A novel smart multilevel security approach for secure data outsourcing in crisis

Area of Science:

• Computer Science
• Network Security
• Cybersecurity Architecture

Background:

• The Internet's expansion has introduced challenges in mobility, scalability, controllability, and security.
• Existing network paradigms have not fully resolved persistent security issues, particularly concerning multilevel data sharing.

Purpose of the Study:

• To propose a future network paradigm addressing multilevel security shortcomings in digital communications.
• To introduce a two-router network-based cybersecurity architecture for enhanced data sharing and security.

Main Methods:

• Development of a two-router network architecture for multilevel data sharing.
• Implementation of a scheduler to manage multilevel transmitted packet scheduling.
• Design and application of five novel algorithms to solve complex scheduling problems.
• Experimental validation and comparison with existing algorithms in the literature.

Main Results:

• The random-grouped classification with shortest scheduling algorithm (RGS) achieved the best performance at 37.7% with a minimal gap of 0.03.
• Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and optimality of the developed algorithms.
• The proposed approach proves practical for addressing two-machine scheduling problems.

Conclusions:

• The developed cybersecurity architecture effectively addresses multilevel security challenges.
• The proposed scheduling algorithms offer an optimal solution for multilevel data sharing and packet scheduling.
• This research provides a viable and practical approach for enhancing network security.
