CyberSecurity Resilience of the Australian university
RMIT CCSRI working with in collaboration with the Australian Government Department of Education, Skills and Employment (the Department) along with the University Foreign Interference Taskforce and its members to deliver a solution to enhance cyber security across Australia’s university sector. The project is building on the previous work of the University Foreign Interference Taskforce (UFIT) in developing the Guidelines to Counter Foreign Interference in the Australian University Sector (the Guidelines).
Based on the objective, the specific aims are;
The deliverables of the project are: - 1. Establishment of a Trusted and nationally recognised Cyber Security Forum: -- includes the design, development and delivery of a sector-led, nationally recognised, and trusted forum to advance cyber-resilience, particularly in the context of foreign interference, across the university sector.
- 2. Developing standardised threat and countermeasure sharing mechanisms that are sector-specific to enhance their capabilities and resilience to contemporary threats, threat actors and responses to combat risks by:
-- Developing a standardised two-way mechanism amongst universities and Government to share threat intelligence, countermeasure best practice and threat models
-- Developing a standardised threat model for universities to assist in guiding investment and cyber security uplift; and
--• Developing a comprehensive suite of sharable best practice guidelines or “blueprints” that draw from existing Government risk information (e.g. Essential 8, Australian Information Security Manual, Practical Guidelines) that can be applied proportionate to each universities level of risk.

This research based development work focuses on ’Vehicle to Vulnerable Road Users (V2VRU) interactions’ for achieving Road Safety using existing technologies and also evolving Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. As the role of the Project Manager (PM), my responsibility involves maintaining all party collaboration and also conducting research and plan, design and development.
This Proof-of-Concept (PoC) project aims to develop a VRU road safety solution using emerging communication and technolgoical system to reduce collisions and enhance driver awareness of potential conflicts with people riding bicycles/escooter etc. The specific objectives for the project are as follows:
- Determine V2VRU system requirements
- Develop a PoC system
- Perform testing and demonstrations
This project is bound to NDA.

An UI/UX based Industry project focuses on creating a platform that stores memories of user so that it can be viewed later by future generations. A team with Nine active memebers from QUT and Aureolin Group tried to find an innovative way to preserve the memories of people and share them with the recipient after the demise of one who created the memories. The design and development challenges was to align rythimatically a set of features and set of instruction.
In this innovation, the user would create an account to instruct a number of services and at some point, they will be conveyed to the recipient. There is a social impact of it that we believed will create love and affections towards the person who sends the memories. Also, it helps in creating memorable moments and the recipient feel special. The final artifacts of this project will collect, preserve, and share memories according to user preference. The project outcome is fruitful, and at any point, the platform may launch. Note that, the whole work is under NDA, thus I am unable to share the technical details.

The primary objective of this research is twofold. Firstly, identifying the feasibility and effectiveness of CIoT platform-based UAV (i.e., drone) services and their use cases. This also includes service designing and modeling from similar research and models, software engineering, and distributed systems in consideration of service functionalities, behavior, and quality. Secondly, the recommendation and service composition of drone services for commercial applications as DaaS...
Based on the objective, the specific aims are;
- 1. To design a novel Drone as a Service (DaaS) framework following standard SOA and web services principle in the CIoT domain.
- 2. To conduct service selection in quality-based standard ways and mesh-up different operations across multiple services to form a composed service.
- 3. To establish trust, reputation, and security across the boundaries of DaaS technologies.
Over the past few years, we have experienced great technological advancements in the information and communication field, which has significantly contributed to reshaping the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) concept. Evolving from the platform of a collection of sensors aiming to collect data, the data exchanged paradigm among vehicles is shifted from the local network to the cloud. With the introduction of cloud and edge computing along with ubiquitous 5G mobile network, it is expected to see the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in data processing and smart decision imminent. CIoV, which is abbreviated from Cognitive Internet of Vehicle, is one of the recently proposed architectures of the technological evolution in transportation, and it has amassed great attention. It introduces cloud-based artificial intelligence and machine learning into the transportation system. This research focuses to identify the future expectations of CIoV and it's security issues. Based on this idea, a conference paper is published so far, this can be found here.
