文摘The rapid growth of Internet of things devices and the emergence of rapidly evolving network threats have made traditional security assessment methods inadequate.Federated learning offers a promising solution to expedite the training of security assessment models.However,ensuring the trustworthiness and robustness of federated learning under multi-party collaboration scenarios remains a challenge.To address these issues,this study proposes a shard aggregation network structure and a malicious node detection mechanism,along with improvements to the federated learning training process.First,we extract the data features of the participants by using spectral clustering methods combined with a Gaussian kernel function.Then,we introduce a multi-objective decision-making approach that combines data distribution consistency,consensus communication overhead,and consensus result reliability in order to determine the final network sharing scheme.Finally,by integrating the federated learning aggregation process with the malicious node detection mechanism,we improve the traditional decentralized learning process.Our proposed ShardFed algorithm outperforms conventional classification algorithms and state-of-the-art machine learning methods like FedProx and FedCurv in convergence speed,robustness against data interference,and adaptability across multiple scenarios.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach improves model accuracy by up to 2.33%under non-independent and identically distributed data conditions,maintains higher performance with malicious nodes containing poisoned data ratios of 20%–50%,and significantly enhances model resistance to low-quality data.

文摘As quantum computing continues to advance,traditional cryptographic methods are increasingly challenged,particularly when it comes to securing critical systems like Supervisory Control andData Acquisition(SCADA)systems.These systems are essential for monitoring and controlling industrial operations,making their security paramount.A key threat arises from Shor’s algorithm,a powerful quantum computing tool that can compromise current hash functions,leading to significant concerns about data integrity and confidentiality.To tackle these issues,this article introduces a novel Quantum-Resistant Hash Algorithm(QRHA)known as the Modular Hash Learning Algorithm(MHLA).This algorithm is meticulously crafted to withstand potential quantum attacks by incorporating advanced mathematical and algorithmic techniques,enhancing its overall security framework.Our research delves into the effectiveness ofMHLA in defending against both traditional and quantum-based threats,with a particular emphasis on its resilience to Shor’s algorithm.The findings from our study demonstrate that MHLA significantly enhances the security of SCADA systems in the context of quantum technology.By ensuring that sensitive data remains protected and confidential,MHLA not only fortifies individual systems but also contributes to the broader efforts of safeguarding industrial and infrastructure control systems against future quantumthreats.Our evaluation demonstrates that MHLA improves security by 38%against quantumattack simulations compared to traditional hash functionswhilemaintaining a computational efficiency ofO(m⋅n⋅k+v+n).The algorithm achieved a 98%success rate in detecting data tampering during integrity testing.These findings underline MHLA’s effectiveness in enhancing SCADA system security amidst evolving quantum technologies.This research represents a crucial step toward developing more secure cryptographic systems that can adapt to the rapidly changing technological landscape,ultimately ensuring the reliability and integrity of critical infrastructure in an era where quantum computing poses a growing risk.

文摘A robust ecological security network(ESN)is essential for ensuring regional ecological security,improving fragile ecological conditions,and promoting sustainable development.Climate change and land use/cover change(LUCC)influence the structure and connectivity of the ESN by impacting ecosystem services(ESs).Previous studies primarily focused on the overall effects of LUCC on ESN changes,but they largely overlooked the effects of detailed LUCC transitions.In this study,we evaluated changes in the structure and connectivity of the ESN in the Songnen Plain(SNP),Northeast China,over the past 30 yr(1990s-2020s)using circuit theory and graph theory.We further explored the effects of climate change,LUCC,and detailed LUCC transformations on ESN changes through factorial control experiments.Results revealed a 24.86%decrease in ecological sources and a 27.06%decrease in ecological corridors,accompanied by a decline in ESN connectivity from the 1990s to the 2010s.Conversely,from the 2010s to the 2020s,ecological sources increased by 14.71%and ecological corridors increased by 25.71%due to ecological projects such as returning farmland to wetlands,resulting in an overall increase in ESN connectivity.The changes in ESN structure were primarily attributed to LUCC effects,followed by climate change effects and their interactions.In contrast,the changes in connectivity were significantly affected by climate change,followed by interactive effects and LUCC.Through detailed examination of LUCC transformation effects,we further found that the changes in ESN structure were primarily attributed to wetland loss,followed by deforestation and urban expansion.Meanwhile,the changes in ESN connectivity were mainly due to the effects of wetland loss,urban expansion and deforestation.Notably,the adverse effects of wetland loss partly offset climate change benefits on ESN.Our study offers valuable insights for developing future land management policies and implementing ecological projects,aimed at maintaining a stable ESN and ensuring sustainable human development.

