Optimized multi-head self-attention and gated-dilated convolutional neural network for quantum key distribution and error rate reduction

ABSTRACT Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure communication method that enables two parties to securely exchange a secret key. The secure key rate is a crucial metric for assessing the efficiency and practical viability of a QKD system. There are several approaches that are utilized in practice to calculate the secure key rate. In this manuscript, QKD and error rate optimization based on optimized multi-head self-attention and gated-dilated convolutional neural network (QKD-ERO-MSGCNN) is proposed. Initially, the input signals are gathered from 6G wireless networks which face obstacles to channel. For extending maximum transmission distances and improving secret key rates, the signals are fed to the variable velocity strategy particle swarm optimization algorithm, then the signals are fed to MSGCNN for analysing the quantum bit error rate reduction. The MSGCNN is optimized by intensified sand cat swarm optimization. The performance of the QKD-ERO-MSGCNN approach attains 15.57%, 23.89%, and 31.75% higher accuracy when analysed with existing techniques, like device-independent QKD utilizing random quantum states, practical continuous-variable QKD and feasible optimization parameters, entanglement and teleportation in QKD for secure wireless systems, and QKD for large scale networks methods, respectively.

A fast and effective approach for microstrip filter design using GA and TL-model

Microwaves and RF technology and their components like filters, antennas, etc. are commonly used in wireless networking and communication systems, wireless security systems, radar systems, and environmental remote sensing. In this paper, a fast and effective procedure has been proposed for microstrip filter design using a genetic algorithm (GA) with a transmission line model (TL). GA is modified to be highly efficient and accurate by encoding the topology. For the fixed filter topology, the electrical parameters of the filter are encoded in a single chromosome. To make the proposed procedure fast and effective, a transmission line model has been employed to compute the fitness value in GA. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed procedure, a wideband second-order bandpass filter with a center frequency of 2.3 GHz is examined with a pair of short-circuited stubs and a pair of open-circuited stubs. The optimized design is validated using full-wave methods (MoM and EM simulator CST). The results show a low insertion loss of 0.1 dB and return loss better than 30 dB and a wide bandwidth of 46.95% with − 3 dB cutoff frequencies at 1.76 GHz and 2.84 GHz.

Entanglement and teleportation in quantum key distribution for secure wireless systems

AbstractEntanglement‐assisted quantum key distribution (QKD) has attracted significant attention for its ability to provide highly secure wireless systems. This work explores the employment of quantum teleportation and the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) in entanglement‐assisted QKD to enhance security. By integrating the concepts of entanglement, teleportation, and QFT, the key distribution strategy is significantly improved, leading to more secure communication. The system has been thoroughly tested for quantum bit error rate, secure key rate, and reconciliation efficiency. The results show that this technique outperforms the standard BB84 protocol. Based on their simulations, this protocol appears to be a promising technique for providing quantum‐level security to next‐generation wireless communication systems.

IoT RFID Lock Door Security System

Wireless security system is widely used and favored by many industries, leading to mass growth of this technology. Prior to that, many advancement has been made throughout the decades. One of the popular wireless security systems is the Radio Frequency Identification System or RFID. RFID is favored over other systems due to myriads of its application in current systems like ATM cards, national ID card, toll system, parking lot system, and even mobile phones. This paper proposes an improved design of an RFID security system utilizing a Wi-Fi capable microcontroller (ESP-8266/ESP-12E). Combining the RFID system with an IoT system shall provide user with maximum control and monitor over the system. In this system, a RFID module (MCRF522) and an ESP-12E are used to identify a RFID card UID, in which a relay will turn on if the card is authorized, and the otherwise if not. The information will then be transmitted over the internet to a database, in which the information will be accessible via an app created specifically for the system for flexible configuration by the host user.

Assessment and Test-case Study of Wi-Fi Security through the Wardriving Technique

This study aims to investigate Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) within the context of its applicability as a 21st-century business tool and its survivability in a security threat-infested cyber landscape. WLAN security leverages the Wardriving technique deployed within geolocation to scan for WLAN density and explore the associated security mechanisms. Specifically, the study adopts two approaches; the first part reviews relevant research articles in electronic libraries and databases on WLAN security based on wardriving techniques. The other part comprises a measurement campaign conducted in a mid-sized city in North Cyprus. The field measurement aims to underscore the claims from the literature to find out how the security encryption technologies are used. In particular, the goal is to determine the availability of WLAN infrastructure and monitor how the security measures are implemented in Northern Cyprus. The main objective is to determine the security state of WLAN in Cyprus and examine how it can be generalized for related environments. In order to completely grasp the research issue posed in this study, data analyses from several perspectives are analyzed and examined critically. The wardriving approach has been used in this work to crawl wider regions for examination. This study was conducted with security findings drawn only from publicly accessible information emitted by each investigated wireless access point. The channel usage, Service Set IDentifier (SSID) security, the Encryption type (Open, WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA3, and Mixed mode), WPS usage statistics, geographical locations, detailed security statistics described in Wigle CSV format, and vendor statistics are highlighted. Generally, results indicate that 21,345 WLANs were detected. From the detected WLANs, 23 (0.1 percent) used WEP encryption, 18 (0.08 percent) used WPA-TKIP encryption, 5,359 (25.1 percent) were unencrypted, and a clear majority of 9,139 (42.82 percent) used the more secure WPA2 encryption, while 13 networks (0.06 percent) used the latest WPA3 encryption technique. The results imply that WLAN security in Cyprus can be said to be moderate. Thus, this study adds to the expanding corpus of research on WLAN security and Wardriving to all parties in the wireless security ecosystem. The current study examines WLAN operations in North Cyprus while pointing to future research directions on Wireless LAN security mechanisms. Overall, the dataset from the wardriving experiment is novel and would serve future research exploration in the wireless security systems domain.

