Markov game modeling of mimic defense and defense strategy determination by Xingming ZHANG, Zeyu GU, Shuai WEI, Jianliang SHEN

“…Network mimic defense technology enhances the robustness of active defense through the redundancy,dynamic and diversity as well as the decision feedback mechanism.However,little work has been done for its security assessment and existing classic game models are not suitable for its dynamic characteristics and lack of universality.A Markov game model was proposed to analyze the transfer relationship between offensive and defensive status and the measurement method of safety and reliability of mimic defense,and calculated the offensive and defensive game equilibrium through non-linear programming algorithm to determine the best defensive strategy considering performance.Experiments give a comparison with the multi-target hiding technique and shows that the mimic defense has a higher defensive effect.Combining with the specific network case,the specific attack and defense path for the exploit of the system vulnerability is given and the effectiveness of the defense strategy algorithm is verified.…”

Resistance of <i>Wolbachia</i> to Trimethoprim: Insights into Genes Encoding Dihydrofolate Reductase, Thymidylate Synthase and Serine Hydroxymethyltransferase in the Rickettsiales by Ann M. Fallon

“…The exclusive use of FAD-TS suggests that <i>Wolbachia</i> DHFR provides a supplementary rather than an essential function for de novo synthesis of dTMP, possibly reflecting the relative availability of, and competing demands for, FAD and NAD coenzymes in the diverse intracellular environments of its hosts. Whether encoded by <i>thyA</i> or <i>thyX</i>, TS produces dTMP by transferring a methyl group from methylene tetrahydrofolate to dUMP. …”

Anomaly detection and location of malicious node for IoT based on smart contract in blockchain network by Haojie HUANG, Xiaoxiao WU, Gangqiang LI

“…With the explosive growth of the number of distributed devices in the Internet of things (IoT) network,the security of decentralized multi-agent optimization algorithm has become the forefront problem.The distributed algorithms in the IoT network are vulnerable to data injection attacks from internal malicious node because each agent locally estimates its state without any supervision.In general,the detection methods for malicious node run independently in each agent,inducing issues such as closed data,single points of failure,opaque detection processes,and so on.The proposed strategy considered detecting via an aid of blockchain technology and smart contracts in Ethereum to detect malicious node in the network.Based on the decentralized and multiple backup features of blockchain technology,the multi-site backup features of the blockchain technology enabled data sharing and avoided single point failure.In addition,the contract code,execution process and result of the smart contract were open and transparent,and the contract code and result could not be tampered to ensure that the detection process could be traced and verified.Finally,the average consensus algorithm was adopted as an example,and the proposed strategy was verified on a simplified IoT network implemented by Raspberry Pi.…”
