Cybersecurity projects examples using omnet++

Cybersecurity project examples that utilize OMNeT++ as a simulation tool are discussed below. Our team of developers is equipped to improve the performance of your Cybersecurity projects across multiple scenarios through expert simulation guidance. In the given below are the cybersecurity project examples that we can implement using OMNeT++:

  1. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Simulation
  • Objective: To emulate IDS that observes network traffic for mistrustful activities and potential attacks and the system can identify the common network threats such as DDoS attacks, port scanning, or unauthorized access attempts.
  • Implementation: Use OMNeT++ to generate a network topology in which the nodes send traffic to each other and execute an IDS module that examines traffic patterns and increases alerts when it identifies the anomalies.
  • Extension: Improve the IDS by integrating the machine learning algorithms to enhance the detection accuracy.
  1. Simulation of DDoS Attack and Mitigation
  • Objective: To mimic a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on a network and execute the prevention strategies like rate limiting, filtering, or traffic rerouting.
  • Implementation: Generate multiple nodes to act as attackers that flood a target server with traffic. Execute a firewall or a DDoS protection system to observes traffic and block malicious packets.
  • Extension: Investigate with numerous kinds of DDoS attacks like volumetric, protocol attacks and compare the efficiency of numerous prevent techniques.
  1. Secure Routing Protocol Simulation
  • Objective: To emulate a secure routing protocol that stops common routing attacks like blackhole, wormhole, or Sybil attacks in a wireless network.
  • Implementation: Develop a network with wireless nodes and execute a routing protocol with security characteristics such as encryption, authentication, and route validation.
  • Extension: Evaluate the performance effect of the security features on the network and compare them with standard routing protocols.
  1. Network Traffic Encryption and Decryption
  • Objective: To mimic encryption and decryption of network traffic to secure the data privacy and integrity. Execute various encryption techniques and assess their effect on network performance.
  • Implementation: Generate a network in which the sensitive data is transferred among nodes. Execute encryption techniques such as AES or RSA at the sender and decryption at the receiver.
  • Extension: To emulate man-in-the-middle attacks and prove how encryption stops data tampering.
  1. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Security
  • Objective: Mimic security mechanisms in a Wireless Sensor Network to secure against attacks like node capture, eavesdropping, or replay attacks.
  • Implementation: Develop a WSN in OMNeT++ with multiple sensor nodes. Execute security measures like key management, secure data aggregation, and intrusion detection.
  • Extension: Assess the trade-offs among the security level and network performance like energy consumption, latency.
  1. Simulation of Blockchain-Based Secure Communication
  • Objective: To emulate a blockchain-based network to make sure the secure communication among the nodes. Use blockchain principles to mitigate the unauthorized access and data tampering.
  • Implementation: Generate a peer-to-peer network in which nodes exchange data using blockchain transactions. Execute consensus algorithms such as Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS) to authorize transactions.
  • Extension: Measure the overhead established by blockchain on network latency and throughput.
  1. Simulation of Secure IoT Networks
  • Objective: To mimic an Internet of Things (IoT) network with security mechanisms to secure against attacks such as unauthorized access, data breaches, or device manipulation.
  • Implementation: Develop an IoT network with different devices and execute security protocols like TLS/SSL, MQTT with encryption, or device authentication.
  • Extension: Emulate attacks on the IoT network and validate the efficiency of the executed security measures.
  1. Simulation of Secure Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs)
  • Objective: To ape a secure Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) to secure against attacks such as impersonation, eavesdropping, or routing attacks.
  • Implementation: Execute a MANET in OMNeT++ and integrate security features like secure key exchange, encrypted communication, and intrusion detection.
  • Extension: Investigate with various mobility models and measure the effect of mobility on security and network performance.
  1. Cyber-Physical System (CPS) Security
  • Objective: Emulate the security of a Cyber-Physical System (CPS), like a smart grid or industrial control system, against cyber threats.
  • Implementation: Generate a CPS network with components such as sensors, controllers, and actuators. Execute security mechanisms such as anomaly detection, secure communication, and access control.
  • Extension: To emulate attacks on the CPS and measure the system’s flexibility and recovery mechanisms.
  1. Simulation of Secure Software-Defined Networking (SDN)
  • Objective: To mimic a Software-Defined Networking (SDN) environment with security features to secure against attacks such as control plane attacks or data plane manipulation.
  • Implementation: Develop an SDN network in OMNeT++ with a centralized controller. Execute security measures like controller authentication, secure channel communication, and flow rule validation.
  • Extension: To ape attacks on the SDN controller and measure the efficiency of the security measures in mitigating the network compromise.