文摘This paper proposes a model-based control framework for vehicle platooning systems with secondorder nonlinear dynamics operating over switching signed networks,time-varying delays,and deception attacks.The study includes two configurations:a leaderless structure using Finite-Time Non-Singular Terminal Bipartite Consensus(FNTBC)and Fixed-Time Bipartite Consensus(FXTBC),and a leader—follower structure ensuring structural balance and robustness against deceptive signals.In the leaderless model,a bipartite controller based on impulsive control theory,gauge transformation,and Markovian switching Lyapunov functions ensures mean-square stability and coordination under deception attacks and communication delays.The FNTBC achieves finite-time convergence depending on initial conditions,while the FXTBC guarantees fixed-time convergence independent of them,providing adaptability to different operating states.In the leader—follower case,a discontinuous impulsive control law synchronizes all followers with the leader despite deceptive attacks and switching topologies,maintaining robust coordination through nonlinear corrective mechanisms.To validate the approach,simulations are conducted on systems of five and seventeen vehicles in both leaderless and leader—follower configurations.The results demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves rapid consensus,strong robustness,and high resistance to deception attacks,offering a secure and scalable model-based control solution for modern vehicular communication networks.

文摘Distributed Denial-of-Service(DDoS)attacks pose severe threats to Industrial Control Networks(ICNs),where service disruption can cause significant economic losses and operational risks.Existing signature-based methods are ineffective against novel attacks,and traditional machine learning models struggle to capture the complex temporal dependencies and dynamic traffic patterns inherent in ICN environments.To address these challenges,this study proposes a deep feature-driven hybrid framework that integrates Transformer,BiLSTM,and KNN to achieve accurate and robust DDoS detection.The Transformer component extracts global temporal dependencies from network traffic flows,while BiLSTM captures fine-grained sequential dynamics.The learned embeddings are then classified using an instance-based KNN layer,enhancing decision boundary precision.This cascaded architecture balances feature abstraction and locality preservation,improving both generalization and robustness.The proposed approach was evaluated on a newly collected real-time ICN traffic dataset and further validated using the public CIC-IDS2017 and Edge-IIoT datasets to demonstrate generalization.Comprehensive metrics including accuracy,precision,recall,F1-score,ROC-AUC,PR-AUC,false positive rate(FPR),and detection latency were employed.Results show that the hybrid framework achieves 98.42%accuracy with an ROC-AUC of 0.992 and FPR below 1%,outperforming baseline machine learning and deep learning models.Robustness experiments under Gaussian noise perturbations confirmed stable performance with less than 2%accuracy degradation.Moreover,detection latency remained below 2.1 ms per sample,indicating suitability for real-time ICS deployment.In summary,the proposed hybrid temporal learning and instance-based classification model offers a scalable and effective solution for DDoS detection in industrial control environments.By combining global contextual modeling,sequential learning,and instance-based refinement,the framework demonstrates strong adaptability across datasets and resilience against noise,providing practical utility for safeguarding critical infrastructure.
文摘The advent of quantum computing poses a significant challenge to traditional cryptographic protocols,particularly those used in SecureMultiparty Computation(MPC),a fundamental cryptographic primitive for privacypreserving computation.Classical MPC relies on cryptographic techniques such as homomorphic encryption,secret sharing,and oblivious transfer,which may become vulnerable in the post-quantum era due to the computational power of quantum adversaries.This study presents a review of 140 peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2025 that used different databases like MDPI,IEEE Explore,Springer,and Elsevier,examining the applications,types,and security issues with the solution of Quantum computing in different fields.This review explores the impact of quantum computing on MPC security,assesses emerging quantum-resistant MPC protocols,and examines hybrid classicalquantum approaches aimed at mitigating quantum threats.We analyze the role of Quantum Key Distribution(QKD),post-quantum cryptography(PQC),and quantum homomorphic encryption in securing multiparty computations.Additionally,we discuss the challenges of scalability,computational efficiency,and practical deployment of quantumsecure MPC frameworks in real-world applications such as privacy-preserving AI,secure blockchain transactions,and confidential data analysis.This review provides insights into the future research directions and open challenges in ensuring secure,scalable,and quantum-resistant multiparty computation.
文摘Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks are one of the severe threats to network infrastructure,sometimes bypassing traditional diagnosis algorithms because of their evolving complexity.PresentMachine Learning(ML)techniques for DDoS attack diagnosis normally apply network traffic statistical features such as packet sizes and inter-arrival times.However,such techniques sometimes fail to capture complicated relations among various traffic flows.In this paper,we present a new multi-scale ensemble strategy given the Graph Neural Networks(GNNs)for improving DDoS detection.Our technique divides traffic into macro-and micro-level elements,letting various GNN models to get the two corase-scale anomalies and subtle,stealthy attack models.Through modeling network traffic as graph-structured data,GNNs efficiently learn intricate relations among network entities.The proposed ensemble learning algorithm combines the results of several GNNs to improve generalization,robustness,and scalability.Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets—UNSW-NB15,CICIDS2017,and CICDDoS2019—show that our approach outperforms traditional machine learning and deep learning models in detecting both high-rate and low-rate(stealthy)DDoS attacks,with significant improvements in accuracy and recall.These findings demonstrate the suggested method’s applicability and robustness for real-world implementation in contexts where several DDoS patterns coexist.

