Abstract: An apparatus and lightweight method detects and prevents DDoS attacks in a 5G-IoT slice in real-time without putting the stress of security on the constrained IoT devices. The apparatus includes eight IoT devices, a gNB, and 5G core network. The core network includes of AMF, SMF, UPF, PCF, UDR, and Network Data Analytics Function (NWDAF). 5 IoT devices connected to an IoT slice via a gNB RAN and core network are loaded with DDoS code. The gNB gives the RAN part of the slice to the IoT devices while as core network functions provide the core network part of the slice. A real-time and lightweight method consisting of Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and honeypots is designed for DDoS attack detection in 5G IoT/mMTC slices. The system identifies the attack efficiently and is able to mitigate it with less computation and storage costs.

Abstract: Aspects of group signatures with probabilistic revocation are described. In one example employing these aspects, at least one computing device can map an alias token to an alias code comprising a plurality of alias code segments. Each of the alias code segments is based at least in part on a set of orthogonal codes. Also, each of the alias code segments corresponds to a segment of the alias token. A revocation code is based at least in part on a plurality of revoked alias codes. One of the alias code segments and a corresponding segment of the revocation code can be utilized to determine a revocation status of the alias token.
