Exploratory Analysis of Wi-Fi 6 Dynamic Resource Unit Sharing in Small-Scale Network Scenarios

This paper investigates dynamic Resource Unit (RU) allocation strategies for Wi-Fi~6 (IEEE 802.11ax) networks integrated with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), targeting the limitations of static RU scheduling under dynamic traffic conditions. We propose a dynamic RU allocation algorithm that maps TSN traffic classes to Wi-Fi~6 Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, including Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) and aligns TSN control with Ethernet-based TSN domains. The proposed solution is evaluated using the ns-3 DetNetWiFi framework developed by fortiss, focusing on time-sensitive traffic. Simulation results demonstrate improved network efficiency with reductions in latency, jitter, and packet loss compared to static RU allocation schemes. These findings highlight the potential of dynamic RU allocation to support deterministic communication requirements in Wi-Fi~6-based TSN deployments and to enhance the reliability of hybrid industrial networks.

A Small World of Bad Guys: Investigating the Behavior of Hacker Groups in Cyber-Attacks

This paper explores the behaviour of malicious hacker groups operating in cyberspace and how they organize themselves in structured networks. To better understand these groups, the paper uses Social Network Analysis (SNA) to analyse the interactions and relationships among several malicious hacker groups. The study uses a tested dataset as its primary source, providing an empirical analysis of the cooperative behaviours exhibited by these groups. The study found that malicious hacker groups tend to form close-knit networks where they consult, coordinate with, and assist each other in carrying out their attacks. The study also identified a "small world" phenomenon within the population of malicious actors, which suggests that these groups establish interconnected relationships to facilitate their malicious operations. The small world phenomenon indicates that the actor-groups are densely connected, but they also have a small number of connections to other groups, allowing for efficient communication and coordination of their activities.
