Impact Analysis of Security Attacks on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) (2024)
Journal Article
Baird, I., Wadhaj, I., Ghaleb, B., & Thomson, C. (2024). Impact Analysis of Security Attacks on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). Electronics, 13(16), Article 3314. https://doi.org/10.3390/electronics13163314

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) offer a decentralized communication solution ideal for infrastructure-less environments like disaster relief zones. However, their inherent lack of central control and dynamic topology make them vulnerable to attacks.... Read More about Impact Analysis of Security Attacks on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs).

Safeguarding IoT Systems: Novel Authentication Method to Counteract Sybil and Flood Attacks (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Baird, I., Ghaleb, B., Wadhaj, I., Russell, G., & Buchanan, W. J. (2024, June). Safeguarding IoT Systems: Novel Authentication Method to Counteract Sybil and Flood Attacks. Presented at 4th International Conference on Robotics and Control Engineering, Edinburgh

This paper introduces an innovative strategy for countering Sybil and DODAG Information Solicitation (DIS) flood attacks within lightweight Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The proposed method combines a one-way hash chain with a Bloom filter, leve... Read More about Safeguarding IoT Systems: Novel Authentication Method to Counteract Sybil and Flood Attacks.
