It has transformed the classic Bluetooth into a technology that can be embedded into resource constrained devices running on a cell coin battery for months or years. Most BLE devices that are sold in the market use the Just Works pairing mode to establish a connection with peer devices. This mode is so lightweight that it leaves the implementation of security to application developers and device manufacturers. Unfortunately, as the market does not want to pay for security, a number of vulnerable smart devices are strolling around in the market. In this paper, we discuss how Bluetooth devices that use the Just Works pairing mode can be exploited to become nonoperational. We conduct a case study on three different Bluetooth smart devices. We show how these devices can be attacked and abused to not work properly. We also present a vulnerability that is due to the behavior of BLE smart devices and the Just Works pairing mode. This vulnerability can be exploited to generate an attack that affects BLE availability. We propose a solution to mitigate the attack.","PeriodicalId":350566,"journal":{"name":"2019 3rd Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114327983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Laborde, Arnaud Oglaza, Darine Rammal, F. Barrère","doi":"10.1109/CSNet47905.2019.9108976","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/CSNet47905.2019.9108976","url":null,"abstract":"Situation awareness consists of \"the perception of the elements in the environment within a volume of time and space, the comprehension of their meaning, and the projection of their status in the near future\". Being aware of the security situation is then mandatory to launch proper security reactions in response to cybersecurity attacks. Security Incident and Event Management solutions are deployed within Security Operation Centers. Some vendors propose machine learning based approaches to detect intrusions by analysing networks behaviours. But cyberattacks like Wannacry and NotPetya, which shut down hundreds of thousands of computers, demonstrated that networks monitoring and surveillance solutions remain insufficient. Detecting these complex attacks (a.k.a. Advanced Persistent Threats) requires security administrators to retain a large number of logs just in case problems are detected and involve the investigation of past security events. This approach generates massive data that have to be analysed at the right time in order to detect any accidental or caused incident. In the same time, security administrators are not yet seasoned to such a task and lack the desired skills in data science. As a consequence, a large amount of data is available and still remains unexplored which leaves number of indicators of compromise under the radar. Building on the concept of situation awareness, we developed a situation-driven framework, called dynSMAUG, for dynamic security management. This approach simplifies the security management of dynamic systems and allows the specification of security policies at a high-level of abstraction (close to security requirements). This invited paper aims at exposing real security situations elicitation, coming from networks security experts, and showing the results of exploratory analysis techniques using complex event processing techniques to identify and extract security situations from a large volume of logs. The results contributed to the extension of the dynSMAUG solution.","PeriodicalId":350566,"journal":{"name":"2019 3rd Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124411964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The IoT has the potential to affect our daily lives and bring many benefits to society. Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) is a new IoT technology that offers long distance connectivity for a massive number of devices. LPWAN is a promising solution to enable complex IoT scenarios, such as smart cities and smart healthcare. LoRa is currently one of the leading LPWAN solutions available for public use. Due to the great number of connected devices and, in some cases, sensitive data transmitted in IoT networks, security is one of the main concerns in LPWAN. In this paper, we focus on the issues of key management in LoRaWAN. We propose a secure architecture for key management based on private blockchain and smart contracts in order to increase the levels of security and availability in LoRaWAN environments. In order to show the feasibility of the proposed architecture, a working prototype was implemented using open-source tools and commodity hardware.","PeriodicalId":350566,"journal":{"name":"2019 3rd Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet)","volume":"110 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128733363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we have proposed a solution that allows controlling access to the information offered by QR codes. Through a scanner designed in APP Inventor which has been called XSStudent, a system has been built that analyzes the URLs obtained and compares them with a previously trained system. This study was executed by means of a controlled attack to the users of the university who through a flyer with a QR code and a fictional link accessed an infected page with JavaScript code that allowed a successful cross-site scripting attack. The results indicate that 100% of the users are vulnerable to this type of attacks, so also, with our proposal, an attack executed in the universities using the Beef software would be totally blocked.","PeriodicalId":350566,"journal":{"name":"2019 3rd Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129866700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As auspicious as this approach is, it brings forth many challenges: from data security to time latency issues with data computation as well as delivery to end users. Fog computing has emerged as an extension for cloud computing to bring data processing and storage close to end-users; however, it minimizes the time latency issue but still suffers from data security challenges. For instance, when a fog node providing services to end users is compromised, the users’ data security can be violated. Thus, this paper proposes a secure and fine-grained data access control scheme by integrating the Ciphertext Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (CP-ABE) algorithm and blockchain concept to prevent fog nodes from violating end users’ data security in a situation where a compromised fog node is being ousted. We also classify the fog nodes into fog federations, based on their attributes such as services and locations, to minimize the time latency and communication overhead between fog nodes and cloud server. Further, the exploitation and integration of the blockchain concept and the CP-ABE algorithm enables fog nodes in the same fog federation to perform the authorization process in a distributed manner. In addition, to solve time latency and communication overhead problems, we equip every fog node with an off-chain database to store most frequently accessed data files for specific time, and with an on-chain access control policies table (On-chain Files Tracking Table) which must be protected from being tampered by malicious (rogue) fog nodes. Therefore, blockchain plays a vital role here as it is tamper-proof by nature. We demonstrate our scheme’s efficiency and feasibility by designing algorithms and conducting a security analysis. The provided analysis shows that the proposed scheme is efficient and feasible in ousting malicious (rogue) fog nodes.","PeriodicalId":350566,"journal":{"name":"2019 3rd Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115630287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
