Detecting Supervisory Control and Data Access (SCADA) malicious programs to protect Australian critical infrastructure. The security of SCADA systems has enormous impact to our national security and economy because they control and monitor critical infrastructure, like power, gas and water facilities and nuclear power plants, etc. This project aims to investigate the security issues and provide innovative technological solutions to detect and prevent such problems.
Designing Distributed Intrusion Detection Systems for Critical Industrial Infrastructures. SCADA systems are computerized systems that control and monitor industrial and critical infrastructures, such as power grid, gas and water facilities and nuclear power plants. Many cyber-attacks on SCADA systems make such systems vulnerable. Also there is an increasing risk that SCADA vulnerabilities could be exploited by terrorist organizations. The security of SCADA systems of critical infrastructures ha ....Designing Distributed Intrusion Detection Systems for Critical Industrial Infrastructures. SCADA systems are computerized systems that control and monitor industrial and critical infrastructures, such as power grid, gas and water facilities and nuclear power plants. Many cyber-attacks on SCADA systems make such systems vulnerable. Also there is an increasing risk that SCADA vulnerabilities could be exploited by terrorist organizations. The security of SCADA systems of critical infrastructures has enormous and direct impact to our national security, economy and social life because of potential disasters that could happen from natural causes as well as malicious attacks. This project aims to investigate the relevant issues and provide efficient and reliable technological solutions to detect and prevent such problems.Read moreRead less

Test bed for wide-area software defined networking research: This project aims to develop a wide-area test bed, spanning ten organisations, for conducting research and experimentation in the emerging disruptive technology of Software Defined Networking (SDN). SDN is likely to bring long-term transformation to the networking industry, much like cloud computing did, by enabling dynamic virtualised elastic network services under software control. The test bed will empower Australian researchers in network technologies and dependent applications (for example, multimedia and security) to collaboratively develop and demonstrate novel ideas at scale. This is expected to benefit Australia by giving our researchers international recognition in this nascent area, and developing a national talent pool for local industry.Read moreRead less

Stability and performance analysis for uncertain time-varying interconnected systems. This project will deliver new mathematical tools for the study of interconnected systems. This will broaden the scope for rigorously certifying engineered systems and understanding interactions in the natural world. Potential application areas include telecommunications, transport, water distribution, smart-grids, neuroscience and cell biology.
Tools and models for measuring and predicting growth in internet addressing and routing complexity. We analyse patterns in the allocation and actual use of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) addresses to predict the technical and market pressures for deployment of IPv6. The utilisation models will help evaluate the potential for emerging markets in scarce IPv4 address prefixes to increase costs to the end-users of Australia's future national broadband network.
