Tokenization of Real Estate Using Blockchain Technologyvivatechijri
Real estate is by far one of the most trusted investments that people have preferred, being a lucrative investment it provides a steady source of income in the form of lease and rents. Although there are numerous advantages, one of the key downsides of real estate investments is lack of liquidity. Thus, even though global real estate investments amount to about twice the size of investments in stock markets, the number of investors in the real estate market is significantly lower. Block chain technology has real potential in addressing the issues of liquidity and transparency, opening the market to even retail investors. Owing to the functionality and flexibility of creating Security Tokens, which are backed by real-world assets, real estate can be made liquid with the help of Special Purpose Vehicles. Tokens of ERC 777 standard, which represent fractional ownership of the real estate can be purchased by an investor and these tokens can also be listed on secondary exchanges. The robustness of Smart Contracts can enable the efficient transfer of tokens and seamless distribution of earnings amongst the investors. This work describes Ethereum blockchainbased solutions to make the existing Real Estate investment system much more efficient.

Cybersecurity breaches refer to unauthorized access, manipulation, or destruction of digital information or systems. They can occur through various means such as malware, phishing attacks, insider threats, and vulnerabilities in software or hardware. Once a breach happens, cybercriminals can exploit the compromised data for financial gain, espionage, or sabotage. Causes of breaches include software and hardware vulnerabilities, phishing attacks, insider threats, weak passwords, and a lack of security awareness.
The consequences of cybersecurity breaches are severe. Financial loss is a significant impact, as organizations face theft of funds, legal fees, and repair costs. Breaches also damage reputations, leading to a loss of trust among customers, partners, and stakeholders. Regulatory penalties are another consequence, with hefty fines imposed for non-compliance with data protection regulations. Intellectual property theft undermines innovation and competitiveness, while disruptions of critical services like healthcare and utilities impact public safety and well-being.
How to Manage Internal Notes in Odoo 17 POSCeline George
In this slide, we'll explore how to leverage internal notes within Odoo 17 POS to enhance communication and streamline operations. Internal notes provide a platform for staff to exchange crucial information regarding orders, customers, or specific tasks, all while remaining invisible to the customer. This fosters improved collaboration and ensures everyone on the team is on the same page.

Abstract : When your computer is connected to the Internet, you expose your computer to a variety of
potential threats. The Internet is designed in such a way that if you have access to the Internet, all other
computers on the Internet can connect to your computer.This leaves you vulnerable to various common attacks.
This is especially troubling as several popular programs open services on your computer that allow others to
view files on your computer! While this functionality is expected, the difficulty is that security errors are
detected that always allow hackers to attack your computer with the ability to view or destroy sensitive
information stored on your computer. To protect your computer from such attacks you need to "teach" your
computer to ignore or resist external testing attempts. The common name for such a program is Firewall. A
firewall is software that creates a secure environment whose function is to block or restrict incoming and
outgoing information over a network. These firewalls actually do not work and are not suitable for business
premises to maintain information security while supporting free exchange of ideas. Firewall are becoming more
and more sophisticated in the day, and new features are being added all the time, so that, despite criticism and
intimidating development methods, they are still a powerful defense. In this paper, we read a network firewall
that helps the corporate environment and other networks that want to exchange information over the network.
The firewall protects the flow of traffic through the internet and limits the amount of external and internal
information and provides the internal user with the illusion of anonymous FTP and www online
communications.
Keywords - Firewall technologies, network security, access control, security policy, protective mechanisms.
I. INTRODUCTION
Today's networks change and develop on a regular basis to adapt to new business situations, such as
organisations, acquisitions, outsourcing, mergers, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships, and the increasing
degree to which internal networks are connected to the Internet. The increased complexity and openness of the
network thus caused makes the question of security more complicated than hitherto, and necessitates the
development of sophisticated security technologies at the interface between networks of different security
domains, such as between Intranet and Internet or Extranet. The best way of ensuring interface security is the
use of a firewall.
A Firewall is a computer, router or other communication device that filters access to the protected network.
Cheswick and Bellovin define a firewall as a collection of components or a system that is placed between two
networks and possesses the following properties:
All traffic from inside to outside, and vice-versa, must pass through it.
Only authorised traffic, as defined by the local security policy, is allowed to pass through it.
The firewall itself is immune to penetration.

Such traditional network firewalls prevent unauthorised access and attacks by protecting the points of entry into
the network. As Figure 1 shows, a firewall may consist of a variety of components including host (called bastion
host), router filters(or screens), and services. A gateway is a machine or set of machines that provides relay
services complementing the filters. Another term illustrated in the figure is "demilitarised zone or DMZ". This is
an area or sub-network between the inside and outside networks that is partially protected. One or more gateway
machines may be located in the DMZ. Exemplifying a traditional security concept, defence-indepth, the outside
filter protects the gateway from attack, while the inside gateway guards against the consequences of a
compromised gateway. Depending on the situation of the network concerned, there may be multiple firewalls,
multiple internal networks, VPNs, Extranets and perimeter networks. There may also be a variety of connection
types, such as TCP and UDP, audio or video streaming, and downloading of applets. Different types of firewall
configuration with extensive practical guides can be found in. There are also many firewall products on the
market from different vendors. See for an updated list of products and vendors.

