Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) networks is becoming the most popular telephony system in the world. However, studies of the security of VoIP networks are still in their infancy. VoIP devices and networks are commonly attacked, and it is therefore necessary to analyze the threats against the converged network and the techniques that exist today to stop or mitigate these attacks. We also need to understand what evidence can be obtained from the VoIP system after an attack has occurred....
Show moreVoice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) networks is becoming the most popular telephony system in the world. However, studies of the security of VoIP networks are still in their infancy. VoIP devices and networks are commonly attacked, and it is therefore necessary to analyze the threats against the converged network and the techniques that exist today to stop or mitigate these attacks. We also need to understand what evidence can be obtained from the VoIP system after an attack has occurred. Many of these attacks occur in similar ways in different contexts or environments. Generic solutions to these issues can be expressed as patterns. A pattern can be used to guide the design or simulation of VoIP systems as an abstract solution to a problem in this environment. Patterns have shown their value in developing good quality software and we expect that their application to VoIP will also prove valuable to build secure systems. This dissertation presents a variety of patterns (architectural, attack, forensic and security patterns). These patterns will help forensic analysts as well, as secure systems developers because they provide a systematic approach to structure the required information and help understand system weaknesses. The patterns will also allow us to specify, analyze and implement network security investigations for different architectures. The pattern system uses object-oriented modeling (Unified Modeling Language) as a way to formalize the information and dynamics of attacks and systems.

- Multimedia Big Data Processing Using Hpcc Systems.
- Creator
- Chinta, Vishnu, Kalva, Hari, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
- Abstract/Description
-
There is now more data being created than ever before and this data can be any form of data, textual, multimedia, spatial etc. To process this data, several big data processing platforms have been developed including Hadoop, based on the MapReduce model and LexisNexis’ HPCC systems. In this thesis we evaluate the HPCC Systems framework with a special interest in multimedia data analysis and propose a framework for multimedia data processing. It is important to note that multimedia data...
Show moreThere is now more data being created than ever before and this data can be any form of data, textual, multimedia, spatial etc. To process this data, several big data processing platforms have been developed including Hadoop, based on the MapReduce model and LexisNexis’ HPCC systems. In this thesis we evaluate the HPCC Systems framework with a special interest in multimedia data analysis and propose a framework for multimedia data processing. It is important to note that multimedia data encompasses a wide variety of data including but not limited to image data, video data, audio data and even textual data. While developing a unified framework for such wide variety of data, we have to consider computational complexity in dealing with the data. Preliminary results show that HPCC can potentially reduce the computational complexity significantly.
