With the development of the information age, the process of global networking continues to deepen, and the cyberspace security has become an important support for today’s social functions and social activities. Web applications which have many security risks are the most direct interactive way in the process of the Internet activities. That is why the web applications face a large number of network attacks. Interpretive dynamic programming languages are easy to lean and convenient to use, they are widely used in the development of cross-platform web systems. As well as benefit from these advantages, the web system based on those languages is hard to detect errors and maintain the complex system logic, increasing the risk of system vulnerability and cyber threats. The attack defense of systems based on interpretive dynamic programming languages is widely concerned by researchers. Since the advance of endogenous security technologies, there are breakthroughs on the research of web system security. Compared with traditional security defense technologies, these technologies protect the system with their uncertainty, randomness and dynamism. Based on several common network attacks, the traditional system security defense technology and endogenous security technology of web application based on interpretive dynamic languages are surveyed and compared in this paper. Furthermore, the possible research directions of those technologies are discussed.

The increasing vehicles have brought convenience to people as well as many traffic problems. The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is an extension of the intelligent transportation system based on the Internet of Things (IoT), which is the omnibearing network connection among “Vehicles, Loads, Clouds”. However, IoV also faces threats from various known and unknown security vulnerabilities. Traditional security defense methods can only deal with known attacks, while there is no effective way to deal with unknown attacks. In this paper, we show an IoV system deployed on a Mimic Common Operating Environment (MCOE). At the sensing layer, we introduce a lightweight cryptographic algorithm, LBlock, to encrypt the data collected by the hardware. Thus, we can prevent malicious tampering of information such as vehicle conditions. At the application layer, we firstly put the IoV system platform into MCOE to make it dynamic, heterogeneous and redundant. Extensive experiments prove that the sensing layer can encrypt data reliably and energy-efficiently. And we prove the feasibility and security of the Internet of Vehicles system platform on MCOE.

With the tighter integration of power system and Information and Communication Technology (ICT), power grid is becoming a typical cyber physical system (CPS). It is important to analyze the impact of the cyber event on power system, so that it is necessary to build a co-simulation system for studying the interaction between power system and ICT. In this paper, a cyber physical power system (CPPS) co-simulation platform is proposed, which includes the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation function. By using flexible interface, various simulation software for power system and ICT can be interconnected into the platform to build co-simulation tools for various simulation purposes. To demonstrate it as a proof, one simulation framework for real life cyber-attack on power system control is introduced. In this case, the real life denial-of-service attack on a router in automatic voltage control (AVC) is simulated to demonstrate impact of cyber-attack on power system.
