Advanced Network Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab uses a university network as its testbed to study the security of cyberspace.

AboutAbout the lab
Network research that goes beyond theory.
The Advanced Network Lab conducts research that solves problems arising in cyberspace by analyzing a wide variety of information.
Rather than stopping at theory or simulation, the lab validates its research on a research internet that is independent of the university.
For validation and evaluation, the lab also uses KITE (the campus backbone of Kyushu University), wireless LAN networks, firewall log data, and student survey data.
Its main research topics include network traffic analysis, zero trust networks, and improving the security of web applications.
Key terms
- Network traffic analysis
- A method of examining trends in the volume and destinations of data flowing over a line in order to detect anomalies and signs of attacks
- Zero trust network
- An approach that does not trust users or devices unconditionally, and verifies legitimacy at every connection
- Campus backbone
- The trunk lines of a campus network, connecting the buildings and departments of a university
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to solve problems in cyberspace by analyzing a wide variety of information. Its research does not stop at theory or simulation; it extends to validation and practical evaluation on networks that are actually in operation.
