Defence Against Dos Attacks Using a Partitioned Overlay Network
نویسنده
چکیده
According to general statistics, around thousands of DOS and DDOS attacks have been carried out in the years 2009 and 2010. Choosing this problem for research was because everything in the industrial or mechanical sector is now controlled over the network through applications thus, securing these networks against DOS attacks is very important because once compromised it can cause a major damage to the infrastructure. This paper’s idea revolves around the fact that hiding the network nodes mitigates DOS attack. This paper further extends the idea of node hiding with the architecture of a junkyard network where the suspected traffic will be routed and another overlay network which would contain the legitimate traffic to the proper destination.

Tolerating Denial-of-Service Attacks Using Overlay Networks - Impact of Overlay Network Topology
Proxy-network based overlays have been proposed to protect Internet Applications against Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks by hiding an application’s location. We study how a proxy network’s topology influences the effectiveness of location-hiding. We provide a general analysis of system dynamics under attack, and study how the speed of attack, speed of defense, and proxy network topology affect ...

Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on the Internet have become an immediate problem. As DDoS streams do not have common characteristics, currently available intrusion detection systems (IDS) cannot detect them accurately. As a result, defend DDoS attacks based on current available IDS will dramatically affect legitimate traffic. In this paper, we propose a distributed approach to defe...

Denial of Service (DoS) has become a prevalent threat in today’s networks. Motivated by an impressive variety of reasons and directed against an equally impressive variety of targets, DoS attacks are not as difficult to launch as one would expect. Protection against them is, however, disproportionately difficult. Despite the extensive research in recent years, DoS attacks continue to harm. In o...

Denial of service (DoS) attacks continue to threaten the reliability of networking systems. Previous approaches to protect networks from DoS attacks are reactive in that they wait for an attack to be launched before taking appropriate measures to protect the network. This leaves the door open for other attacks that use more sophisticated methods to mask their traffic. We propose an architecture...
