Blockchain has become one of the most attractive technologies for applications, with a large range of deployments such as production, economy, or banking. Under the hood, Blockchain technology is a type of distributed database that supports untrusted parties. In this paper we focus Hyperledger Fabric, the first blockchain in the market tailored for a private environment, allowing businesses to create a permissioned network. Hyperledger Fabric implements a PBFT consensus in order to maintain a non forking blockchain at the application level. We deployed this framework over an area network between France and Germany in order to evaluate its performance when potentially large network delays are observed. Overall we found that when network delay increases significantly (i.e. up to 3.5 seconds at network layer between two clouds), we observed that the blocks added to our blockchain had up to 134 seconds offset after 100 th block from one cloud to another. Thus by delaying block propagation, we demonstrated that Hyperledger Fabric does not provide sufficient consistency guaranties to be deployed in critical environments. Our work, is the fist to evidence the negative impact of network delays on a PBFT-based blockchain.

With its unique advantages such as decentralization and immutability, blockchain technology has been widely used in various fields in recent years. The smart contract running on the blockchain is also playing an increasingly important role in decentr
alized application scenarios. Therefore, the automatic detection of security vulnerabilities in smart contracts has become an urgent problem in the application of blockchain technology. Hyperledger Fabric is a smart contract platform based on enterprise-level licensed distributed ledger technology. However, the research on the vulnerability detection technology of Hyperledger Fabric smart contracts is still in its infancy. In this paper, we propose HFContractFuzzer, a method based on Fuzzing technology to detect Hyperledger Fabric smart contracts, which combines a Fuzzing tool for golang named go-fuzz and smart contracts written by golang. We use HFContractFuzzer to detect vulnerabilities in five contracts from typical sources and discover that four of them have security vulnerabilities, proving the effectiveness of the proposed method.
Automated and industrial Internet of Things (IoT) devices are increasing daily. As the number of IoT devices grows, the volume of data generated by them will also grow. Managing these rapidly expanding IoT devices and enormous data efficiently to be
available to all authorized users without compromising its integrity will become essential in the near future. On the other side, many information security incidents have been recorded, increasing the requirement for countermeasures. While safeguards against hostile third parties have been commonplace until now, operators and parties have seen an increase in demand for data falsification detection and blocking. Blockchain technology is well-known for its privacy, immutability, and decentralized nature. Single-board computers are becoming more powerful while also becoming more affordable as IoT platforms. These single-board computers are gaining traction in the automation industry. This study focuses on a paradigm of IoT-Blockchain integration where the blockchain node runs autonomously on the IoT platform itself. It enables the system to conduct machine-to-machine transactions without the intervention of a person and to exert direct access control over IoT devices. This paper assumed that the readers are familiar with Hyperledger Fabric basic operations and focus on the practical approach of integration. A basic introduction is provided for the newbie on the blockchain.
Honeypots are more and more used to collect data on malicious activities on the Internet and to better understand the strategies and techniques used by attackers to compromise target systems. Analysis and modeling methodologies are needed to support
the characterization of attack processes based on the data collected from the honeypots. This paper presents some empirical analyses based on the data collected from the Leurr{e}.com honeypot platforms deployed on the Internet and presents some preliminary modeling studies aimed at fulfilling such objectives.
Botnet detection is a critical step in stopping the spread of botnets and preventing malicious activities. However, reliable detection is still a challenging task, due to a wide variety of botnets involving ever-increasing types of devices and attack
vectors. Recent approaches employing machine learning (ML) showed improved performance than earlier ones, but these ML- based approaches still have significant limitations. For example, most ML approaches can not incorporate sequential pattern analysis techniques key to detect some classes of botnets. Another common shortcoming of ML-based approaches is the need to retrain neural networks in order to detect the evolving botnets; however, the training process is time-consuming and requires significant efforts to label the training data. For fast-evolving botnets, it might take too long to create sufficient training samples before the botnets have changed again. To address these challenges, we propose a novel botnet detection method, built upon Recurrent Variational Autoencoder (RVAE) that effectively captures sequential characteristics of botnet activities. In the experiment, this semi-supervised learning method achieves better detection accuracy than similar learning methods, especially on hard to detect classes. Additionally, we devise a transfer learning framework to learn from a well-curated source data set and transfer the knowledge to a target problem domain not seen before. Tests show that the true-positive rate (TPR) with transfer learning is higher than the RVAE semi-supervised learning method trained using the target data set (91.8% vs. 68.3%).
Generative adversarial network (GAN) has attracted increasing attention recently owing to its impressive ability to generate realistic samples with high privacy protection. Without directly interactive with training examples, the generative model can
be fully used to estimate the underlying distribution of an original dataset while the discriminative model can examine the quality of the generated samples by comparing the label values with the training examples. However, when GANs are applied on sensitive or private training examples, such as medical or financial records, it is still probable to divulge individuals sensitive and private information. To mitigate this information leakage and construct a private GAN, in this work we propose a Renyi-differentially private-GAN (RDP-GAN), which achieves differential privacy (DP) in a GAN by carefully adding random noises on the value of the loss function during training. Moreover, we derive the analytical results of the total privacy loss under the subsampling method and cumulated iterations, which show its effectiveness on the privacy budget allocation. In addition, in order to mitigate the negative impact brought by the injecting noise, we enhance the proposed algorithm by adding an adaptive noise tuning step, which will change the volume of added noise according to the testing accuracy. Through extensive experimental results, we verify that the proposed algorithm can achieve a better privacy level while producing high-quality samples compared with a benchmark DP-GAN scheme based on noise perturbation on training gradients.
