    Project :   iSecure
    Description :  iSecure is comprehensive security appliance with stateful inspection Firewall and IPSEC/IKE based VPN. Firewall supports several ALGs, cyber-defense engine and powerful session lookup engine. VPN is based on latest IPSEC and IKE RFCs and supports preshared key and RSA/DSA certificate authentication.
    My role:  Team lead 
    My contribution:
    ·	Stateful inspection Firewall and IPSEC/IKE software was bought from Intoto Inc, Santa Clara USA.  Ported the code successfully onto Linux platform. 
    ·	Developed auto boot procedure on compact flash.
    ·	Minimized linux kernel to fit in 8MB of compact flash.
    ·	Developed ‘Dynamic DNS’ module to provide dynamic IP address with fixed static domain name and integrated with PPP and DHCP Client components of iSecure. Whenever PPP or DHCP clients get new IP address from the ISP, the IP address information gets changed in dynamicdns.org via this module.
    ·	Developed SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) client and integrated with iSecure.
    ·	Submitted IETF IPSEC draft on Dead Peer Tunnel Detection. This solves the problem of finding out dead tunnels and establishes the tunnel. Currently coding this and will be integrating with IKEv1 software.
    ·	Participate in IPSEC/focus-ids/fw-wiz mailing list.
    ·	Evaluated snort IDS/Intoto Inline IPS solution to integrate with iSecure.
    
    
    Project:  Packet Capturing with Kernel Module
    This kernel module enables to capture all the packets from the kernel. This module uses a kernel macro dev_add_pack in doing so. An application program to analyse the traffic flowing in the network uses this mechanism.

    Platform:   Linux 2.4
    
    
    
    
    Academic Projects
    Project name:	Digital logic design (electronic lock simulation)
    Description 
    This simulated design provides security. This lock calculates reaction time of the person and unlocks only when it founds the reaction time be authenticated. The person has to react to glow of LED located near the keypad by pressing an appropriate key. The design is implemented in three steps. In the first step the keys pressed on the keypad are decoded into binary format. The second stage involves control of LED and display unit. The last step is to check for authentication. This lock is different from conventional locks, which accepts reaction time and PIN rather than PIN only by which this can provide more security.

     Role: project leader
    
    Project name: 	Automatic room light controller
    Description: This is a hardware project, which helps us to control glowing of lights during nighttime. The hardware senses the entrance of people at the door and switches on the lights. The counter increments when a person enters a room and displays number of persons in the room. The hardware also detects persons leaving and decrements the count. When the count is zero, the lights are switched off. There is a photo sensor, which makes the hardware to work only during nights.
    Type: hardware project