II. History of Firewall
Open Door Networks shipped the first Macintosh firewall (for Mac OS 8.1) in 1998. With the DoorStop X
Firewall and the DoorStop X Security Suite, Open Door has gotten back into the business that it helped get
started.

III. Basic Approaches and Limitations
Firewall technology can be used to protect networks, by installing it strategically at a single security screen
station where the private network or the Intranet connects to the public Internet, making it easier to ensure
security, audit and monitor traffic, and trace break-in attempts. It can also be used to isolate sub-networks, in
order to provide additional layers of security (defence-in-depth) within the organisation.
There are three basic approaches or services that a firewall uses to protect a network: packet filtering,
circuit proxy, and application proxy. Some authors broadly classify these into two kinds of approach: transport
level and application level (by including circuit proxy in this category).
3.1. Packet filtering
Firewalls having this function perform only very basic operations, such as examining the packet
header, verifying the IP address, the port or both, and granting and denying access without making any changes.
Due to this simplicity of operation, they have the advantage of both speed and efficiency. The filtered packets
may be incoming, outgoing or both, depending on the type of router. An additional advantage is that they do
their job quiet independently of the user's knowledge or Internal & External Gateway Systems Inside Filter
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) Filter Outside 3 assistance, i.e., they have good transparency. Packets can be filtered
on the basis of some or all of the following criteria: source IP address, destination IP address, TCP/UDP source
port, and TCP/UDP destination port. A firewall of this type can block connections to and from specific hosts,
networks and ports. They are cheap since they use software already resident in the router, and provide a good
level of security since they are placed strategically at the choke point.

3.2. Circuit Proxy
The second approach is the use of what is called a circuit proxy. The main difference between the
circuit proxy and the packet filtering firewall is that the former is the addressee to which all communicators
must address their packets. Assuming access has been granted, the circuit proxy replaces the original address (its
own) with the address of the intended destination. It has the disadvantage of laying claim to the
processing resources required to make changes to the header, and the advantage of concealing the IP address of
the target system.
3.3. Application Proxy
The third approach involves the use of what is known as an application proxy. An application proxy is
more complicated in operation than a packet filtering firewall or a circuit proxy. The application proxy
understands the application protocol and data, and intercepts any information intended for that application. On
the basis of the amount of information available to make decisions, the application proxy can authenticate users
and judge whether any of the data could pose a threat. The price to be paid for this more comprehensive function
is that users or clients often have to be reconfigured to them, sometimes a complicated process, with a
consequent loss of transparency. Application proxies are referred to as proxy services, and the host machines
running them as application gateways.
3.4. Packet Inspection Approach
This approach, in contrast to the technologies so far described, involves inspecting the contents of
packets as wells as their headers. An inspection firewall carries out its inspection by using an inspection module,
which understands, and can therefore inspect, data destined for all layers (from network layer to application
layer). It carries out its inspection by integrating all information gathered from all layers into a
single inspection point, and then examining it. A state-full inspection firewall is one which also registers the
state of any connection it is handling, and acts on this information. An example of a state-full inspection firewall
is the state-full packet filtering mode in Checkpoint's “Firewall-1” or Network Associates' Gauntlet. Inspection
firewalls can provide address translation and hiding, virus scanning, Web
site filtering, screening for key words (typically in e-mail), and context-sensitive security for complex
applications.
3.5. Firewall Limitations
As pointed out in, "Information security professionals often find themselves working against
misconception and popular opinions formed from incomplete data. Some of these opinions spring more from
hope than fact, such as the idea that internal network security can be solved simply by deploying a firewall".
While it is true that firewalls play an important and central role in the maintenance of network
security and any organisation that ignores them, does so at its peril, they are neither the panacea of every
security aspect of a network, nor the sole sufficient bulwark against intrusion. Knowing what firewalls can't do
is as important as knowing what they can. The following are limitations one should be aware of.
A firewall is by its nature perimeter defence, and not geared to combating the enemy within, and consequently
no useful counter measure against a user who abuses authorised access to the domain.
A firewall is no real defence against malicious code problems like viruses and Trojan horses, although some are
capable of scanning the code for telltale signs.
Configuring packet-filtering rules tends to be complicated process in the course of which errors can easily occur,
leading to holes in the defence. In addition, testing the configured rules tends to be a lengthy and difficult
process due to the shortcomings of current testing tools. Normal packet-filtering routers cannot enforce some
security policies simply because the necessary information is not available to them.

