The Indoor Location project is under development which consists of four components:
1) An array of Bluetooth iBeacons.
2) A Location Database and it's associated Location Server.
3) An Emergency Services IP backbone network (ESINet), including an IP-based Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP).
4) An android application

The Indoor Location project is under development which consists of four components:
1) An array of Bluetooth iBeacons.
2) A Location Database and it's associated Location Server.
3) An Emergency Services IP backbone network (ESINet), including an IP-based Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP).
4) An android application

The caller is on the Main Campus - either inside the Main Campus building or outdoors. The caller makes a call using Emergency Call Application to campus security number. The Operator has a computer terminal on whose screen location of the caller is displayed. If the caller is outside the Main Campus Building, the location can be determined by using Google Location services.

In this project, I work as an administrator where I need to deploy the Bluetooth devices according to the map of the Main Campus building and handle the Bluetooth beacons, a location server, and all other components.

• Investigated the vulnerabilities in two black box IP Address which was given by the professor. Both IP Addresses are private IP Addresses.
• Gathered the information about IP Addresses by utilizing Nessus tool and then exploit the vulnerabilities by using a variety of tools.
• The tools that I used to determined vulnerabilities are NMAP, Nessus, Metasploit, Netcraft, whois, and Nikto.

• Designed, Developed, and Deployed the PHP applications on AWS.
• Installed and setup the Vagrant box in PowerShell to manage the AWS services using Command Line interface.
• Wrote a shell script to Create and Destroy the whole infrastructure.
• Environment: AWS EC2, RDS, Auto Scaling, S3, ELB, SNS, SQS, PHP5, GIT, PowerShell.

• The goal of this project was to allow the user to place an end to end call for Emergency services from a SIP Phone to Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) using an Emergency Services IP Network (ESINET).
• Used Lost and HELD Protocol to determine the location of the caller and all this process was tested by using Wireshark in Main Campus Test Bed.

• Installed and setup the SIP Client and server in the Web RTC lab and measured its key performance metrics Session Capacity and Session Rate according to IETF Drafts.
• Measured the SIP throughput and rate of sending invite/call with no error that a SIP Proxy can support.
• Utilized SIPp tool to generate the SIP traffic loads using shell script to drive a traffic generator.
• Obtained the SER results by testing an Asterisk IP PBX under various configuration and compared results with… Show more

As Network Security is a vast topic, my goal was to research on attacks and prevention methods and determined how OSI and TCP/IP model played an important role to provide SSL Encryption and additionally which security devices and controls are used to detect and protect our computer systems from unwanted intrusions.

• Investigated the behavior of both media under various environments using Wireshark Protocol Analyzer.
• Performed tests using various applications such as YouTube, Blackboard, Skype and Google Hangout and determined how a three-way handshake is established.

• Developed a desktop based application using JavaFX under MVC architecture.
• Collected all requirements and designed role-based model.
• Designed the FXML pages in Scene builder which helps to connect MYSQL database using JDBC driver.
• Involved CRUD operation and OOP concept like polymorphism, inheritance, interface, etc.

• Developed an Android app to remind you about the task that you to perform at the specific location.
• It allows you to create, edit and delete a task at the specific location and whenever you reached that location, it will notify you.
• The application was designed by using Google Map API, MySQL, and Java.

• The main objective of this project was to design a system that asked the user to scan his Fingerprint as an identity proof.
• The project used the Embedded System 8051 Microcontroller to design the application.
• Created a Biometric Voting Machine to understand the concept of voters accounted for onset of 16x2 LCD interface display.
