Sistema de gestão e controlo da atribuição de endereçamento de rede

Com a evolução tecnológica, a informática assumiu um papel fulcral na nossa vida actual tanto numa vertente doméstica como para as mais variadíssimas organizações. As redes IP estão disseminadas por todo o lado, escritórios, habitações, estabelecimentos de ensino, espaços comerciais, com as mais diversas topologias e dimensões, que como qualquer recurso devem ser bem geridas. O presente projecto insere-se neste contexto, pretendendo criar um sistema para dar apoio no controlo e gestão de endereçamento IP dados por um servidor DHCP. A problemática central que este projecto pretende tratar é a detecção da configuração forçada de endereços IP por parte dos utilizadores, notificando tais situações aos administradores de rede. O sistema é constituído por vários componentes como Linux, MySQL, ISC DHCP, SNMP, PHP, APACHE e irá interagir com equipamentos de rede que possuam tabelas de endereços para que a informação, nestas encontradas, seja comparada com a informação dos endereços fornecidos pelo servidor DHCP. O sistema dá suporte a uma página web que pretende auxiliar algumas configurações e fornecer informações estatísticas sobre a rede.

Internet Geography: New Spaces of Information

The objective of great investments in telecommunication networks is to approach economies and put an end to the asymmetries. The most isolated regions could be the beneficiaries of this new technological investments wave disseminating trough the territories. The new economic scenarios created by globalisation make high capacity backbones and coherent information society polity, two instruments that could change regions fate and launch them in to an economic development context. Technology could bring international projection to services or products and could be the differentiating element between a national and an international economic strategy. So, the networks and its fluxes are becoming two of the most important variables to the economies. Measuring and representing this new informational accessibility, mapping new communities, finding new patterns and localisation models, could be today’s challenge. In the physical and real space, location is defined by two or three geographical co-ordinates. In the network virtual space or in cyberspace, geography seems incapable to define location, because it doesn’t have a good model. Trying to solve the problem and based on geographical theories and concepts, new fields of study came to light. The Internet Geography, Cybergeography or Geography of Cyberspace are only three examples. In this paper and using Internet Geography and informational cartography, it was possible to observe and analyse the spacialisation of the Internet phenomenon trough the distribution of the IP addresses in the Portuguese territory. This work shows the great potential and applicability of this indicator to Internet dissemination and regional development studies. The Portuguese territory is seen in a completely new form: the IP address distribution of Country Code Top Level Domains (.pt) could show new regional hierarchies. The spatial concentration or dispersion of top level domains seems to be a good instrument to reflect the info-structural dynamic and economic development of a territory, especially at regional level.

Internet Geography: Spaces of Innovation

Information Society plays an important role in all kinds of human activity, inducing new forms of economic and social organization and creating knowledge. Over the last twenty years of the 20th century, large investments in telecommunication networks were made to approach economies and put an end to the asymmetries. The most isolated regions were the beneficiaries of this new technological investment’s wave disseminating trough the territories. The new economic scenarios created by globalisation make high capacity backbones and coherent information society polity, two instruments that could change regions fate and launch them in to an economic development context. Technology could bring international projection to services, products and could be the differentiating element between a national and an international economic strategy. So, the networks and its fluxes are becoming two of the most important variables to the economies. Measuring and representing this new informational accessibility, mapping new communities, finding new patterns and localisation models, could be today’s challenge. In the physical/real space, location is defined by two or three geographical co-ordinates. In the network/virtual space or in cyberspace, geography seems incapable to define location, because it doesn’t have a good model. Trying to solve the problem and based on geographical theories and concepts, new fields of study came to light. Internet Geography is one example. In this paper and using Internet Geography and informational cartography, it was possible to observe and analyse the spacialisation of the Internet phenomenon trough the distribution of the IP addresses in the Portuguese territory. This work shows the great potential and applicability of this indicator to regional development studies, and at the same time. The IP address distribution of Country Code Top Level Domains (.pt for Portugal) could show the same economic patterns, reflecting territorial inflexibility or, by opposition, new regional hierarchies. The spatial concentration or dispersion of top level domains seems to be a good instrument to analyse the info-structural dynamic and economic development of a territory, especially at regional level. At the same time it shows that information technologies are essential to innovation and competitive advantage.

