Research Title: “Software Defined Network Based Algorithm to Mitigate ARP Spoofing in Multi-LAN”

RESEARCH STATEMENT

Abstract

A protocol that is vulnerable to lingering threats and its security less thought is the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), we have always been keen on securing our networks unfortunately, the threats that the network could have from the inside have been less considered. Local Area Networks (LAN) have always been vulnerable due to their no authentication and stateless nature.

The Denial of Service (DOS) attacks and the Man-In-The-Middle (MiTM) attacks. Time and again solutions have been devised/proposed in legacy networks for securing ARP over a LAN. Notwithstanding a complete solution is still expected.

With the emergence of Software Defined Network (SDN) this protocol can be secured either the LAN is on a single switch or multiple switches. The computer networks are expanding at a greater scale; therefore, the vulnerabilities of ARP Protocol can be addressed easily with the emerging technologies and especially with Software Defined Networks.

My work examined the existing solutions and proposed to adopt the SDN approach to address the vulnerabilities and devise a module that inspects ARP Packets and creates a temporary table by populating the table with verified MAC addresses for Local Area Network (LAN) communication.

In my study, I analyzed ARP attacks both in Single and Multiple Switch environments and proposed a solution to mitigate the attacks by leveraging SDN (Software Defined Networks).

Research Title: “Information Decision System for Products Management”

FINAL YEAR PROJECT

My final project was to analyze, design and to implement a MIS system for the China Telecom to maintain records for their products the title of my project was “Information Decision System for Products Management”.

The project was developed in Borland Delphi 3.0 language (a complete object-oriented language).

Interbase 3.0 (RDBMS) was used as the background of the application.
