Performance and student perception evaluation of cloud-based virtualised security and digital forensics labs. (2011)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Graves, J., Bose, N., Macfarlane, R., Davison, B., & Ludwiniak, R. (2011). Performance and student perception evaluation of cloud-based virtualised security and digital forensics labs. HEA ICS Conference,

This paper focuses on the integration of virtualised environments within the teaching of computer security and digital forensics, and includes three case studies. The first case study involves assessing student perception on the usage of VMware Works...

A methodology to evaluate rate-based intrusion prevention system against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS). (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Flandrin, F., Macfarlane, R., & Graves, J. (2011). A methodology to evaluate rate-based intrusion prevention system against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS). In Cyberforensics 2011

This paper defines a methodology for the evaluation of a Rate-based Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) for a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) threat. This evaluation system uses realistic background traffic along with attacking traffic, with four...
