Abstract—Accurately localization using WiFi fingerprinting is an important issue. As many sensors can be exposed to attacks, we need to be sure about the validity of the received data and to get the accurate position inspite of the presence of attack. We address the problem of detecting malicious attacks to the sensors of a WiFi fingerprinting network. Here, we suggest a novel algorithm to detect the attack using statistical measurement.
We expose our data to a spoofing attack algorithm to see the effect of our attack detection algorithm. We are able to enhance the prediction of locations in presence of attack by using our detection scheme.

The term cyber-physical systems (CPS) refers to a new systems with integrated computational and physical capa-bilities that can interact with humans through many new modalities [1]. CPS have been at the core of critical in-frastructures and industrial control systems for years. CPS are becoming more vulnerable to computer attacks for many reasons [3]. There are many challenges for securing cyber-physical systems [2].
Indoor localization is an example of cyber-physical systems.
For outdoor localization, a Global Navigation Satellite System
(GNSS) such as Global Positioning System (GPS) can be used. However, GPS is not suitable for indoor environments as the satellite signals cannot penetrate walls or roof of buildings [10] [11].
Indoor localization
The Project is the first stage of the MCS project which is an organisation wide upgrade of monitoring and control systems and consists of a whole portfolio of projects.

There are millions of pieces of new technology on the market today all with differing applications which can be very useful to whomever buys them; however, there is a fine line between using the devices to improve our intelligence and becoming entirely dependent
Our final application is also our favorite and nearest to our hearts: the Ethoskeleton utilizes an advance neural linking technology in a similar manner to Bluetooth to hook directly into its wearer’s brain. This opens up a variety of possibilities for interaction, with the most impactful allowing the physically disabled to use limbs and senses that they lack or cannot utilize. The Ethoskeleton carries everything from a 3D camera to touch sensitive pads located along its frame, allowing its wearer to experience sensations either forgotten or completely
This technology is made possible by advancements in artificial intelligence, which brings us to our next innovation of note.
In 1879, Alphonse Bertillion invented the Bertillion method to record the measurements of a criminal’s body to keep track of criminals in France’s prisons and jails. In 1887, R.W. McClaughry, Warden of the Illinois State Penitentiary, introduced the Bertillion method to the United States; however, over time, the Bertillion method had been reduced to only taking the fingerprint. Fingerprinting turned into evidence for forensic science to reconstruct crime scenes around the world, and in the United States, the use of fingerprinting by the government became more widespread to reconstruct crime scenes instead of only preventing crimes.

Of course, as far as we known, these technologies are not advanced enough for practical use, but is is the notion that something as bizarre and as devious as mind control is a potential reality. Our modern-day society is worried about the threats to our cyber-security, but now our concerns are evolving to threats of our neuro-security. An even more frightening fact is that there is no such thing as a BBI machine, because the technology to create a brain-to-brain connection has been around since 1875; we just didn’t know how to use it. All that was needed to create a brain-to-brain interface in the experiments done by the University of Washington were an electroencephalograph (EEG) and a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) coil, two pieces of machinery that can be found in most an hospital (Ma 2). In fact, the threats to neuro-security may not be as far in the future as previously assumed. The need for cumbersome, impractical hospital equipment in order to achieve brain-to-brain communication, according to Dr. Dae-Hyeong Kim, who has been doing research into “discrete epidermal electronics” involving BBI (1). It has already been confirmed through the University of Washington that BBI can be held over the internet, and through the use of “extremely thin grids of electrical sensors applied directly to the outside of the
If you are like most business owners, you are tired of employees clocking in for other employees. Time theft costs your business thousands of dollars each year, and why should you pay for hours that your employees were not on the clock? The problem with the obsolete time card is that there is no security with them. Using the fingerprint attendance system, you will have a solution that lets you place your finger on the scanner and record your time.
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) should implement radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags in the airport’s baggage-handling operations for a variety of reasons. First, implementing this system will be beneficial to airport workers, travelers, and the airlines. Second, the cost of lost luggage fees and millions of dollars being spent in reimbursements will be significantly reduced. Third, the overall control of luggage will be more efficient and effective. Fourth, traveler satisfaction will improve, as the luggage process will be hassle free.
Akin to the concept of body language, The Authored Object proposes to utilize technological advancements in engineering to make an architecture with the ability to physically alter its volume and orientation to provoke a new behavioural complexity. Such that
A finger print is unique for each individual. Using finger prints when students are borrowing books from the library will ensure that a student does not use a fake name, and this will reduce the number of books the library losses. The finger print scanner will be connected to the school's library system, and will automatically populate the fields once the student's finger print is read. The finger print scanner will serve as a fundamental tool for the librarian and will reduce their verification work. In case, a student's finger print has not been recorded, the librarian can easily capture the student's records, and since the scanner is linked to the school's system registration is a very easy step.
In 1997, President William J. Clinton, as cited by Woodward (2003), states that having right to privacy is one of the most cherished freedoms by individuals. However, most of the consumers today just cares about the convenience brought by technology. Many consumers do not like passwords and PINs because it might be forgotten due to its complexity or it might took a lot of time to be authenticated. Fingerprint authentication was implemented to address these problems. Vacca (2007) remarks that consumers will use fingerprint authentication because of its convenience (p. 121). Although finger-scan technology provides the convenience, which consumers always wanted, without sacrificing security, this technology infringes their privacy at the same time. Individuals lose their anonymity when they disclose their biometric information. Woodward (1997) states that the individual is disclosing an
Use of an MPD system can result in a large reduction in NPT due to dealing with operational events affectively. This is evident in the case study where a twist-off was encountered. In this instance, the MPD with CCS combination proved
Over the past couple of decades technology has grown in leaps and bounds. We’ve gone from clunky computers and dial-up internet to a computer the size of a phone and 3G internet. We’ve made incredible medical advances, and we’re finally also starting to use our technology to better help our planet, but there’s still so much to create, discover, and learn about. Here are some crazy technologies that could be available by 2025.
