Analysis of communication data of mobile terminal based on protocol reversal by Mingyuan ZHANG, Xinyu QI, Yubo SONG, Rongrong GU, Aiqun HU, Zhenchao ZHU

“…The most problem in analysis of communication protocols and communication data for mobile terminals is that many mobile applications do not have the relevant public technical documents,and it is difficult to know the type of communication protocol it adopts.The instruction execution sequence analysis technique takes the instruction sequence executed by the program as a research object,and inversely infers the message format and the state machine to obtain the communication protocol.However,due to the incomplete collection of sequence information,the state machine infers that the inference is incomplete and cannot be effective.A novel protocol reverse scheme based on state machine comparison is proposed,which can be used for the forensics of mobile terminal communication data.The scheme first uses PIN for dynamical identification of the taint,and track it and analyzes the trajectory to obtain the message format.Secondly,the message clustering is performed on the basis of the message format to infer the protocol state machine.Finally,the LCS algorithm is used to compare the state machines to get a complete protocol state machine.This article tests and evaluates the scheme based on two types of application design experiments on the Android platform.The experimental results show that the results are both complete and real-time,and have practical value.…”

“…Aiming at the problem of security isolation of multi-tenant data in cloud environment,a tenant virtual domain isolation construction method based on L-DHT was proposed.Firstly,through the design of multi-tenant isolation mapping algorithm based on label-hash mapping,the balanced mapping mechanism of tenant resources was constructed to realize the distributed management of tenant resources.Secondly,for the security isolation and access between tenant data mapped to the same storage node,based on the predicate encryption mechanism,through the effective binding of security labels and tenant data,a tenant data isolation storage algorithm based on label predicate encryption was designed.Finally,by the design of multi-dimensional tenant data isolation control rules and using the analysis and authentication of security labels,independent,logical and secure virtual domains between tenants were built hierarchically.The security analysis shows that the method constructs tenant virtual domains which are secure and non-interference with each other.The simulation results show that the mapping algorithm can achieve a better dynamic load balance.The efficiency and security of data access are verified by the comparative analysis of tenant data retrieval efficiency and authentication access security.…”

“…Aiming at the problem that clustering routing algorithm in a three-dimensional (3D) scene has high energy consumption and short network lifetime, a clustering routing algorithm IFCRA for 3D wireless sensor networks based on improved honey badger algorithm optimized fuzzy C-means was proposed.The network clustering, cluster head election, and data transmission stages were optimized respectively.Firstly, the improved honey badger algorithm was used to optimize the fuzzy C-means algorithm, solving the problem of fuzzy C-means easily falling into local optima, and the topological structure was divided based on the distance and energy characteristics of nodes.Secondly, the optimal cluster head function was constructed by combining the energy and relative distance of nodes within the cluster to balance the cluster head load.Finally, an adaptive transmission mechanism was used to search for relay nodes, and the optimal transmission path function was constructed by combining node distance and energy.The improved honey badger algorithm was used to optimize the data transmission energy consumption.Simulation results show that IFCRA has reasonable clustering, balanced energy consumption, and long lifespan in a 3D heterogeneous scene.…”
