Enriching Intrusion Alerts Through Multi-Host Causality: Current intrusion detection systems point out suspicious states or events but do not show how the suspicious state or events relate to other states or events in the system. This paper shows how to enrich an IDS alert with information about how those alerts causally lead to or result from...; Tags: Event, University Of Michigan, Intrusion, Attack, Security, Viruses And Worms; White papers 2008-01-01
MATE: MPLS Adaptive Traffic Engineering: Destination-based forwarding in traditional IP routers has not been able to take full advantage of multiple paths that frequently exist in Internet Service Provider Networks. As a result, the networks may not operate efficiently, especially when the traffic patterns are dynamic. This paper describes a multipath adaptive traffic engineering mechanism,...; Tags: MPLS, Network, University Of Michigan, Networking, Network Technology; White papers 2008-01-01
Data Security Standards: Integrity and Availability: The Data Preservation Alliance for the Social Sciences (Data-PASS) was formed to take shared responsibility for the long-term accessibility to social science datasets that are of value to current and future researchers and policy-makers. To maintain accessibility and support dissemination, the quality and integrity of the information within and about...; Tags: University Of Michigan, Standards, Data Security, Quality, Security, Business Operations; White papers 2007-07-31
Rethinking Antivirus: Executable Analysis in the Network Cloud: Antivirus software installed on each end host in an organization has become the de-facto security mechanism used to defend against unwanted executables. This paper argues that the executable analysis currently provided by host-based antivirus software can be more efficiently and effectively provided as an in-cloud network service. Instead of running...; Tags: Network, University Of Michigan, Antivirus, Analysis; White papers 2007-07-26
Low-Rate TCP-Targeted DoS Attack Disrupts Internet Routing: Compared to attacks against end hosts, Denial of Service DoS attacks against the Internet infrastructure such as those targeted at routers can be more devastating due to their global impact on many networks. The paper discovers that the recently identified low-rate TCP-targeted DoS attacks can have severe impact on the...; Tags: Network, University Of Michigan, Attack, TCP-Targeted DoS Attack, BGP, Internet, Security, Networking; White papers 2007-01-01

Geek Trivia: School of (moon) rock: Which university has a recognized alumni chapter on the moon? In just a few short years, a child will be born into a world that no longer includes space shuttle flights, and NASA is hard at work making sure our descendants have plenty of collectible space shuttle...; Tags: NASA, Official Flight Kit, Jay Garmon, Personal Preference Kit, astronaut, Geek Trivia Newsletter, TechRepublic Inc., University Of Michigan, Quibble, Michigan, Alumni Chapter, Public Relations, Workforce Management, Corporate Communications, Channel Management, Marketing, Human Resources; Technical articles 2006-12-12
Integrated Network Interfaces for High-Bandwidth TCP/IP: This paper proposes new Network Interface Controller NIC designs that take advantage of integration with the host CPU to provide increased flexibility for operating system kernel-based performance optimization. The authors believe that this approach is more likely to meet the needs of current and future high-bandwidth TCP/IP networking on end...; Tags: Network, University Of Michigan, Performance Management, Networking, Human Resources, Workforce Management; White papers 2006-10-21
WIND: Workload-Aware INtrusion Detection: Intrusion detection and prevention systems have become essential to the protection of critical networks across the Internet. Widely deployed IDS and IPS systems are based around a database of known malicious signatures. This database is growing quickly while at the same time the signatures are getting more complex. These trends...; Tags: Aware, University Of Michigan, Signature, Intrusion Detection, Storage, Network Security, Databases, Security, Hardware, Networking, Enterprise Software, Software, Data Management; White papers 2006-07-03
A Low-Power Dual-VDD Microprocessor for General Purpose Correlation Applications: This paper presents a 143 MHz 16-bit RISC microprocessor. The processor includes a reconfigurable multiplier that was customized for correlation algorithms. Low-power techniques such as dual-Vdd (2.5/1.8V) and clock gating reduced power by 39% without compromising performance. In addition to the correlator, an I/O interface is included that allows for...; Tags: University Of Michigan, Productivity, Processors, Engineering, Semiconductors, Hardware, Components; White papers 2006-04-23
Siren: Catching Evasive Malware (Short Paper): With the growing popularity of anomaly detection systems, which is due partly to the rise in zero-day attacks, a new class of threats have evolved where the attacker mimics legitimate activity to blend in and avoid detection. This paper proposes a new system called Siren that injects crafted human input...; Tags: University Of Michigan, Malware, Spyware, Adware & Malware, Cyberthreats, Security, Networking; White papers 2006-02-26
Optimizing Call Center Staffing Using Simulation and Analytic Center Cutting Plane Methods: The authors considered the problem of minimizing staffing costs in an inbound call center, while maintaining an acceptable level of service in multiple time periods. The problem is complicated by the fact that staffing level in one time period can affect the service levels in subsequent periods. The authors present...; Tags: Staffing, Call-center, University Of Michigan, Problem, Call Centers, It Operations; White papers 2005-07-20
Design and Implementation of Turbo Decoders for Software Defined Radio: Software Defined Radio SDR is an emerging paradigm for wireless terminals, in which the physical layer of communication protocols is implemented in software rather than by ASICs. Many of the current and next generation wireless protocols include Turbo coding because of its superior performance. However, Turbo decoding is computationally intensive,...; Tags: Software, DSP, University Of Michigan, Radio, Wireless, Turbo, Software Defined Radio, ASICs, Tools & Techniques, Semiconductors, Hardware, Management; White papers
A System Solution for High-Performance, Low Power SDR: One central challenge in the realization of Software Defined Radio SDR is to provide a programmable solution that meets the challenging high-performance, low-power requirements, while providing an efficient software development interface. This paper presents an overview of a fully programmable multi-core SIMD architecture for SDR. The solution can support 2Mbps...; Tags: Software, University Of Michigan, High-performance, Multi-core; White papers
Adaptive Distributed Multidimensional Scaling for Localization in Sensor Networks: Accurate, distributed localization algorithms are needed for a wide variety of wireless sensor network applications. This paper introduces a scalable, distributed weighted-MultiDimensional Scaling dwMDS algorithm that adaptively emphasizes the most accurate range measurements and naturally accounts for communication constraints within the sensor network.
