RatHole: Authentication Algorithm for Controling Access to Mobile Phone File Management System

Shoulder surfing is an easy attack, where an unauthorized user tries to gain access to sensitive information. Unfortunately, none of the currently available content-based shoulder-surfing approaches for protected graphical concealed keywords are both trustworthy and professional. This paper proposes an authentication technique that operates on touchscreen devices with an aim to solve the problem of shoulder-surfing assaults over validation. Graphical passwords are required to get access to the system and to assist with its security. A graphical password is a type of password that can be used instead of a textual password to gain access to a system. It is safer than a written password, which is vulnerable to a shoulder-surfing assault. In this study, we used a falsification technique to create a system that is immune to shoulder-surfing assaults. As a result, the hacker will be perplexed when attempting to obtain and misuse the password. Using Android Studio, the proposed scheme was developed into an android application composed of shoulder-surfing resistant user registration and login process. When compared with other graphical password techniques based on images, the proposed the technique of graphical authentication mechanism with numbers/digits is more easy to memorize and has less cognitive strain on the user. Our graphical authentication technique has more complexity and larger password space than the conventional numeric password schemes, making it a superior method for safeguarding against shoulder surfing attacks. To meet customer expectations, this project seeks to design a graphical password by combining processes such as long key press, and acceleration detection mechanism of Android devices.

Problem statement: In 802.11-based Wireless LAN (WLAN), there is an mproved risk of security attacks. To defeat concealed attacks, there is a necessity to authenticate both access points and wireless stations. Approach: We propose a defensive technique for DDoS attack in WLAN. This authentication technique includes an Authentication Server (AS) in addition to the Wireless Station (WS) and Access Point (AP). Results: The authentication server holds both normal and attacker databases. The attacker database can be constructed from the outcome of fuzzy decision making. After WS and AP registers itself with AS, WS sends authentication request message to AS through the nearest AP. Before granting the session key for the WS, the AS checks the occurrence of WS in the attacker database. If it is found to be an attacker, AS denies the session key for the WS, there by isolating the WS from further communications. In order to prevent the authentication request flooding attacks, traffic pattern filtering rule is implemented. Conclusion/Recommendations: By simulation results, we show that the proposed technique is more efficient defensive mechanism against DDoS attack.

Phishing is an attempt by an individual or a group of person to steal personal information such as password, banking account and credit card information, etc. Most of these phishing web pages look similar to the real web pages in terms of website interface and uniform resource locator (URL) address. Many techniques have been proposed to detect phishing websites, such as Blacklist-based technique, Heuristic-based technique, etc. However, these techniques are still inefficient. While Blacklist-based techniques cannot detect the phishing sites that are not in the blacklist database, the weights of the heuristic in the heuristic-based approach significantly depend on the statistics from the training dataset. Therefore, a new phishing detection approach in which either the new phishing websites can be detected or the weights of the heuristic are derived objectively is necessary. In this paper, an efficient approach for detecting phishing websites based on the single-layer neural network is proposed. Specifically, the proposed technique calculates the value of heuristics objectively. Then, the weights of heuristic are generated by a single-layer neural network. The proposed technique is evaluated with a dataset of 11,660 phishing sites and 10,000 legitimate sites. The results show that the technique can detect over 98% phishing sites.

With the rapidly advancing technology of today, exchange of information and data is a very pertinent matter. The world has just recently witnessed the effects of information leakage through the issue of WikiLeaks. There are huge amounts of data being shared over different platforms nowadays. Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) is one of the most reliable platforms known to and used by almost all people in the world for text as well as voice communication. With the tools like Android Studio and NetBeans available, it is now possible to encrypt the text that has to be sent over the GSM, so that it can be decrypted at the other end of the communication path. However, the encryption and decryption of voice being transmitted over the GSM network still remains a question. In the domain of real time voice encryption, much of the work being carried out pertains to the voice being exchanged through the Internet Protocol. As compared to the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), voice over the GSM network has not seen much research work related to its security aspects. The purpose of this paper is to document the results of a project aimed at developing a platform for mobile phones in order to communicate over the GSM network in a secure manner. The most suitable method for achieving the above mentioned objective is to use an open source Operating System (OS), so that the source code is easily accessible and usable. In this paper, the Android OS will be under discussion, which is compatible with all the Android mobile phones. In this way, the maximum number of mobile phone users can be benefitted because Android cell phones are being widely used nowadays. The use of cryptographic algorithms for securing the voice communication over the GSM network is also a part of this paper. The work revolves around the Java programming language since the Android application development has been carried out in Java through the use of Android Studio. Also, NetBeans has been employed for developing algorithms for voice encryption

Modern cellular phones are potent computing de-vices, and their capabilities are constantly progressing. The Android operating system (OS) is widely used, and the number of accessible apps for Android OS phones is unprecedented. The increasing capabilities of these phones imply that they have distinctive software, memory designs, and storage mechanisms. Furthermore, they are increasingly being used to commit crimes at an alarming rate. This aspect has heightened the need for digital mobile forensics. Because of the rich user data they store, they may be relevant in forensic investigations, and the data must be extracted. However, as this study will show, most of the available tools for mobile forensics rely greatly on rooted (Android) devices to extract data. Rooting, as some of the selected papers in this research will show, poses a key challenge for forensic analysts: user data integrity. Rooting per se, as will be seen, is disadvantageous. It is possible for forensic analysts to extract useful data from Android phones via rooting, but the user data integrity during data acquisition from Android devices is a prime concern. In suggesting an alternative rooting technique for data acquisition from an Android handset, this paper determines whether rooting is forensically sound. This is particularly due to the device’s modification, which a root often requires, that may violate the data integrity.

Android devices are popular nowadays due to their rich functionality and good performance. Android provides a permission model that supports user privacy by protecting restricted data access and actions on the Android operating system. Based on the app's defined functionality, any app must get users' permission to access different types of restricted data or resources. However, some developers request additional permissions other than the app's functionality, known as over-claim permissions. These over-claim permissions may steal sensitive information from users, Which is one of the leading privacy issues. Looking towards its criticality, many researchers have started working on detecting over-claim permission. This paper conducts a comprehensive survey of various approaches to identify and handle over-claim permissions. It also discusses the limitations of existing techniques and further research scope in this direction, which may help researchers define a path for designing new methods or optimizing existing strategies to resolve over-claim permission problems satisfactorily.
