Security Solution For Man-in-the-Browser Attacks

A security solution developed by Cronto that protects against Man-in-the-Browser attacks, one of the most serious threats to online banking customers, and which is responsible for millions in annual losses to the banking sector, is being rolled out across Europe…

Radio Propagation Modelling

Why is it needed? •To predict coverage between nodes in a wireless network •Path loss is different from environment to environment, e.g., in-building is different to outdoors. •Knowledge of path loss enables system parameters to be defined, e.g.,transmit power, receiver…

WSN Communication

WSN Communication :Localization, MAC Protocols and Backend Applications Research Topics Investigated • Sensor localization Devised distributed, efficient algorithms to determine sensor locations without help of GPS (e.g., London underground tunnels) by use of multiple antennas Evaluated performance of proposed localization…

Energy Management in Wireless Sensor Networks

Energy management has been a consistent problem in wireless sensor network (WSN). According to MG Murshed a researcher at the University of Aberdeen, UK “One of the most significant challenges for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is long-lived sensor nodes and…

WSN Development with XBee

XBee is the brand name from Digi International for a family of form factor compatible radio modules. This technology can be used to provide advanced temperature control, smart lighting and assist in the controllability or automation of so many other…
