If the mobile node moves out of its home network, it starts searching a new router called access router to provide service from the visited network. With the help of AR the mobile node will maintain connectivity with its home agent. But if the mobile node joins with a new network, topologically it’s not possible to maintain the address assigned by the home network. So a new address called Care of Address will be assigned by the AR, then the mobile node has to send an update to its home agent about its new care of address. The process of updating new care of address to the respective home agent or correspondent node is called as Binding Update (BU). This process is implemented once again if the mobile node performs hand off. The mobile nodes duty is to update the new binding always to home agent; it ensures the message integrity between these nodes and assures the home agent about the legitimate mobile node. Binding Acknowledgement (BA) message will be a reply from home agent for the update.
An attacker may claim spoofed information that a particular legitimate mobile node is in different location than where it really is. If home agent believes that information and works based on it, then the respective mobile node may not get the traffic at all. A malicious mobile node may use the home address of a victim legitimate node in forged binding update sent to a correspondent node. These kinds of attacks generate the threats against the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the mobile nodes. An attacker may go through the contents of a packet destined to another node by redirecting the traffic to it. This leads to man in middle attack between mobile node and the correspondent node. An attacker may also send forged binding up...

The use of Return Routability procedure provides good support to MIPv6 without any security issues. This procedure verifies the message exchange between the home agent and mobile node’s care of address to ensure if both the nodes are reachable. The Binding Update messages are exchanged cryptographically. When symmetric attack is used always the response is sent to the node from where the request has come, which avoids the reflection attack. The correspondent node must wait for authorized binding update form the mobile node. The encapsulation (tunnel) also carried out through encryption between home agent and mobile node with IPSec ESP. Nonse exchange through tunnel avoids the possibility of attackers to verify the nonse message, hence the attack from the visited network can also be prevented.

As the Fig 1 showing, the node which generates the packet is the source node. There are many sensor nodes in a 3-D interest area. The packet is delivered among these sensor nodes and finally try to reach one sink node. Sink nodes are deployed on the water surface. In the figure, it is a multiple-sink topology. Multiple sinks equipped both radio-frequency and acoustic modems are fixed on the water surface.The packet is assumed delivered successfully if it reaches any one of the sink nodes because sink nodes use radio-frequency channel to communicate with each other which is several orders of magnitudes faster than acoustic channel.
National Missile Defense (NMD) is an extremely complex land-based ballistic missile system with the sole purpose of defending the United States against a ballistic missile attack from a foreign country. The NMD architecture consists of five main components.
Progressive technological development has paved the way for the ever increasing addition of multiple disparate devices. Devices which have the capability to connect to each other over a network affording them the ability to communicate with ease. Unfortunately the improved proficiency for communication carries with it a negative impact on information security. This detriment comes through the increased possibility of data loss and vulnerability exploitation. In this paper, we will seek to define one such measure to ensure security; by utilizing the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). We will also explore the strengths and vulnerabilities of the Trusted Platform Module as well as attacks against the TPM both in terms of hardware and software.
The mobile network is less secure because the user’s location can be monitored easily with gps and all their information can be accessed with little effort. With all this information easily accessible it puts a lot of people’s information at risk. In many apps and
It is difficult to define cyberculture because its boundaries are uncertain and applications to certain circumstances can often be disputed. The common threads of defining cyberculture is a culture which has evolved and continues to evolve from the use of computer networks and the internet and is guided by social and cultural movements reflective of advancements in scientific and technological information. It is not a unified culture but rather a culture that exists in cyberspace and is a compilation of numerous new technologies and capabilities, used by diverse people in diverse real – world locations. Cyberculture, a twentieth century phenomena, has brought challenges unlike any other that the United States has seen in the areas of cyber security and its impact on our most critical institutions. This presentation will focus on the aforementioned three entities where national security is in jeopardy in part due to cyberculture and its intentional use for disruptive and destructive purposes. Breaches of security to the United States Department of Defense, the national power grid and the Chamber of Commerce are very real and omnipresent.

Cell phones use radio frequencies to transmit signals. Radio Frequencies (RF) are a form of electrical waves similar to those used in radios, microwaves, radars or satellite stations. They are emitted from a transmitter, and received using an antenna. This telephony technology is restricted geographically to small zones called “Cells”. Every cell has a base station capable of sending and receiving radio waves. When a call is started a signal leaves the handheld unit headed to the closest base station. This station answers by allocating a specific channel to the unit. When this “channel” is established, modulated radio frequency signals are both received and transmitted. The head of the user is in the near field of use because the distance from the antenna to the head is a few centimeters. (Blettner & Berg 2000) If the antenna is inside the body of the phone, the exposure to Radio Frequencies is greater. The antenna might be requesting a stronger signal to contest with the interference of the battery or the actual shell of the phone’s body.

Network Security is the protection of the computer’s network though out the entire infrastructure. It can protect very important information and computer files to help prevent theft, spyware, malware, viruses, and more. Depending on if you have a public or private network, can determine what type of security settings you need for your network. All people are different on what they want to have secured or not, but most people do not know how to prevent people or things from getting in their network. “You must have a general understanding of security terminology and specifications as it relates to configuring hardware and software systems.”(Roberts, Richard M. 599). That quote states that by knowing and understanding security terms and specifics, you can

ABSTRACT : This paper describes the basic threats to the network security and the basic issues of interest in designing a secure network. it describes the important aspects of network security. A secure network is one which is free of unauthorized entries and hackers. INTRODUCTION
A firewall is a network device, hardware, software, or a combination of the two, whose purpose is to enforce a security policy across its connections. It is comparable to a wall that has a window where the wall serves to keep things out, except those permitted through the window. A security policy acts like the glass in the window; it permits some things to pass, light, while blocking others, air. The heart of a firewall is the security policy that it enforces.
Wireless is everywhere today whether at home working from your WIFI network to work where you might be linked a wireless network or even through your phone through a 3G or 4G network to connecting to an open wireless networks. As you can see for the most part people are connecting to wireless from the moment they leave their home till they get to work and then back. While wireless comm...
There is no mobile phone network coverage in a dead zone. These are both indoor and outdoor problem locations where a signal is not available. Calls are often dropped in certain buildings, homes and outdoor locations across the nation. It is very frustrating when you experience no coverage from your home, office or car due to inconsistent service. Cell phones need towers and antennas for calls to go through. More cell phone towers will have to be built to eliminate the gaps in coverage. Cities that host the towers will benefit from the additional revenue the towers gener...
