PLC Memory Attack Detection and Response in a Clean Water Supply System (2019)
Journal Article
Robles-Durazno, A., Moradpoor, N., McWhinnie, J., Russell, G., & Maneru-Marin, I. (2019). PLC Memory Attack Detection and Response in a Clean Water Supply System. International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection, 26, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcip.2019.05.003

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are frequently used in manufacturing and critical infrastructures like water treatment, chemical plants, and transportation schemes. Citizens tend to take modern-day conveniences such as trains, planes or tap water fo... Read More about PLC Memory Attack Detection and Response in a Clean Water Supply System.

Decrypting Live SSH Traffic in Virtual Environments (2019)
Journal Article
Mclaren, P., Russell, G., Buchanan, W. J., & Tan, Z. (2019). Decrypting Live SSH Traffic in Virtual Environments. Digital Investigation, 29, 109-117. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.diin.2019.03.010

Decrypting and inspecting encrypted malicious communications may assist crime detection and prevention. Access to client or server memory enables the discovery of artefacts required for decrypting secure communications. This paper develops the MemDe-...

Security issues of a publicly accessible cloud computing infrastructure. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Russell, G., & Macfarlane, R. (2012, June). Security issues of a publicly accessible cloud computing infrastructure

Edinburgh Napier University runs a custom cloud computing infrastructure for both student and public use. Such access carries dangers, both reputational and legal, as accidental or deliberate acts by users can be dangerous to other systems. This pape...

Student behaviour in a flexible learning course framework. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Russell, G., & Cumming, A. (2011, July). Student behaviour in a flexible learning course framework

Flexible learning approaches to education are important in modern Universities. Students should be able to choose how they will study their courses, and educators should be prepared to support students in their choices, and guide students to employ s...

Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kalganova, T., Russell, G., & Cumming, A. (1999, December). Multiple traffic signal control using a genetic algorithm. Presented at 4th International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms, ICANNGA '99

Optimising traffic signal timings for a multiple-junction road network is a difficult but important problem. The essential difficulty of this problem is that the traffic signals need to coordinate their behaviours to achieve the common goal of optimi...
