itrust consulting s.à r.l. has updated its Privacy Statement.
On 26 June Steve Muller of itrust consulting defended his PhD thesis in Computer Science on Risk Monitoring and Intrusion Detection for Industrial Control System (ICS) at the University of Luxembourg.
itrust consulting s.à r.l. is proud to announce that it has recently signed a contract with SES to participate as one of the many project partners in the recently publicized QUARTZ consortium (https://www.ses.com/press-release/esa-and-ses-led-consortium-develop-satellite-based-cybersecurity), primarily funded by the European Space Agency (ESA) via its ARTES/ScyLight programme.

Modern network intrusion detection systems rely on machine learning techniques to detect traffic anomalies and thus intruders. However, the ability to learn the network behaviour in real-time comes at a cost: malicious software can interfere with the learning process, and teach the intrusion detection system to accept dangerous traffic.
The recently published article presents an intrusion detection system (IDS) that is able to detect common network attacks including but not limited to, denial-of-service, bot nets, intrusions, and network scans.
With the help of the proposed example IDS, it is shown to what extent the training attack, and more sophisticated variants of it, have an impact on machine-learning based detection schemes. The analysis is then used to design an intrusion detection system that is resilient to such kind of attacks.
Dr. Carlo Harpes, Managing Director and founder of itrust consulting, was invited by ‘radio 100,7’ to a round table discussing the questions: How secure are the databases and - more generally - the informal systems at the state? Or in the private sector? How about data protection, especially in view of the new data protection regulation (GDPR)?
