Advanced Networking Technology and Security (ANTS) Research Lab
The Advanced Networking Technology and Security (ANTS) research lab at our university is home to state-of-the-art research and development of technologies for next-generation networks and critical infrastructures. It includes a security testing facility funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation, a private research cloud environment and a software-defined networking testbed. Ongoing research projects in the lab include:
- Detection of insider threats
- Dynamic channel allocation for cognitive radio
- Intrusion-detection systems for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) networks
- Multimedia delivery and quality of experience in the cloud
- Network survivability in large-scale failure scenarios
- Privacy and reliability
- Secure biometric-access technologies
- Service aggregation in wireless infrastructure
- Situational awareness systems for critical infrastructures
- Smart-city infrastructures
- Smart-grid security
- Smart homes
- Software-defined network (SDN) architectures
- Vehicular network security and privacy
On average, approximately 15 graduate and five undergraduate students collaborate with the research projects at ANTS lab.
