Academic Projects:

Graduate Class Project: IPv6 conformance and performance testing

Study various migration techniques of IPv6 protocol and simulate and

test network for delay, throughput, variable length packet and fixed

length packet. OPNET was used to

. Developed a virtual network of Cisco 7200 series routers, Ethernet

links, and work stations using OPNET

. Configured component attributes like supported protocols (IGP, RIP,

IPv6/IPv4), IP address allocation, IPv6 transition mechanism

(configured tunneling, dual stack, automatic tunneling)

. Test simulated network connectivity with ICMPv6/v4 pings

. Generate packets (variable/fixed size, TCP/VoIP) and test network

for performance

. Test latency of network for various transition mechanisms

Graduate Class Project: Network Security and Analysis

A situation was simulated virtually using SecondLife where a team of 5

hackers have attacked a network for identity theft purpose. I was part

of a two member team of forensic analysts tasked with investigating

who hackers are and at same time tackle future attacks being planned

by hackers for subsequent identity thefts and to prevent our

investigation. I was responsible for following:

. Generate security certificates for authorized person using OpenSSL

on Ubuntu OS

. Transfer certificates through SSH

. Investigate encrypted video, audio, and chat messages, and

stereographic images

. Decrypt captured messages using OpenSSL RSA algorithm

. TCP, HTTP, SIP, UDP, and RIP Packet capture from network being

hacked using Wireshark

. Monitor network for DoS (Denial-of-Service) attack

. Identify and revoke unauthorized use of security certificates

Graduate Class Research Project: Email as a service cloud

Design of secure email as a cloud service for various applications

. Study of the system vulnerabilities and requirements.

. Determine the system protocols and security measures to undertake.

. Securing Network infrastructure by setting the firewall and IDS

rule sets.

. Secure mail server and contents by securing access, malware

scanning, content filtering.

. Incorporate various application like mobile, social networks and

location aware in to cloud

Class Research project: Link design of VSAT systems

Link designed for VSAT systems for different scenarios - financial

network, Rural communication, and internet via VSAT.

. Determine user requirements like site or location of the

application carrier and return link data rates,

. Designed link considering satellite location, access (DA-TDMA/SCPC

DAMA), frequency bands (Ku-band/C-band), link availability

calculation and trade-off between signal quality and availability

Class Research Project: Deployment and testing of a health data

collection system

. Researched and developed requirements for web-based software

instrumentation for collecting health questionnaire, physical

examination, and lab data for a large health study using at home

air-cards.

. Created test plan for asynchronous collaboration and path and

branch coverage

. Designed usability test for testing capacity of system

Class system development Project: Design of memory leakage software

test tool

. Defined requirements and designed a system to detect memory

leakage and free memory

. Developed and coded algorithm using C++ to find unnecessary memory

allocation and locate associated code segment

Undergraduate Senior Project - Embedded System Based Ethernet

Controller

Designed an Ethernet controller to establish communication between

machines thereby connecting them in network such that all machines can

be controlled and maintained remotely by single person.

. Study requirements, select components, design of artwork,

soldering components and testing PCB.

. Design and code chip (8051 simulation language and Visual basic)

and do unit testing of code

. Implementation of module on Network using Visual Basic 6.0 as a

front end tool and 89c52 processor