IV. Additional Important Features
Firewalls are becoming more complex and sophisticated by the day, and thus more efficient at identifying
intrusions and logging them, and automatically notifying the right people. They provide multiple layers of
protection and some cache data to improve performance, and support Virtual Private Network (VPNs), Web-
based administration, authentication, etc. There is also a tendency to add non-security related functions to the
firewall such as built-in Web servers, FTP servers, and e-mail systems, and even proxy servers for streaming
audio and video. We agree with those who feel that some additions to firewalls make sense and are useful when
they enhance security, while others don't make sense and may even be
dangerous, especially over time, when they represent a decrease in security and an increase in vulnerability. For
example, to add services that increase the administration load adds another potential avenue of attack.
4.1.Content Caching
While caching is not traditionally a function of firewalls, it is becoming an increasingly frequent and
important feature. An increase in performance is achieved by caching the contents of an accessed location with
the result that subsequent requests for access will lead to already cached contents being used, without it being
necessary to access the location again (except when it is necessary to refresh).
4.2.Logging and Alerts
It is important for a firewall to log events, determine their legitimacy or otherwise, and notify the
network administrator. It should be noted that it is essential to protect the integrity of the log, since unauthorised
access to, and editing of, the log will, of course, neutralise its raison d’être. Whether the function of protecting
the log is fulfilled by the firewall itself or not, is a matter of implementation.
4.3.Management
Management ranges from command line to sophisticated GUI-based and secured remote access.
Security management and administration, particularly as it applies to different firewalls using different
technologies and provided by different vendors, is a critical problem. As more and more security services are
introduced and applied to different firewall components, properly configuring and maintaining the services
consistently becomes increasingly difficult. An error by an administrator in maintaining a consistent
configuration of security services can easily lead to security vulnerability. A firewall should thus provide a
security management interface that enables it to be locally or remotely managed in a coherent and
comprehensible fashion.
4.4.Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
A VPN is an encrypted tunnel over the Internet or another untrusted network providing confidentiality
and integrity of transmissions, and logically all hosts in a VPN are in one Intranet . Some firewalls include VPN
capabilities (reasonable extension) to secure networks, so that they can safely communicate in private over the
public network. They achieve this by strong authentication and encryption of all traffic between them.
4.5.Adaptive Firewalls
The new trend is towards adaptive firewalls that tie filters, circuit gateways and proxies together in
series. This gives the firewall administrator greater control over the level of security used for different services
or at different points in the use of those services. He may, for example, configure the firewall to give priority to
speed of transfer at the expense of security when this is appropriate. The firewall will then
on such occasions reduce security to a lower level, thus allowing for greater speed of transfer, and return it to its
original level on completion of the transfer. Phoenix states that Adaptive Firewall Technology provides fluid,
self-adapting control of network access, a key to establishing an effective network security policy by examining
every packet (and adapting rules "on-the-fly" based on information in the packet) passing through the network
interface.
4.6.Quality of Service (QoS)
Some firewalls include QoS features that allow administrators to control what proportion of a given
network connection is to be dedicated to a given service. There are those who feel that QoS should be handled
by Internet routers, while others insist that this is a matter of access control, and thus should be included in the

firewall. Quoting: "Moreover, some vendors, notably Check Point, have built their QoS engine using the same
technology that is in their firewall. The philosophy here seems to be, access control is access control."
4.7.Policy and Firewalls
There are two levels of network policy that directly influence the design, installation and use of a
firewall system: higher-level policy and lower-level policy. The former is the network service access policy,
which lays down which services are to be accessible to whom, and how they are to be used. The latter is the
firewall design policy, which describes how the firewall will implement the network service access
policy, and precisely how it will take access decisions in accordance with it. Firewalls typically implement one
of two design policies. The firewall may permit any service not expressly denied, or it may deny any service not
expressly permitted.
Service access policy may, for example, decree that there shall be no access to a site from the Internet, but allow
access from the site to the Internet. Alternatively, it may decree that access from the Internet shall be restricted
to certain selected services in the site. The latter is the more widespread of the two. Today’s business
environments are, however, dynamic. Organisations are continually changing to adapt to new circumstances
brought about by reorganisations, mergers,acquisitions etc. Therefore there are regularly new policies to be
enforced, and, to remain effective, today’s firewalls must be able to adapt to them.
V. CONCLUSION
As we have discussed so far that firewall is very important part of computer defense against viruses,
spyware, Trojans and other malwares and also between direct malicious attacks from outside and outside of
network. A good firewall is the one that provide full protection of network without effecting the speed of our
computer and our network access. In order to provide security, one should keep following things in mind :
We should never install any software from suspicious sources. Always download from the respected
sites available on internet.
Use a firewall to monitor all data or information that we want to exchange over the internet.
On every computer a firewall software must be installed else it will only take one PC to become
infected and very fast it will effect the all computers available on that network.