文摘The increased connectivity and reliance on digital technologies have exposed smart transportation systems to various cyber threats,making intrusion detection a critical aspect of ensuring their secure operation.Traditional intrusion detection systems have limitations in terms of centralized architecture,lack of transparency,and vulnerability to single points of failure.This is where the integration of blockchain technology with signature-based intrusion detection can provide a robust and decentralized solution for securing smart transportation systems.This study tackles the issue of database manipulation attacks in smart transportation networks by proposing a signaturebased intrusion detection system.The introduced signature facilitates accurate detection and systematic classification of attacks,enabling categorization according to their severity levels within the transportation infrastructure.Through comparative analysis,the research demonstrates that the blockchain-based IDS outperforms traditional approaches in terms of security,resilience,and data integrity.

文摘With the growing complexity and decentralization of network systems,the attack surface has expanded,which has led to greater concerns over network threats.In this context,artificial intelligence(AI)-based network intrusion detection systems(NIDS)have been extensively studied,and recent efforts have shifted toward integrating distributed learning to enable intelligent and scalable detection mechanisms.However,most existing works focus on individual distributed learning frameworks,and there is a lack of systematic evaluations that compare different algorithms under consistent conditions.In this paper,we present a comprehensive evaluation of representative distributed learning frameworks—Federated Learning(FL),Split Learning(SL),hybrid collaborative learning(SFL),and fully distributed learning—in the context of AI-driven NIDS.Using recent benchmark intrusion detection datasets,a unified model backbone,and controlled distributed scenarios,we assess these frameworks across multiple criteria,including detection performance,communication cost,computational efficiency,and convergence behavior.Our findings highlight distinct trade-offs among the distributed learning frameworks,demonstrating that the optimal choice depends strongly on systemconstraints such as bandwidth availability,node resources,and data distribution.This work provides the first holistic analysis of distributed learning approaches for AI-driven NIDS and offers practical guidelines for designing secure and efficient intrusion detection systems in decentralized environments.