Analysis and Evaluation of Wireless Network Security with the Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES)

The use of computer networks in an agency aims to facilitate communication and data transfer between devices. The network that can be applied can be using wireless media or LAN cable. At SMP XYZ, most of the computers still use wireless networks. Based on the findings in the field, it was found that there was no user management problem. Therefore, an analysis and audit of the network security system is needed to ensure that the network security system at SMP XYZ is safe and running well. In conducting this analysis, a tool is needed which will be used as a benchmark to determine the security of the wireless network. The tools used are Penetration Testing Execution Standard (PTES) which is one of the tools to become a standard in analyzing or auditing network security systems in a company in this case, namely analyzing and auditing wireless network security systems. After conducting an analysis based on these tools, there are still many security holes in the XYZ wireless SMP that allow outsiders to illegally access and obtain vulnerabilities in terms of WPA2 cracking, DoS, wireless router password cracking, and access point isolation so that it can be said that network security at SMP XYZ is still not safe

An Internet of Things based Multi-Tiered Wireless Security System

In today’s contemporary culture, the need of taking precautions to protect one’s own belongings and privacy cannot be stressed. Because of this, an adaptive multilayer wireless security system, also known as ML-WSS, has been developed in order to monitor also safeguard a location with the assistance of the internet of things (IoT). In the hardware and software design of the ML- WSS, the sensors, the Wi-Fi module, also the process and monitoring mobile application all play key roles. The proposed method enables remote monitoring and management to take place finished the Internet also the ThingSpeak cloud, which is where the OMM application keeps the data that it has collected. The idea suggests slicing the crucial area into three distinct sectors, with sector 1 being the least dangerous, sector 2 being intermediate, and sector 3 being the most dangerous of the three. The criteria for the level of security should serve as a reference for both the placement of sensors and the classification of sensors according to the level of protection they give. Both of these processes should be carried out in accordance with the criteria. In the event that there is a breach in security, actions are carried out in accordance with these principles. A exact model also pseudocode were used in order to demonstrate the functionality of the planned system. It is reasonable to assert that the strategy used up to this point has been successful, given that level-3 locations now suffer from around half as many security breaches as level-1 areas.

METHOD OF DATA TRANSMISSION PROTECTION IN CYBERPHYSICAL SYSTEMS

Wireless networks are used to transmit data in cyberphysical systems. This creates an opportunity for attackers to intercept information and then decrypt it and use it for malicious purposes. Consequently, the need to increase the protection of transmitted data in cyberphysical systems increases. This is made possible by new approaches to ensuring the cryptographic stability of the wireless security system. The purpose of ensuring the protection of data transmission in a cyberphysical system is to create a method of encryption that even when intercepting data by decryption was not possible. After sending the test sequence, the attacker hopes to obtain the key sequence that was used during the encryption as a result of decrypting this sequence (reverse operation the sum of module 2 to the encrypted sequence). Having a code sequence and intercepting the following blocks of information, their decryption will not be difficult. Using the coding method for cyberphysical system data before encryption allows you to change the statistical characteristics of the input sequence of elements (message length, data volume, entropy, probability of occurrence of characters). These are the statistical characteristics that an attacker needs to decrypt data. Using encryption before encryption does not allow you to select the input test sequence and obtain the key. The statistical characteristics of the input data and the data obtained as a result of encoding (compression) before encryption were determined; it is established that the use of the proposed method allows to obtain data that are statistically independent of each other in the input and coded sequence; it is shown that the method of protection of data transmission in the cyberphysical system is working and allows to protect data of different volumes.

Smart and Reconfigurable Wireless Communications: From IRS Modeling to Algorithm Design

Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) have been introduced into wireless communications systems due to their great potential to smartly customize and reconfigure radio propagation environments in a cost-effective manner. Despite the promising advantages of IRSs, academic research on IRSs is still in its infancy. In particular, the design and analysis of IRS-assisted wireless communication systems critically depend on accurate and tractable modeling of the IRS. In this article, we first present and compare three IRS models, namely the conventional independent diffusive scatterer-based model, physics-based model, and impedance network-based model, in terms of their accuracy, tractability, and implementation simplicity. Furthermore, a new framework based on partitioning the IRS into tiles and employing codebooks of transmission modes is introduced to enable scalable IRS optimization. Then we investigate the impact of the three considered IRS models on system design, where several crucial technical challenges for the efficient design of IRS-assisted wireless systems are identified and the corresponding solutions are unraveled. Furthermore, to illustrate the properties of the considered models and the efficiency of the proposed solution concepts, IRS-assisted secure wireless systems and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer systems are studied in more detail. Finally, several promising future research directions for IRS-assisted wireless systems are highlighted.

