Although network address translation (NAT) provides various advantages, it may cause potential threats to network operations. For network administrators to operate networks effectively and securely, it may be necessary to verify whether an assigned IP address is using NAT or not. In this paper, we propose a supervised learning-based active NAT device (NATD) identification using port response patterns. The proposed model utilizes the asymmetric port response patterns between NATD and non-NATD. In addition, to reduce the time and to solve the security issue that supervised learning approaches exhibit, we propose a fast and stealthy NATD identification method. The proposed method can perform the identification remotely, unlike conventional methods that should operate in the same network as the targets. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective, exhibiting a F1 score of over 90%. With the efficient features of the proposed methods, we recommend some practical use cases that can contribute to managing networks securely and effectively.

The increase of client devices along with the growth of internet access currently affects to security threats at the user's identity. Identifiers that commonly used today, such as SSID, IP address, MAC address, cookies, and session IDs have a weakness, which is easy to duplicate. Computer identification based on clock skew is an identification method that is not easily duplicated because it is based on the hardware characteristics of the device. Clock skew is the deviation of the clock to the true time which causes each clock to run at a slightly different speed. This study aims to determine the effect of network types to the clock skew stability as a reliable device identification method. This research was conducted on five client computers which running windows and linux operating systems. The measurement was conducted based on three different types of area networks, i.e., LAN, MAN, and WAN. The skew estimation was done using two linear methods i.e., linear programming and linear regression. The measurement results show that the most stable clock skew is found on the LAN measurement because it meets the threshold tolerance limit i.e., ±1 ppm. Skew estimation using linear programming method has better accuracy than linear regression method.

In this paper, a novel device identification method is proposed to improve the security of Visible Light Communication (VLC) in 5G networks. This method extracts the fingerprints of Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to identify the devices accessing the 5G network. The extraction and identification mechanisms have been investigated from the theoretical perspective as well as verified experimentally. Moreover, a demonstration in a practical indoor VLC-based 5G network has been carried out to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of this approach. The fingerprints of four identical white LEDs were extracted successfully from the received 5G NR (New Radio) signals. To perform identification, four types of machine-learning-based classifiers were employed and the resulting accuracy was up to 97.1%.
