Title: Connecting Entropy-Based Detection Methods and Entropy to Detect Covert Timing Channels
Abstract: In this paper an entropy-based approach for detecting the covert timing channels is proposed. The detection of covert timing channels is the challenging task over the internet. Ordinary things such as existence of a file or time used for computation, have been the medium through which covert channel communicates. Covert timing channels are not easy to detect because these media are so numerous and frequently used. Different approaches are implemented to detect various covert timing channels. Existing techniques are efficient but have to adopt more than one approach. Applying more than one approach to detect the covert timing channels is the risk process. In this paper, only one approach is used by this efficiency is improved while applying this proposed technique improvements to be made for proposed entropy and corrected conditional entropy in detecting covert timing channels. An entropy-based approach is sensitive to the current covert timing channels.