Estudo e análise das redes centradas em conteúdos

A Internet, conforme a conhecemos, foi projetada com base na pilha de protocolos TCP/IP, que foi desenvolvida nos anos 60 e 70 utilizando um paradigma centrado nos endereços individuais de cada máquina (denominado host-centric). Este paradigma foi extremamente bem-sucedido em interligar máquinas através de encaminhamento baseado no endereço IP. Estudos recentes demonstram que, parte significativa do tráfego atual da Internet centra-se na transferência de conteúdos, em vez das tradicionais aplicações de rede, conforme foi originalmente concebido. Surgiram então novos modelos de comunicação, entre eles, protocolos de rede ponto-a-ponto, onde cada máquina da rede pode efetuar distribuição de conteúdo (denominadas de redes peer-to-peer), para melhorar a distribuição e a troca de conteúdos na Internet. Por conseguinte, nos últimos anos o paradigma host-centric começou a ser posto em causa e apareceu uma nova abordagem de Redes Centradas na Informação (ICN - information-centric networking). Tendo em conta que a Internet, hoje em dia, basicamente é uma rede de transferência de conteúdos e informações, porque não centrar a sua evolução neste sentido, ao invés de comunicações host-to-host? O paradigma de Rede Centrada no Conteúdo (CCN - Content Centric Networking) simplifica a solução de determinados problemas de segurança relacionados com a arquitetura TCP/IP e é uma das principais propostas da nova abordagem de Redes Centradas na Informação. Um dos principais problemas do modelo TCP/IP é a proteção do conteúdo. Atualmente, para garantirmos a autenticidade e a integridade dos dados partilhados na rede, é necessário garantir a segurança do repositório e do caminho que os dados devem percorrer até ao seu destino final. No entanto, a contínua ineficácia perante os ataques de negação de serviço praticados na Internet, sugere a necessidade de que seja a própria infraestrutura da rede a fornecer mecanismos para os mitigar. Um dos principais pilares do paradigma de comunicação da CCN é focalizar-se no próprio conteúdo e não na sua localização física. Desde o seu aparecimento em 2009 e como consequência da evolução e adaptação a sua designação mudou atualmente para Redes de Conteúdos com Nome (NNC – Named Network Content). Nesta dissertação, efetuaremos um estudo de uma visão geral da arquitetura CCN, apresentando as suas principais características, quais os componentes que a compõem e como os seus mecanismos mitigam os tradicionais problemas de comunicação e de segurança. Serão efetuadas experiências com o CCNx, que é um protótipo composto por um conjunto de funcionalidades e ferramentas, que possibilitam a implementação deste paradigma. O objetivo é analisar criticamente algumas das propostas existentes, determinar oportunidades, desafios e perspectivas para investigação futura.

Käyttäjä- ja laiterekisteröinti kampusverkossa

Nykyaikaisen verkon ominaisuuksia ovat osoitteiden dynaaminen jako verkkolaitteille, verkon käyttäjien ja laitteiden tunnistaminen ennen yhteyden avaamista sekä käytön estäminen tuntemattomilta käyttäjiltä. Diplomityössä toteutetaan LNET-verkkoon käyttäjä- ja laiterekisteröinti, jonka avulla käyttäjät voivat rekisteröidä itselleen verkkolaitteita ja näin avata itselleen Internet-yhteyden.

Protecting Your Search Privacy: A Lesson Plan

Each year search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo, complete trillions of search queries online. Students are especially dependent on these search tools because of their popularity, convenience and accessibility. However, what students are unaware of, by choice or naiveté is the amount of personal information that is collected during each search session, how that data is used and who is interested in their online behavior profile. Privacy policies are frequently updated in favor of the search companies but are lengthy and often are perused briefly or ignored entirely with little thought about how personal web habits are being exploited for analytics and marketing. As an Information Literacy instructor, and a member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, I believe in the importance of educating college students and web users in general that they have a right to privacy online. Class discussions on the topic of web privacy have yielded an interesting perspective on internet search usage. Students are unaware of how their online behavior is recorded and have consistently expressed their hesitancy to use tools that disguise or delete their IP address because of the stigma that it may imply they have something to hide or are engaging in illegal activity. Additionally, students fear they will have to surrender the convenience of uber connectivity in their applications to maintain their privacy. The purpose of this lightning presentation is to provide educators with a lesson plan highlighting and simplifying the privacy terms for the three major search engines, Google, Bing and Yahoo. This presentation focuses on what data these search engines collect about users, how that data is used and alternative search solutions, like DuckDuckGo, for increased privacy. Students will directly benefit from this lesson because informed internet users can protect their data, feel safer online and become more effective web searchers.

Personal Data and Encryption in the European General Data Protection Regulation

Encryption of personal data is widely regarded as a privacy preserving technology which could potentially play a key role for the compliance of innovative IT technology within the European data protection law framework. Therefore, in this paper, we examine the new EU General Data Protection Regulation’s relevant provisions regarding encryption – such as those for anonymisation and pseudonymisation – and assess whether encryption can serve as an anonymisation technique, which can lead to the non-applicability of the GDPR. However, the provisions of the GDPR regarding the material scope of the Regulation still leave space for legal uncertainty when determining whether a data subject is identifiable or not. Therefore, we inter alia assess the Opinion of the Advocate General of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) regarding a preliminary ruling on the interpretation of the dispute concerning whether a dynamic IP address can be considered as personal data, which may put an end to the dispute whether an absolute or a relative approach has to be used for the assessment of the identifiability of data subjects. Furthermore, we outline the issue of whether the anonymisation process itself constitutes a further processing of personal data which needs to have a legal basis in the GDPR. Finally, we give an overview of relevant encryption techniques and examine their impact upon the GDPR’s material scope.
