The production and exchange of information has become a central activity in today’s global economy. Protecting and securing information as it travels over the vast, mostly public Internet has emerged as perhaps the premiere issue of the Information Age. Thus, the attack and defense of electronic information has formed an entirely new kind of conflict – information warfare. Information warfare i...

The context of information security is changing dramatically. Networking technologies have driven the global expansion of electronic commerce. Electronic commerce is increasingly engaging sophisticated advances like digital agents and web services. As a result of such advances, the information systems architectures that must be secured are becoming dynamic: shifting landscapes of changing vulne...

Apply systems engineering approaches to measure and analysis vulnerabilities of military tactical RF wireless networks. Develop smart and innovative performance matrixes through EW modeling and simulation scenarios. Systematic utilize of systems engineering approaches with RF electronic warfare modeling and simulation scenarios to support research in vulnerability analysis. RF electronic warfar...

This paper investigates the autonomous decision-making process of threat detection, classiÞcation, and the selection of alternative countermeasures against threats in electronic warfare settings. We introduce a threat model that represents a speciÞc threat pattern and also present a methodology that compiles the threat into a set of rules using soft computing methods. This methodology, which is...

This paper introduces Social Coverage Maps (SCM) as a visual representation of the societal impact of localized disruptions in urban areas. Incited by the recent deliberate interruption of wireless services for the purpose of crowd control in San Francisco, we focus on the use of SCMs for representing emergent effects of electronic warfare. As a prequel we discuss maps and other visualizations ...
