System for detecting malicious nodes in a wireless sensor network and a method thereof

The present disclosure generally relates to a two-stage system for detecting malicious nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), enhancing network security and resilience. The system employs a distributed approach, leveraging Cluster Heads (CHs) and a central server for efficient and accurate detection. Initially, sensor nodes are monitored for comprehensive node and network metrics, statistically ranked by significance in identifying malicious behavior. CHs perform a resource-aware first-stage detection based on their resource weight, filtering potential threats locally. Results are then aggregated at a server for a second-stage analysis using a hybrid Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) approach. This advanced analysis, combined with statistically relevant metrics, significantly improves detection accuracy. By integrating resource-conscious CH operation with powerful server-side ML / DL, this system offers a scalable, energy-efficient, and highly effective solution for securing WSNs against malicious node attacks, surpassing traditional detection methods in both speed and precision.

Cybersecurity algorithms and tools for supervisory control and data acquisition and industrial control systems

A hybrid approach involving the mix of communication patterns and passive fingerprinting is used to identify unknown device types, manufacturers, and models of devices of digital control systems. ANDVI implementation maps the identified devices to their known vulnerabilities. According to one example, to identify how interdependence among existing atomic vulnerabilities may be exploited by an adversary to stitch together an attack that can compromise the system, model-checking based A2G2V is employed. According to another example, an A2G2V algorithm uses existing model-checking tools, an architecture description tool, and code to generate an attack-graph that enumerates the set of all possible sequences in which atomic-level vulnerabilities can be exploited to compromise system security. In yet another example, identification of label-cuts within an attack-graph automatically identifies a set of critical-attacks that, when blocked, renders the system secure. A linear complexity approximation utilizing SCCs helps identify the minimum label-cut representing a critical-attacks set.

Classical-quantum hybrid approach to multi-hop routing in cargo logistics

An optimal route can be determined for delivering an item through a logistics system where vehicles have multiple stops when traveling along routes. The optimal route is determined using a hybrid system employing a classical computing device and a quantum annealer. The classical device reduces the search space that allows the quantum annealer to determine a more optimal solution. In an aspect, a routing graph comprising nodes and edges is populated from routes of vehicles, where the nodes identify locations and the edges represent routing data. At least a portion of the nodes and edges is removed to form a refined routing graph. For an origin-destination input, the refined routing graph can be filtered according to a first set of routing constraints to form a reduced route search space.

Method and system for identifying labels of unlabelled column data

As discussed earlier, labelling techniques that are available for labelling of unlabelled tabular data use some semi supervised models for identification purposes. However, they require sample labeled data for training purposes. Further, the same labelling model / technique cannot be used for all data types. Present disclosure provides method and system for identifying labels of unlabeled column data. The system uses a hybrid approach i.e., it uses language models, regular expressions and known dictionaries for labelling of unlabelled tabular data. For performing labelling, system first classifies received unlabelled tabular data into one or more data buckets. The system then uses appropriate techniques, based on data types, for identification of labels of unlabeled data present in data buckets. Thereafter, system uses feedback mechanism which will impart maturity to system over time. Finally, once system is matured, system can identify labels for all types of data.

Method and system for interpreting and filtering network security alerts

An observed network communication event is represented as an edge in a knowledge graph (G) and processed by an anomaly detection component (AD), generating an alert for that event if its likelihood is below a threshold. An interpretation generation component (EG) generates an interpretation for some alerts. A filter component (FFP) removes an alert that no interpretation thereof is generated. A linguistizer (V) linguistizes an interpretation for the generation of the at least one remaining alert. Preferred embodiments employ a hybrid approach by combining symbolic and sub-symbolic algorithms on a knowledge graph in order to improve the interpretability and quality of IDS generated alarms in modern industrial systems, increasing their usefulness to analysts. An interpretable AI (XAI), i.e. The interpretability of the AI algorithm, enables analysts to understand how the system draws their conclusions and may allow them to interact therewith in a cooperative manner. In addition, most false positives can be filtered out through interpretation availability, and therefore the problem of alarm flooding is solved. Combining these two aspects, the reduction of checked cases along with expressive interpretation of remaining alarms, greatly reduces the total time and workload of analysts to assess the output of the intrusion detection system.
