“…Most of the literature reviewed is focused on degradation techniques, and inside them, in two main directions: the first one is the characterization of electronic attacks against WiFi networks; for example, in [37,38] the authors propose a classification of DoS attacks in wireless infrastructures, based on the network layer in which the attack is performed, from the physical layer to the application one. As stated before, this kind of techniques is outside of the scope of this paper because they are closer to EA than to CNA.…”

Destructive and control operations are today a major threat for cyber physical systems. These operations, known as Computer Network Attack (CNA), and usually linked to state-sponsored actors, are much less analyzed than Computer Network Exploitation activities (CNE), those related to intelligence gathering. While in CNE operations the main tactics and techniques are defined and well structured, in CNA there is a lack of such consensuated approaches. This situation hinders the modeling of threat actors, which prevents an accurate definition of control to identify and to neutralize malicious activities. In this paper, we propose the first global approach for CNA operations that can be used to map real-world activities. The proposal significantly reduces the amount of effort need to identify, analyze, and neutralize advanced threat actors targeting cyber physical systems. It follows a logical structure that can be easy to expand and adapt.

“…A related discussion, in the context of the power grid has been developed and a complete taxonomy of attacks including jamming has been presented in [10]. The authors discuss the obstruction of wireless sensor networks caused by jamming attacks in [11]. Using simulated scenarios and results, the significance of such obstructions could be determined.…”

Over time, the use of wireless technologies has significantly increased due to bandwidth improvements, cost-effectiveness, and ease of deployment. Owing to the ease of access to the communication medium, wireless communications and technologies are inherently vulnerable to attacks. These attacks include brute force attacks such as jamming attacks and those that target the communication protocol (Wi-Fi and Bluetooth protocols). Thus, there is a need to make wireless communication resilient and secure against attacks. Existing wireless protocols and applications have attempted to address the need to improve systems security as well as privacy. They have been highly effective in addressing privacy issues, but ineffective in addressing security threats like jamming and session hijacking attacks and other types of Denial of Service Attacks. In this paper, we present an "architecture for resilient wireless communications" based on the concept of Moving Target Defense. To increase the difficulty of launching successful attacks and achieve resilient operation, we changed the runtime characteristics of wireless links, such as the modulation type, network address, packet size, and channel operating frequency. The architecture reduces the overhead resulting from changing channel configurations using two communication channels, in which one is used for communication, while the other acts as a standby channel. A prototype was built using Software Defined Radio to test the performance of the architecture. Experimental evaluations showed that the approach was resilient against jamming attacks. We also present a mathematical analysis to demonstrate the difficulty of performing a successful attack against our proposed architecture.

“…In [22] the author has presented some DoS attack and have suggested some solution for detecting and solving certain attack. They have categorized some DoS attacks according to protocol stack layers and have described sinkhole, Hello flooding, wormhole, selective forwarding attack for network layer and flooding attack for the transport layer.…”

<span>Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a collection of wireless sensor nodes which are distributed in nature and a base station where the dispersed nodes are used to monitor and the physical conditions of the environment is recorded and then these data are organized into the base. Its application has been reached out from critical military application such as battlefield surveillance to traffic, health, industrial areas, intruder detection, security and surveillance. Due to various features in WSN it is very prone to various types external attacks. Preventing such attacks, intrusion detection system (IDS) is very important so that attacker cannot steal or manipulate data. Data mining is a technique that can help to discover patterns in large dataset. This paper proposed a data mining technique for different types of classification algorithms to detect denial of service (DoS) attacks which is of four types. They are Grayhole, Blackhole, Flooding and TDMA. A number of data mining techniques, such as KNN, Naïve Bayes, Logistic Regression, support vector machine (SVM) and ANN algorithms are applied on the dataset and analyze their performance in detecting the attacks. The analysis reveals the applicability of these algorithms for detecting and predicting such attacks and can be recommended for network specialist and analysts. </span>
