Authentication

commodity that individuals and global corporations use to grow financially, economically, and independently. The protection and security of the information is essential. One of the most vital foundations of protection information is the authentication process. The authentication process is utilized to protect computer and network systems against various types of security threats, such as password-cracking tools, password dictionary attacks, mistreatment of user access rights, and any potential unauthorized

even more robust and powerful. We propose to different authentication scheme to one system, and this will lend more stability and make the attacks on user privacy even more difficult to succeed in. We proposed a system with graphical password scheme, Color code authentication, OTP based authentication, and Time Elapse Authentication scheme composed as a 4-D Authentication system. I. INTRODUCTION Today, although the password authentication is used widely, since users write their password directly

regular, as the hackers can intrude the older version assuming it’s still running, newer versions of software cannot be updated that easily.  Strong passwords prevent the access of unauthorized intruders to the workstation. Flaws in Kerberos • Authentication

This report started with a motivational empirical study of the usability, security, and privacy of enhanced fingerprint authentication as compared to password-based authentication. This study revealed that the password-based authentication lacks usability and security, while the privacy-enhanced fingerprint authentication is more usable than password-based authentication. However fingerprint data on the cloud poses a greater likelihood for attacks. A risk assessment was conducted to evaluate the

allowing/requiring their employees to work and connect remotely, authentication plays a key role in the security of a corporation. With sensitive data being available outside of a localized network, it is important to verify the identity of connecting employees in a secure and encrypted way to prevent interception by attackers that would hope to gain by a lapse in security. There are different methods for which this authentication can be achieved. Some are more secure than others but all should

In the era of this modern and ubiquitously connected world, an organization’s security posture can determine its fate, attacks are committed by nefarious actors worldwide every day, it is important that an organization follow security industry’s best practice and governing laws and regulations, go a step further in protecting not only its own data but also all data and information especially regarding clients. This paper will discuss the way a Security as a Service Provider – Secured Inc. which had

First Rate Hospital (FRH) has reluctantly agreed to develop a pilot program to allow staff to bring your own device (BYOD) into the hospital. Security is the number one concern for FRH; therefore, the pilot program will consist of a dedicated “public” wireless network separate from the hospital’s core infrastructure. Visitors to the hospital will also be permitted access to this new network. Critical Elements and Technologies This pilot program is a large and expensive undertaking. This will

are options and workarounds, but each one involves compromise in terms of network security and/or management complexity. [callout box] » OPTIONS FOR HANDLING NON-802.1X ENDPOINTS • Deny All (not realistic!) • Whitelist All (not secure!) • MAC Authentication Bypass (doable, but manually intensive) [end of callout box] One option (though seldom feasible) is to simply deny network access to all non-802.1X endpoints. For most organizations this is really not an option since many of the non-802.1X endpoints

CSCI 652-Telecom and Networking Security Kotcherlakota Nitin Z1747551 Q: X.805 security architecture, how it compares with the X.800 network security access architecture A: X.805 architecture was developed by the Telecommunications standardization sector of the International Telecommunications Union X.805 (ITU-T X.805) on October 2003 to provide end to end transmission of data from one network to another. The Security architecture logically separates complicated arrangement of end to end system’s

Assignment No. 1 1a. Discuss how the RFC 4949 distinguishes between confidentiality and privacy. In the context of network security, confidentiality is a technical term. The RFC 4949 defines Confidentiality as the property that information is not made available or hidden from unauthorized individuals like hackers, etc., entities, or processes i.e., to any unauthorized system entity e.g. spoofs, etc. Privacy is the basic reason for security rather than a kind or sub-type of security. For example
