  1. MScEEM118 Research DissertationCITE, UEL Cryptography and Network Security Dr David Xiao D.Xiao@uel.ac.uk

  2. General idea of symmetric-key cipher

  3. Public-Key Cryptography Locking and unlocking in asymmetric-key cryptosystem

  4. Possible project areas: 1. Symmetric-key cryptography, DES, AES… 2. Asymmetric-key cryptography, RSA, Diffie-Hellman… 3. Reed-Solomon codes in error detection and correction of network communication. 4. Evaluation of network simulation software Network II and OPNET, and integration with MALTAB2006. 5. Wireless network security:

  5. 5. Wireless network security: 5.1 To assess the security posture of an organization's Ipsec based VPN architecture using IKEProbe. 5.2 To assess the security posture of an organization's network using IKE/IPSec authentication crack tool. 5.3 To assess the security posture of an organization's network using Ettercap, a Unix and Windows tool for computer network protocol analysis and security auditing. 5.4 To assess the wireless 802.11b network security using AirSnort for decrypting WEP encryption of Linux and Microsoft Windows utility. 5.5 To assess Weaknesses in the Key Scheduling Algorithm of RC4 (RSA). 5.6 To assess 802.11 wireless LANs using Aircrack-ng detector, packet sniffer, WEP and WPA/WPA2-PSK analysis tool for raw monitoring mode and sniff 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g traffic.
