A Secure Station for Network Monitoring and Control
نویسنده
چکیده
The proliferation of computers has spurred the creation of large networks even in small organisations. These networks comprise great numbers of elements such as routers, switches, servers etc. located in multiple locations. The administration of these elements has to be carried out usually from a central location over the existing network infrastructure. Starting from the premise that the organisation LAN or MAN cannot be assumed to be secure, we created a network of stations that communicate via a secure VPN. Each station provides a secure bridgehead into one or more remote parts of the network. From this bridgehead the administrators can monitor and control nearby network elements in a secure way. In this paper we present the architecture of the monitoring and control stations that have been deployed within the University of Piraeus network. We also describe how such stations have been deployed in a pilot project for the management of the Greek University Network (GUNET). U

Secure Communication in Shotgun Cellular Systems
In this paper, we analyze the secure connectivity in Shotgun cellular systems (SCS: Wireless communication systems with randomly placed base stations) by Poisson intrinsically secure communication graph (IS-graph), i.e., a random graph which describes the connections that are secure over a network. For a base-station in SCS, a degree of secure connections is determined over two channel models: ...
متن کاملEvaluation of monitoring network density using discrete entropy theory
The regional evaluation of monitoring stations for water resources can be of great importance due to its role in finding appropriate locations for stations, the maximum gathering of useful information and preventing the accumulation of unnecessary information and ultimately reducing the cost of data collection. Based on the theory of discrete entropy, this study analyzes the density of rain gag...

متن کاملRobust state estimation in power systems using pre-filtering measurement data
State estimation is the foundation of any control and decision making in power networks. The first requirement for a secure network is a precise and safe state estimator in order to make decisions based on accurate knowledge of the network status. This paper introduces a new estimator which is able to detect bad data with few calculations without need for repetitions and estimation residual cal...

Monitoring the quality parameters of the river is very important in the management of surface water resources. One of the effective methods in this field is entropy theory which has a very good capability in designing quality monitoring network. In this research, discrete entropy theory has been studied and monitored in order to qualitatively evaluate the temporal and spatial frequencies of the...
