Abstract: The rapid integration of technology in educational institutions has led to the widespread adoption of Student Management Information Systems (SMIS) to streamline administrative processes and enhance student experiences. However, these systems are increasingly becoming targets for cyber-attacks due to the sensitive nature of the data they store, such as personal information, academic records, and financial details. This study evaluates the existing vulnerabilities in university SMIS implementations, focusing on their potential impact on student data security. Through a comprehensive analysis of various university SMIS across different institutions, this research identifies common security flaws, including inadequate access controls, outdated software, lack of encryption, and improper data handling practices. Additionally, the study highlights the implications of these vulnerabilities, such as unauthorized data access, data breaches, identity theft, and potential reputational damage to institutions. By examining these risks, the study provides a framework for understanding the critical areas that require immediate attention and offers recommendations for enhancing the security posture of university SMIS.

Abstract: The following study concerns exploring the performance of multiple regression algorithms of machine learning in the context of house pricing, while attempting to enhance the precision and offering practical implications for the stakeholders in the real estate industry. Using dataset that is collected from the real estate platforms, property records and other fresh data obtained directly from the real estate agencies, models like Random Forest, Gradient Boosting Machines (GBM), XGBoost, Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Neural Networks are examined. It also entails carrying out massive data preprocessing, feature construction, and other computationally expensive steps such as tuning of hyperparameters for achieving high accuracy. The residual plots indicate the prediction accuracy of each of the 23 models of some levels and weakness in the various methods employed in the models. For example, Random Forest and XG Boost exhibit typical non-linear patterns to capture, but they have heteroscedasticity to some extent in residuals. On the other hand, standard models like the SVR with the linear kernel show some level of failure in dealing with the interleaved pattern between the data, resulting in systematic biases. Thus, it is crucial to choose a right model depending on the data set properties and certain market conditions are considered in the study. Thus, it is seen that this research adds to the literature on machine learning real estate by offering a step-by-step comparison of these five advanced regression techniques that will be useful in determining the effectiveness of such techniques in the prediction of housing prices. Acquired knowledge is expected to benefit, for instance, real estate agents, investors, and policy-makers towards increasing market transparency leading to efficiency.

Abstract: The prediction of crop yields internationally is a crucial objective in agricultural research. Thus, this study implements 6 regression models (Linear, Tree, Gradient Descent, Gradient Boosting, K Nearest Neighbors, and Random Forest) to predict crop yields in 37 developing countries over 27 years. Given 4 key training parameters, insecticides (tonnes), rainfall (mm), temperature (Celsius), and yield (hg/ha), it was found that our Random Forest Regression model achieved a determination coefficient (r2) of 0.94, with a margin of error (ME) of .03. The models were trained and tested using the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations’ data, along with the World Bank Climate Change Data Catalog. Furthermore, each parameter was analyzed to understand how varying factors could impact overall yield. We used unconventional models, contrary to generally used Deep Learning (DL) and Machine Learning (ML) models, combined with recently collected data to implement a unique approach in our research. Existing scholarship would benefit from understanding the most optimal model for agricultural research, specifically using the United Nations’ data.

Abstract: The tremendous growth of the usage of computers over the network and development in applications running on various platforms captures the attention toward network security. This paradigm exploits security vulnerabilities on all computer systems that are technically difficult and expensive to solve. Hence intrusion is used as a key to compromise the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of a computer resource. The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) plays a vital role in detecting anomalies and attacks in the network. In this work, the data mining concept is integrated with IDS to identify the relevant, hidden data of interest for the user effectively and with less execution time. Four issues such as Classification of Data, High Level of Human Interaction, Lack of Labeled Data, and Effectiveness of Distributed Denial of Service Attack are being solved using the proposed algorithms like the EDADT algorithm, Hybrid IDS model, Semi-Supervised Approach, and Varying HOPERAA Algorithm respectively. Our proposed algorithm has been tested using the KDD Cup dataset. The entire proposed algorithm shows better accuracy and reduced false alarm rate when compared with existing algorithms. Threat intelligence integration is a critical component of modern cyber security strategies, helping organizations stay one step ahead of cyber threats and minimize security risks.

Abstract: Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is an emerging field of networking with the miniaturization of sensors, increase in Bandwidth (BW) of channels and high speed internetwork of connectivity, WBAN is gaining importance. Any biological stimulus from a human body is converted to an electrical signal to be standardized and is forwarded to the internetwork, an internetwork is a huge network of networks which consists of thousands or even millions of nodes and links. This work considers the realisation of a human body implanted with biomedical sensors, operating wireless protocols of variable frequency, and measuring more than one physiological parameter of the body. Various nodes that are linked together to form a network of biomedical or other sensors placed at the nodes make up a wireless body area network. The implementation and introduction of the intra-body network were covered in our earlier publication, "Realization of Wireless Body Area Network utilising GNS3 tool for Health Monitoring," which has the DOI 10.17148/IJARCCE.2018.7459. Army personnel who are located in remote locations need continuous monitoring of their health and the packets need to be sent to the base station. Each base station needs to be connected to the headquarters (HQ). Also the information needs to be authenticated and encrypted. Any leak in the information or any intrusion will lead to advantage for the enemy. In the project paper we concentrate on building a network, authenticating the network and encrypting the same, we make use of various routing protocols to find the best path and forecasting path between the sender and the receiver. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) and EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) are preferred. We also incorporate 2-way Authentication for traffic. This setup enables healthcare providers to aggregate data from multiple patients, enhancing clinical decision-making and supporting collaborative care models. For instance, healthcare professionals can analyze aggregated data for research purposes, such as understanding trends in chronic disease prevalence.
