An Insight to Covert Channels
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an overview of different concepts regarding covert channels. It discusses the various classifications and the detailing of various fields used to manipulate for the covert channel execution. Different evaluation criteria’s are presented for measuring the strength of covert channels. The defenses and prevention schemes for this covert channel will also be discussed. This paper also discuss about an advanced timing channel i.e. Temperature Based Covert Channel.

Detecting Hidden Shared Dependencies via Covert Channels
Designs for high availability using redundant subsystems rely on the independence of replicated subsystems to work. However, increasing prevalence of multiple administrative domains in distributed systems obscures dependency information. In this paper, we propose a new technique to detect hidden shared dependencies. We utilize the insight that shared resources often give rise to covert channels...

Covert channels use stealth communications to compromise the security policies of systems. They constitute an important security threat since they can be used to exfiltrate confidential data from networks. TCP/IP protocols are used everyday and are subject to covert channels problems. Covert channels are used for the secret transfer of information. Encryption only protects communication from be...

In network covert timing channels that use timing features of transmission packets to modulating covert information, the appropriate encoding schema is very important. In this paper, a hybrid encoding schema proposed through combining "the inter-pac...
متن کاملBehavioral Mimicry Covert Communication
Covert communication refers to the process of communicating data through a channel that is neither designed, nor intended to transfer information. Traditionally, covert channels are considered as security threats in computer systems and a great deal of attention has been given to countermeasures for covert communication schemes. The evolution of computer networks led the communication community...
