AboutAbout the lab
Exploring network operations and security
The Advanced Cyber Network Division of the Research Institute for Information Technology at Kyushu University studies network operation and security technologies.
Professor Koji Okamura works on network operation that takes power saving in communication equipment into account, as well as cybersecurity.
Assistant Professor Yoshiaki Kasahara studies quality monitoring of servers that provide information services, and intrusion detection that observes network traffic.
Key terms
- Intrusion detection
- A mechanism for finding unauthorized access to computers and networks.
- Virtualization
- A technology for running virtual computers on a single physical computer.
- Protocol
- A set of rules for exchanging data that computers follow when communicating with each other.

*Illustrative imagePower-Aware Network Operation
The division studies operation methods for advanced networks with power saving in communication equipment in mind. Wireless LAN systems are also listed among its research themes.
*Illustrative imageTelemedicine Using High-Definition Video
In collaboration with Kyushu University Hospital, the division has worked on demonstration experiments of telemedicine using high-definition video. It has also co-authored a paper on telemedicine.
*Illustrative imageServer Quality Monitoring and Anomaly Detection
As the number of servers providing information services grows, management has become more complex. With virtualization also in view, the division aims to build methods that reduce administrators' workload and enable efficient management and operation.
*Illustrative imageIntrusion Detection Through Traffic Monitoring
From the standpoint of an administrator of an organization's backbone network, the division researches and develops methods to monitor and detect unauthorized activity within the organization's network. It is examining passive collection of network traffic, classification that is not based on patterns, and anomaly detection using protocol characteristics.