Design and implementation of an adaptive multilevel wireless security system using IoT

Securing property plays a crucial role in human life. Therefore, an adaptive multilevel wireless security system (ML-WSS) based on the internet of things (IoT) has been proposed to observe and secure a certain place. ML-WSS consists of hardware and software components, such as a set of sensors, Wi-Fi module, and operation and monitoring mobile application (OMM). The OMM application is designed to remotely monitor and control the proposed system through the Internet and by using ThingSpeak cloud as a data store. The proposed scheme is based on dividing the required zone of the place into three regions (levels), low-risk region (LRR) as level-1, moderate-risk region (MRR) level-2, and high-risk region (HRR) as level-3. Each level may contain one or set of sensors, so the number of sensors, their placement, and under which level is labelled is specified according to the security requirements. Several processes are done based on these levels when a breach occurs in the system. Mathematical model and pseudocode were created to illustrate the mechanism of the proposed system. The results show that the proposed system has been implemented successfully and the number of breaches that occurs in level-3 area was reduced by 50% as compared to level-1.

From Constellation Dithering to NOMA Multiple Access: Security in Wireless Systems.

In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in interest in the possibilities of embedding additional data in the constellation of an already existing information signal in radio technology. This solution more precisely is based on adding a low power signal (or signals) to a stronger signal (cover). As will be described in the article, this technique is used in numerous radio communication areas, such as watermarking, covert channel creation, and multiple access techniques. Typically, those areas are considered as independent research topics. Our comparison suggests that these areas are closely related. In this article, a comprehensive survey of the implementation of signal superposition is conducted with an emphasis on the similarities and differences between individual solutions. Since the nature of the signal model entails certain problems in the security area, we provide the reader with a review of the state-of-the-art research on this topic, including the PLS (physical layer security) and LPD (low probability of detection) issues.

OPTIMALISASI KEAMANAN WIRELESS MENGGUNAKAN FILTERING MAC ADDRESS

The use 802.11 wireless-based network services have become one of the most widely used network services, this will be directly proportional to the security holes that are in the wireless network. The rise of access rights theft in wireless networks is due to the large number of software and tools available on the internet to read encryption in wireless security. To minimize the occurrence of theft of access rights in wireless networks can use a layered security system by implementing security Hotspot login and MAC Address Filtering. This layered wireless network security is able to block users who try to access the network. This is because the wireless network security system has verified access rights 2 (two) times by matching the username and password in the hotspot login with the physical address or MAC address of the client. From the research results obtained by clients who use a username and password with different devices can not access the computer network. So every client who wants to connect to the internet network must use a device that has registered its MAC Address and in accordance with user access rights and passwords in the Hotspot login

A Product Channel Attack to Wireless Physical Layer Security

We propose a novel attack that compromises the physical layer security in wireless systems with eavesdropper's channel state information at the transmitter side. This technique is based on the transmission of a slowly-varying random symbol by the eavesdropper during its uplink transmission, so that the equivalent fading channel observed at the base station (BS) has a larger variance. Then, the BS designs the secure downlink transmission under the assumption that the eavesdropper's channel experiences a larger fading severity than in reality. We show that this approach can lead the BS to transmit to Bob at a rate larger than the secrecy capacity, thus compromising the system secure operation. Our analytical results, corroborated by simulations, show that the use of multiple antennas at the BS may partially alleviate but not immunize against these type of attacks.

Authentication and Secrecy of Multicast Communication Scenario: Artificial Noise-Aided Costas Sequence Matrix FDA Approach

In multicast communication scenario, the desired users are decomposed into M groups to receive private M useful data from the transmitter, while eavesdroppers (Eves) group tries to intercept. Since wireless security system consists of authentication and secure transmission, we propose directional modulation (DM) artificial noise (AN) matrix-aided Costas sequence (CS) matrix frequency diverse array (FDA) in multicast precoding systems in this paper. Specifically, we utilize the CS matrix for desired groups authentication (i.e., group identity), and it is shared via a low-speed forward link in advance. Next, we design AN matrix-aided FDA to offer robust antieavesdropping method based on leakage concept. Furthermore, we devise secrecy metrics, namely, secrecy outage probability (SOP), asymptotic Eve’s detectability error probability, and average useful data leakage rate, based on the scenario where Eve’s instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is unavailable. In addition, we numerically analyze the proposed energy beamforming focusing and evaluate the secrecy energy efficiency. Via simulation results, the proposed scheme gives important insights into how to design and measure secrecy performances in multicast scenarios.

Over the last decade the continuous improvements in sensor technologies, connected with recent hardware reconfigurable devices evolution, enable engineers to merge sensors and reconfigurable devices to develop new applications or to improve the existing ones. The miniaturization and integration of multiple sensors in one chip and the increase of precision, stability and power efficiency allow sensors to play an even more important role in medical technology with the main objective of building more accurate and smaller devices that help medical personal to monitor human biomedical parameters.
