    A Firewall Design for Academic Environments
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2001) Tok, Metin; Koltuksuz, Ahmet Hasan
    Computer networks in academic environments could have many secUlity problems if there weren't enough precaution. The source of these problems is generally vulnerabilities of TCP/IP protocol and Internet. Vulnerabilities can cause threats. These threats will be analyzed in this thesis. There are many kind of countelmeasures to prevent the assets of the academic networks. Firewalls are a kind of countermeasure against these attacks. In this thesis, these countelmeasures will be also analyzed and a firewall will be designed and proposed for academic environments against these threats.

    An Analysis of Key Generation Efficiency of Rsa Cryptosystem in Distributed Environments
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2005) Çağrıcı, Gökhan; Koltuksuz, Ahmet; Koltuksuz, Ahmet Hasan
    As the size of the communication through networks and especially through Internet grew, there became a huge need for securing these connections. The symmetric and asymmetric cryptosystems formed a good complementary approach for providing this security. While the asymmetric cryptosystems were a perfect solution for the distribution of the keys used by the communicating parties, they were very slow for the actual encryption and decryption of the data flowing between them. Therefore, the symmetric cryptosystems perfectly filled this space and were used for the encryption and decryption process once the session keys had been exchanged securely. Parallelism is a hot research topic area in many different fields and being used to deal with problems whose solutions take a considerable amount of time. Cryptography is no exception and, computer scientists have discovered that parallelism could certainly be used for making the algorithms for asymmetric cryptosystems go faster and the experimental results have shown a good promise so far. This thesis is based on the parallelization of a famous public-key algorithm, namely RSA.

    Firewall monitoring using intrusion detection systems
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2005) Asarcıklı, Şükran; Tuğlular, Tuğkan
    Most organizations have intranet, they know the benefits of connecting their private LAN to the Internet. However, Internet is inherently an insecure network. That makes the security of the computer systems an imported problem. The first step of network security is firewalls. Firewalls are used to protect internal networks from external attacks through restricting network access according to the rules. The firewall must apply previously defined rules to each packet reaching to its network interface. If the application of rules are prohibited due to malfunction or hacking, internal network may be open to attacks and this situation should be recovered as fast as possible. In order to be sure about the firewall working properly, we proposed to use Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)to monitor firewall operation. The architecture of our experimental environment is composed of a firewall and two IDSs. One IDS is between external network and firewall, while the other is between firewall and private network. Those two IDSs are invisible to the both networks and they send their information to a monitoring server, which decides, based on two observations, whether the firewall is working properly or not.
