Researching into new defence mechanisms against DoS attacks that are not simply attack blocking.

I now know that "carelessness" is a security risk

I thought that security measures were mainly based on the introduction of specific packages and manual responses to malicious attacks. However, after I enrolled at IISEC, I realised the need for a more personalised approach, with security measures to cover mistakes such as loss, and my horizons were broadened. I am currently researching the idea of penalising people in ways other than blocking, in order to avoid DoS attacks. This is because blocking has the disadvantage of creating various negative effects, but as we know, there is a lot of prior research, and I am struggling to find original and novel ideas.

The opportunity to interact with working people from all walks of life in a flat relationship

IIESC is also a great place for working people with different backgrounds to get to know each other in a flat relationship, regardless of their position in the company or the municipality. It must be very difficult to build these relationships in other places. We can also exchange information on a wide range of topics, from hardware to software.

Coming to IISEC is an efficient way to study

It's important to discuss with colleagues and family and decide which times of the day I go to IISEC to study. If you study at home, you may have other things to do, but at IISEC you can be sure that you will have time to study. Also, you can interact with various people. At weekday tea-time from 16:20 for 30 minutes, you have the opportunity to talk about your research ideas with people from different laboratories. There is no end to my interest in meeting people at IISEC.
