Robust next-generation detection techniques to defend operational networks against attacks. As networks are fast becoming one of the pillars of our society, network security is essential.
Without good security, networks will be unreliable, more costly, and restricted in the capabilities they can offer. The project will allow advanced anomaly and intrusion detection techniques to be used in the ultra-high speeds of the Internet core. It will provide the groundwork for the attack detection and p ....Robust next-generation detection techniques to defend operational networks against attacks.

High Performance Firewalls for Network Security. This project aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of firewall systems for defending the security of large networks. The role of a network firewall is to detect and block unauthorised network traffic. Our industry partner, IntelliGuard, is developing a parallel system architecture for firewalls, which will provide sufficient processing capacity to support more sophisticated traffic analysis in high speed networks. Our aim is to develop paral ....High Performance Firewalls for Network Security. This project aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of firewall systems for defending the security of large networks. The role of a network firewall is to detect and block unauthorised network traffic. Our industry partner, IntelliGuard, is developing a parallel system architecture for firewalls, which will provide sufficient processing capacity to support more sophisticated traffic analysis in high speed networks. Our aim is to develop parallel algorithms for traffic analysis and load balancing that can exploit the capacity of these new firewalls. This project provides an excellent opportunity for an Australian company to compete in the growing security market.Read moreRead less
Defending Against Attacks on Internet-Based Telephone Services (Voice Over IP). The telephone network is a critical platform for communication, used by all levels of society - government, the private sector and the general public. The shift to telephone services based on voice-over-IP technology holds the promise of significantly reducing costs for communication services. However, the Internet has long been plagued by a variety of network attacks. Reports of denial-of-service attacks, viruses an ....Defending Against Attacks on Internet-Based Telephone Services (Voice Over IP). The telephone network is a critical platform for communication, used by all levels of society - government, the private sector and the general public. The shift to telephone services based on voice-over-IP technology holds the promise of significantly reducing costs for communication services. However, the Internet has long been plagued by a variety of network attacks. Reports of denial-of-service attacks, viruses and break-in attempts frequently appear in the world news. A major impediment to confidence in voice-over-IP services is the risk of attacks on its infrastructure, and the potential for using weaknesses in voice-over-IP infrastructure to launch attacks on the existing telephone network.Read moreRead less
