- Securing Physical and Virtual IT Assets Without Hardware Firewalls or VLANs - A New Approach: An Identity-Aware Network Inside the Perimeter
- For security administrators at large corporations, the growing management complexity of internal firewalls and Virtual LANs VLANs presents significant security challenges. The growing reliance on Virtual Machines VMs also introduces significant security vulnerabilities. Communication between VMs is fully undetected by traditional hardware firewalls. In addition, when VMs move, they usually...

- An Information-Theoretical View of Network-Aware Malware Attacks
- This paper investigates three aspects: a network vulnerability as the non-uniform vulnerable-host distribution, threats, i.e., intelligent malwares that exploit such a vulnerability, and defense, i.e., challenges for fighting the threats. They first study five large data sets and observe consistent clustered vulnerable-host distributions. They then present a new metric, referred...
