Web-Armour: Mitigiting Reconnaissance and Vulnerability Scanning in Web Deployments:
In this work, we propose Web-Armour, a mitigation approach to adversarial reconnaissance and vulnerability scanning of web deployments. The proposed approach relies on injecting scanning impeding delays to infrequently or rarely used portions of a web deployment. We demonstrated in this work that a solution like Web-Armour can effectively lead to thwarting reconnaissance and internet-wide scanning. This work resulted in a paper that was accepted for publication at the Annual Computer Security Application Conference (ACSAC). The paper can be accessed HERE.

Prosumer Nanogrids: A cybersecurity Assessment:
Nanogrids are customer deployments that can generate and inject electricity into the power grid. This work involved performing a cyber-security assessment of nanogrids that are connected to the internet. For this purpose we deployed a real-world like residential PV system and performed a cybersecurity assessment to investigate how these deployments can be compromised by an attacker. Our findings revealed major security concersn that allow an attacker to compromise the nanogrid deployment. Our work was selected for publication in IEEE Access and is available HERE.
