Network Steganography and Network Steganalysis
【摘 要】
Internet has become part of our everyday life. The endless usage of computer networks makes network security the highest priority in communications. Network steganography is to transmit secret data within user’s normal data transmission without being detected by third parties, which is also called covert channels. Covert channels via network protocols and packets have become a new challenge issue for network security. The huge amount of data transmitted over Internet by using TCP/IP protocols makes it ideal as a carrier in steganography. Vulnerability in many protocols and non-determinism in wireless environment also make covert channels possible. Attacks based on covert channels become a potential threat to the Internet. This brings up an important topic of steganalysis or a process of investigation to determine the presence of a steganographic payload. In this talk, I will first briefly review covert channels in network protocols, then present our proposed PRM (Phase-Space Reconstruction Method) to detect covert channels in TCP ISNs, which outperforms the state-of-the-art SVM (Support Vector Machine) method.
